Looks like he has a lot of Lab in him. He’ll make a wonderful pet.

Old joke.....

lost dog who is blind, has three legs, is missing his right ear, had his tail run over, was accidentally neutered and answers to the name "Lucky."

Or is it just the way the picture is taken?

You can't do better than a Corgi, IMHO.

Me too, but the landlord allows one pet per household. Already have a chihuahua.

That dog is a leaner. I wouldn't have a critter that leans on me. It's the right size for flying lessons, though.

No, none of my animals are leaners.

No, she has a non breed standard fluffy coat, a gene that 25% have. They aren't qualified to show (because they would win them all) :{)

Governor Browns popular pooch is a Corgi. Maybe the two could keep each other company?
