  • You know, when I think of dogs I think of poodles. Or labs. Or Cairn terriers. Or mutts.

    I can't say as how Abyssinian Sand Terriers come to mind.

    Or Affenpinschers.

    Alopekis?

    Appenzeller Sennenhunde?

    Catahoula Leopard dog?

    Fila Brasileiro?

    Groenendael?

    Hovawart?

    Lagotto Romagnolo?

    Here's one I like:  the Mudi.  ("Get that Mudi dog out of my kitchen!")

    I'd think the pet insurance website at which I found these was making 'em up, but can't think why they would, so they must be on the level.  Do you suppose anyone actually owns any of them, though? 

    Have no idea what a Xoloitzcuintli looks like, but I want one.

  • Anne, dear, I think Los has been a bad influence on you. This just sounds so much like one of her posts it scares me.

    Be afraid. Be very afraid!

  • That is certainly a thought to give one pause.

    Or paws?

    BTW, the Xoloitzcuintli? What a take-in. Turns out that's just a fancified term for a Mexican hairless, which was also listed. Why list the same breed more than once? Just use the most common name and let it go at that.

  • I've heard of Affenpinscher. I'm not sure what "pinscher" means in German, but "affen" means "apes." What WERE those dogs bred to do? :-0

  • Me? I want a Catahoula Leopard dog. Sounds like just the ticket for my bi-annual leopard hunts!
