Border Collies, Australian Shepherds, All Herding breeds, Tell Me About Yours

The kittens were cute too!! And the rabbits!! And the Lab puppies haha

I knew you'd like the labs. I only had eyes for Aussies and kittens. I recorded them. I had to leave before the bunnies.

I'm getting another Aussie. I cannot deny it anymore.

Two of mine were giant mooses. 70-80 pounds, and definitely over the height standard. I measured Sunny and she's around 26 inches tall. I can't imagine how big the males get. You can line up 20 unrelated Aussies and everyone would be different for size, weight, and coat. It's a very diverse breed.

I did! They were adorable!! And you’ll have to watch the bunnies lol they were so cute. And they also had the Aussies and Labs playing and Lab and bunnies haha

And glad you’ve finally decided!!!

And oh wow!!! I had no idea there was so much variety or that they got so big!! I figured with the standard most dogs would fall within it haha figured working ones wouldn’t but didn’t realize show ones could vary so much too. Or that females could be so big!!

She's a good looking old girl. You can ask whatever you want. Dark tongue usually means chow mix.

Good looking lady actually
I was thinking some chow was in her

She is 14 years old!

Oh wow she’s old! She looks great for 14

I’d say chow cause of the tongue (although not all chow mixes have purple tongues and other breeds can occasionally have it as well but she looks chow like too) and maybe Alaskan Malamute? She looks very Malamute like and most wolf hybrids are mixed with a Northern breed like an Alaskan Malamute, Siberian Husky, etc. but a lot of the northern breeds and breed mixes can look like wolves without actually being one too. But either way she is gorgeous.

Wolf not Malamute and Chow if you chose you could do DNA but would not add or subtract to your love to her

Oops, missed that for some reason. I fixed my post.

Looks Samoyed to me. I don't know if that was their question though.
