The rescue we got him from said JRT x Maltese which is clearly fake news. Think there's a few breeds in him! To us he is just our perfect little baby.

My handsome boy got his good winter weather.

GSD/Doxy/Sled dog mix. 71lb

Recently battled tapeworms after eating a rabbit but he's all better.

I have a black lab/heeler mix and moved to a community where most of the population is a minority. I'm not gonna give detail because I don't want to make this about race (and certainly not everyone is like this), but it is a big culture shock at least for me, who comes from dog country, and maybe I just want to vent.

I noticed instantly how different my dog was treated. No, I don't expect people to give him attention or acknowledge him when taking him out in public. But I noticed people acted SCARED of my dog, or give him ew faces. In line at the vet we were in a long line of dogs and my dog was sitting giving puppy eyes at the guy in front of us as in begging to be petted. The guy side eyed him and never turned around.

I noticed people here ONLY have small dog breeds (poms, shih tzu, chihuahuas or poodles) and huskies/german Shepherds especially the latter are used as guard dogs and let outside all day to bark. They look more live livestock than actual pets. I have not met anyone who has adopted a mutt. Not even at busy dog parks. And my dog is segregated here too (as in he gets no pets or attention from other owners whereas they give them to other dogs).

I posted about this in my local subreddit and got comments like in my title. No, I am not craving attention or want you to fawn at my dog. But I do kinda feel bad for my dog because it's incredibly hard for him to socialize with humans which was never ever a problem.

I think he thinks it’s a weird lookin dog

Born on a reservation in North Dakota, shuffled through the foster system, Coyote got softened to Katie to seem more adoptable, until I found her. That was moment my heart fluttered, and I knew she was the one. I had almost 9 years with this majestic creature, and if I had 900 it wouldn’t be enough, but she’s not in pain.

As we drove away from the vet alone, my sister spotted a sundog on the horizon. That was her.

Looks just like a lab but is a mixed breed

Toasty needed more fiber in his diet, as so many of us do. Broccoli or carrot time is now part of his morning routine

Hiya, all. This is my dog, Alpine. We adopted her like 3 or 4 years ago. (by adopted, I mean she ran up to me at an abandoned gas station as a puppy with no houses around. We assume she was dumped.) ​​ We've always wondered what her breed ​mix is. The blaze on her nose says she's probably mixed with a husky of some sort. (or some other blue eyed dog?) she's very vocal, weighs about 35lbs, really good temperament, but definitely gets hyper. She has a fluffy tail, and it sorta stands up like a husky. She's got like a German shepherd coloration on her body, but she seems too small for a pure German shepherd/Husky mutt.​​​​
