Well we had one of those moments a couple of weeks ago when yet again we got asked what breed of dog Sydney is whilst out walking him. The standard answer of we are not 100% sure but we think he is a Schnoodle was starting to wear a little thin. So we started to look into getting hime DNA tested.
It wasn't as expensive as we imagined so two weeks ago we sent off his samples and over the weekend the results came back. Now to say they are not what we expected is a bit of an understatement. There are a few more breeds in there then we had initially thought.
25% Bichon Frise, 25% Chihuahua, 25% Toy Poodle (now this is one that we had guessed but no prizes for that with his coat), 12.5% Pomeranian and 12.5% Minature Schnauzer. A right old mash up of small dogs. Well I guess we know where he gets his size from.
Now individually I don't think there is a single dog on that list that we would have chosen to own. But somehow mashing them altogether has created some sort of desirable dog with a character far bigger then his size would suggest.
But now intrigue has got the better of me again because now I want to know what his little mates look like and what has become of those.
