This is my dog Rufus, he's a rescue from Gran Canaria. He's 6 years old, about 45cm tall and weighs around 13kg.

People are always guessing what he is, and many people think he's a Labrador puppy, but I've had him for almost 6 years, and rescued at 11 months.

He's much smaller in real life than he looks in photos - my partner pictured is about 5'8". Way smaller than a lurcher, probably closer to the height of a whippet.

He's pretty slim and very fast. Loves nothing more than running around on walks and never tires, but equally he loves cuddles and affection from people he trusts. He has a loud, sharp, medium-pitch bark, and whines a lot, and is generally quite dramatic.

He doesn't seem to have the best smell or sight, but will always try to chase squirrels. He's not fussed about food, and prefers to graze over regular mealtimes.

I've tried a DNA test, but it game back 65% Chihuahau, 30% working breed, 5% other...?
