joey72 10 Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 (edited) Hi everyone... As promised on a previous post here's an update on the pup I rescued..... Miss summer AKA the shredder! Below are the most recent photos of her (less than a week). She's currently standing at 19" tts.. And weighs 13.4k The burning questions I have as always are: what do you think her mix is? How much bigger do you think she will get? She has a short coat, flat about 1 inch in length with some fanning on the tail, neck and flanks.... So my guess is Collie/whippet/greyhound? I look forward to reading yr responses Cheers Jo Edited December 1, 2014 by joey72 Quote Link to post

shaaark 10,789 Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 (edited) Certainly doesn't look a bull x, so that's a +. Nice pup . Does look collie/whip/grey, at 19" and 6 months now, I'd say she end up 22"-23" Edited December 1, 2014 by shaaark 1 Quote Link to post

shaaark 10,789 Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Could be worse, the dog looks comfortable and well cared for, not like some of the horror stories we've seen on here recently! By the way, I know you're not having a dig tb25 5 Quote Link to post

Had a staff do exactly the same years ago I''ve never used a harness before... A friend recommend I try it to see if she would pull less.. and it worked a treat! She's pretty good off the lead, runs flat out for a little while then walks slightly out front of me.... She definitely hasn't been blessed with the graceful run of a whip/grey, she's very gangly and heavy footed haha Quote Link to post

socks 32,253 Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Lol socks..... I take it you don't approve of a working dog in a raspberry coloured coat..... Awe we are girls after all I don't see the need for one the dog has a perfectly good coat on its body already and it's hardly cold is it ... All that coat will do is stop the dogs natural coat from getting weather resistant and nice and thick and potentially cause the dog to overheat ....... Quote Link to post
