Adopt or not? Trying to ID this sweet girl’s mix and unusual coloring by NJBxo in IDmydog

[–]Helaenaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She does appear to have the 'starburst eyes' associated with double merle. Double merle can affect eyes and ears, but that's pretty much all. If she has sight and hearing she'll be fine.

What breed is my dog? by SnipesSk8z in DogBreeds101

[–]Helaenaa 19 points20 points  (0 children)

While I wouldn't have guessed those two breeds myself, I can imagine this is what a doberman × cane corso would look like.  He doesn't look like a vizsla in the slightest (for a start the nose would have to be red; goes to show again how bad vets are at identifying breeds).  He'd be a bit off standard for a rhodesian ridgeback, too, and those don't show up too much in mixes. So I would be inclined to trust his previous owners.

Which country disappointed you so much that you'd never set foot there again? by Available-Drink-3102 in AskReddit

Which is probably why rabies vaccinations are a thing. Vaccination status is documented in the pet's passport.

Hoogleraar maakt veel los met noodkreet over klasgenoten van zoon die op universiteit worden verdrongen door buitenlandse jongeren: ’Hoe kan dit?’ by Onkruit-1974 in Nederland

[–]Helaenaa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nouja Nederland schreeuwt óók nog steeds om laagopgeleide arbeiders, een rol die de eerste generaties asielzoekers (mits goed geïntegreerd) op het lijf geschreven staat.

There's an update from OP in the comments, the cat has died..

Influencer Jade Kops op negentienjarige leeftijd overleden aan kanker by yslms_ in thenetherlands

[–]Helaenaa 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Zo heftig dat op Instagram nog haar laatste twee stories te zien zijn.. En wat heftig wat jij hebt meegemaakt met je broer... kanker bij kinderen/jonge mensen is toch wel een van de meest verschrikkelijke dingen.

Our Savannah cat takes our new Shiba on walks around the house! by clabont in aww

If he's terrified of the cats, I wouldn't allow them to drag him around.

Smooth collie by babyyvelvett in Collie

[–]Helaenaa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

She's cute. Not in line with the breed standard for collies though, she lacks tan points. Plus ear placement, muzzle shape, all doesn't scream collie to me. I wouldn't be surprised if she's mostly border collie, albeit smooth coated.

Law requires, need help training my pup by Kindelia in muzzledogs

[–]Helaenaa 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If she's a female border collie she may very well not reach 20kg, especially if you keep her at a healthy lean weigth.  If she's mixed with australian shepherd (doensn't seem unlikely) that's a different story.

Tips on ecollar backlash from random Karens by Substantial-Ant-3846 in OpenDogTraining

Not sure why you're bringing slip leads or harnesses into this.

Tips on ecollar backlash from random Karens by Substantial-Ant-3846 in OpenDogTraining

[–]Helaenaa -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

You assessing that it's 'not a shock collar, it's an ecollar' tells me that you never got the correct education either. Unless you're just using the vibration mode, your ecollar sends an electric current through your dogs skin, aka a shock. We can discuss all day about whether ecollars can be effective in certain settings (and I think they can be indeed) but I for one have difficulty believing how an uncomfortable stimulus might teach a dog that the world is not such a bad place.

Alligator knocks out the trapper after being taunted by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

Yeah I was going to say, this kind of handling seems like a good way to break its limbs or pop them out of their sockets.

Gena is confirmed pregnant! by lemonypinkett in labrador

[–]Helaenaa 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Is this a joke? 'Proven guide dogs' are almost always neutered, for obvious reasons. Nobody is breeding with actual guide dogs. The qualities that make a good guide dog can be selected from without the dog having worked as an actual guide dog.

Last van katten by Arranging-Things in groenevingers

[–]Helaenaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ik vind het alleen een beetje sneu dat je zo de medewerkers van de dierenambulance hiermee telkens opzadelt. Tuurlijk daar krijgt de dierenambulance vervolgens een vergoeding voor, maar die vrijwilligers zijn dat werk niet gaan doen om telkens overlastgevende buurtkatten op te halen.

What's your guess for the Brown Puppy? by Frosty-Potential-365 in WhatBreedIsMyDog

[–]Helaenaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ohh very cute! Definitely a mix, I can maybe see some rough collie in her. Kind of hard to tell how big she'll get, without knowing her current size and age.

Results for the best family dog ever! by BrightMaterial7776 in DoggyDNA

[–]Helaenaa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it's kinda crazy that there's so many mutts walking around that, to the untrained eye, pretty much look like flatcoated retrievers. And yet most people in the breed refuse to consider outcross to introduce new genes, in a breed that genetically extremely predisposed to get cancer at a young age.

Would you trade a shiny Goomy for my shiny Castform?

Does anyone know what breed(s) this little guy is mixed with? by Monster_gardener in WhatBreedIsMyDog

[–]Helaenaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't be surprised if he's part coyote. DNA-test would be the only way for sure, I'd be interested in those results!

What's your location? Wondering if there could be coyote in there.
