It's no surprise to me that Chihuahuas aren't really dogs. Ours (Medina is her name) thinks she not a dog and hates when you tell her she is. She also only likes her own kind.

You forgot the quotes around "honored."

I was adopted by a Carolina Dog not long ago. Here is a picture

my dog family http://http://midgardproject.org/P1010024.JPG Two years ago I moved to Georgia near Ft Stewart and pretty much in the middle of a swamp. About six months ago we were burning some trash and noticed that a dog came out of the woods went right into the fire and started picking out trash to eat from the middle of the fire. She must have been very hungry to do that and so we started leaving out food for her. Before long she started staying at the house full time. A friend of mine on seeing her said the dog looked like a dingo as she had ears that stood up all the time and had a hooked tail. I decided to find out if this dog was Australian and I came upon the Carolina dog site. That was surprising she looked just like those dogs. Well not long after she showed up she went into heat and another one of these dogs shows up from out of the woods but he was quite abit shyer and never stayed around. Needless to say she had puppies a few weeks ago.

I am not trying to sell these puppies (I am going to give them away mostly I will be keeping two out of the nine puppies) if they are Carolina Dogs I am more concerned about the breed continuing with as much genetic diversity as possible. So if they are this breed I want to make they go to the right people. I have had very little luck contacting anyone at the University of SC or any of the breeders about the dogs and I don't have the money to register all ten of these dogs or any knowledge of how to do it.

No. I spoke with him on this subject on another thread, Dixie Dingo.

I'm still dealing with a number of abandoned (Katrina) dogs myself.
