    Just had to share!
    In my hunt for a dog.. I may have found the one.

    He's a stray that came in to work last week. If he isn't claimed by Monday, he is available for adoption.

    He's so darn cute!

    How cute! He reminds me a little of Benji!

    He's so sweet. I could just eat him up!

    I hope you get him, let us know.

    Also, we'll need more pictures and a name. :)

    Hehe. If I get him I will post more. The doctor things I should call him Mowglie.

    I can't have a dog for another 3 months, so it's a long shot, unless I can find someone to take him or he stays at the clinic.

    If you lived close by I'd take him in a heartbeat, but you probably wouldn't get him back. ;)

    Mowglie is cute, jungle book is one of my favorite cartoons.

    Benji is cute too though, and he looks like Benji.

    AGH! Too cute!

    Taking all bets!

    I'm going for Poodle x Maltese ;)

    I hope you get to keep him, he really is adorable.

    I agree... Maltapoo. I had one for 13 years. She was the best dog I have ever had! I bet he will be even more adorable once he has his haircut and bath.

    I have to disagree - to me, looks like a Cockapoo. And he's about 15 pounds.

    Not to disagree with our newly minted Dogs Expert, but I do have a definitive identification






    It's a DOG

    That's exactly the kind of "dawg" that I want to get for my Mama. She's kind of lonely at the house by herself now .

    He looks like a great one. I'll bet he's very smart . I think he looks like Benji too Artlady.

    I hope it works out to where you can take him home. Will you spoil him? Sure, why not?

    Well, there are his points toward re-certification for today.



    Whatever his parents were, he just begs to be cuddled.

    I missed this before!

    I would think that a Poodle/Cocker would need regular exercise as Poodles are a fairly energetic breed... just something to consider if your mother is older.
    Breeds like Shih Tzus are great because they don't need a lot of exercise (they are very much lap dogs) and they look (kind of) similar...
    Only problem is all breeds with longer hair need a fair amount of grooming (daily brushing plus 6 weekly clipping) ;)

    Yeah, this dog is a ball of energy. He's not neutered yet, but thankfully he isn't the type to lift his leg on everything. He's pretty young though.

    Give him time hehe

    I really do hope you can find a place for him to stay until you move.
    Whether he be a Cockapoo or a Poodle x Cocker he's a real cutie :p

    Altenweg agrees: Are you sure that you don't just love a good a$$? ;)

    Oh yes! I am a huge fan of the bottom. But that's a different thread.

    He looks just like him Dahlia! :eek:

    I don't see many poodles without clipped faces, or in the color apricot (I have never actually seen one in the flesh :eek: ) so after seeing that he may even be a purebred poodle!

    Dahlia, they are so cute.

    He doesn't quite look like the pure-bred apricot poodles that a friend of mine had. From what I can tell his head, muzzle, and legs are bit stockier.

    It is doubtful someone would dump a purebred poodle (worth too much money) but you never know...
    If you saw my boy in the flesh you would not think he was a poodle, he's built like a tank, it's only the typical poodle clip that distinguishes him from a mutt.
    (speaking of which he is going into a Swedish T trim in a few weeks, should be interesting!)

    All odds are that he is a mix, but you could certainly get away with telling people he was just a poodle.

    It's past Monday! Is he yours yet?:)

    Well, his adoption day is actually Wednesday NOT Monday... but, I found someone to foster him for me for a few months! Sooo assuming he is good with their cats, he will be mine in a few months!

    Are you picking out names yet?
  • Sep 22, 2009, 01:49 PM

    Trying to think of one. :P I'm open to suggestions.

    And to the previous comments, he is quite stocky compared to the poodles I've seen.

    Looking at that face, I would suggest Didn't, as in I didn't do it.

    What is his personality like?

    It would be too easy to suggest a name like Mopsy just from looking at the one picture. :)
  • Sep 22, 2009, 02:03 PM

    He's very timid, but extreeeemely affectionate once he gets to know. He's content to follow you around and sleep at your feet, or nap in your lap.

    Shadow.

    Barkley.

    Ruff.

    Poohead (that Chewy's nickname)

    Fluff.

    Fuzz.

    Benji.

    Bingo.

    I'm out. :(
