my dogs be mistaken for ,akita, husky, inuit, malamute, shepherd,wolf, cross breed, and even a corgi lol.

 

im only guessing but is that a norweigan elkhound? im not that familiar with my spitz breeds so i apologise if im wrong!

i'd go with that and also apologise if wrong.

Many years ago ex wife was bottle feeding a goat kid (not my idea) Because it was on 4 hourly feeds had to take it with us to a show.

You would be surprised (or perhaps not) how many lurcher boys, complete with tattoos and earrings, asked if the dog (goat) had saluki in it.

I've been asked if my oldest Kelpie, Rust (the one in my avatar) is a husky, collie, alsation cross, basenji, fox, wolf, rescue dog and my personal favourite: "he looks like a bonsai alsation."

 

My cream kelpie has been described as an Ibizan hound, dingo, fox and lurcher.

 

Now that I've got three, most people realise that they're the same breed but assume I've been really kind and rehomed three mongrels from the same family.
