Is that a Bichon and a Cavalier (sp) King Spaniel?

I don't have one - I "got it" as the result of the quiz Lady Jag posted.

I dunno much about them, except that to me they look almost like a retriever with a poodle coat. Strange combination!

NOPE - On your left meet Daisy, she's a shi-tzu/poodle mix and Lilly on the right, Maltese/poodle mix. That's an old picture, they both have short ears now and I kee them in puppy cuts and they're so freaking cute!

Has he ever gotten to play with sheep yet?

No, but he does love to play with the other dogs, and he tries to herd the cats, but they don't appreciate it very much. :-)

Are you others Australian Shepherds as well?

No. Charlie we got as a puppy, but the other two were rescued dogs.

The oldest is a White German Sheppard we got when he was 5 (now 12) from an abusive family, and the other one is a Collie-Doberman mix we picked up at the pound when she was one. She's now 11.

Sounds like you have your hands full! I've never heard of a white German Shepherd. I love them though, such pretty dogs. Which breed is dominant in your doberman/collie mix?

White German Shepherds look really cool.

The other one is definitely a collie at heart.

Your Rott is darling!
Check my Rott pix in #63....


She was afraid of the vacuum also. No overbite - however...
