Guess The Breed!!! Dog Edition!!!!

[Fancy Feathers]

Those ears are priceless

I know, right? They're cropped like that, so unique though!

Azores Cattle Dog

Otherwise known as Cao de Fila de Sao Miguel!
Figures you would get it, I stumbled across them searching for one of your dogs a while back!

So, after talking with my daughter's Showmanship instructor (who shows and breeds Aussie Cattle Dogs), and seeing how well she does with the dogs, I am thinking about getting her a puppy to raise of her own. Our Standards already are quite ingrained that I am the alpha of the pack. So, she has it narrowed down already that she wants either a Kooikerhondje or a Portuguese Water Dog.
She has good taste!!!

Although, I would find a Staby quite a tasteful choice

Here is one for you all to try. I know for Loth and Kevin it is going to be too easy, but.....


It has the face of Chewbacca!

Can you find Kooikerhondje in the US? I've met some nice PWD, good choice, both!

Pyrenees Sheepdog?

Pyrenees Sheepdog?

You got it!

Yes, both are wonderful. There are a few breeders here in the US. One is actually just over in Wisconsin and another in Illinois. The price is very steep, but worth it if it is a friend for her for many years, and they are a very healthy breed from what I have read. She will do well with whichever breed she chooses though. She actually came back down last night and said "Mom, if a Kooiker is too expensive, I will go with a less expensive breed. I don't want to use all of your money up." What a sweetheart! Just for that I want to get her the most expensive! No, I don't judge dogs based on how much they cost! I am just saying, what a big heart my little girl has! She wanted a Border Collie at first, but I won't get a herder like that without a job to keep it busy.
There is a girl who has a Visla in her obedience group. There is a Great Dane, a long and short haired Doxie pair, Jack Russells, some mixes, a Rottweiler who has to be muzzled to be there, and a few others. It is a nice mix of kids and dogs - almost all girls at the leash though. My daughter likes the people in the group and loves our dogs, so it is going well. I will keep you all updated on our puppy quest though

 

[Fancy Feathers]

She does sound like a sweetheart! Very considerate

 

[Minniechickmama]

Okay, first I am going to try the obvious in case you are just messing with us to make us think it is going to be some foreign breed that just looks like it, but how about
German Shorthair Pointer?

 

[Minniechickmama]

Upon closer examination, maybe it is an English Pointer? The face is larger and jowls heavier than the GSP.

DANG! Does everyone on this thread also have a Friday night social life? What gives? Get your priorities straight!!!
Dog game first!

Quote: It's kind of funny that they crop their ears to make them look so teddy bear like because Ciao Filas are very serious dogs.
