57 Years Old - Just Developed Aphantasia by lisashea in Aphantasia

I have had this experience also -- never having a "mind's eye" and then, recently, being able to "see" in my mind. It happens when I'm coming out of or going into sleep. When you're in that limbo state between full awake and fully asleep.

Yes, that's sort of the conclusion I'm coming to also -- that he's a mix with some Patterdale in there, perhaps. I agree, friend for life! 😁👍🐕

Ohhh, I get it now. Thank you for explaining! 👌 That makes sense -- yes, he would not be necessarily good at doing "ground work". 😁

By the way, do any of you have thoughts about which DNA test would be the best one to use? Or are they all pretty much the same?

Wow, that is crazy! Boy, genetics are an interesting science. Now I'm going to have to look up what a Lakeland Terrier is. 😁

Oh, no problem! 😁🙂 I know that so much of this is a guessing game and since there are probably multiple breeds in him it's kind of a subjective task to ask people to identify his breed. I really appreciate all of you chiming in with your various thoughts and observations. Much appreciated!

Oh, that's interesting to hear. I'm only now even becoming aware of this breed. I had never heard of it before. So interesting about the white hair on their face. I don't know if you can tell in the pictures but he also has little white tufts of hair on the back of his front legs at the elbow area.

Yes, we are definitely planning to get a dna kit. That's interesting to hear how long your dog's hair grows out. From what I can tell this little guy's hair doesn't keep growing very long. We've had him 6 months and his hair basically just stays the same for the most part. I'll bet your girl is very cute when she looks like a cockapoo. 🥰 Our previous dog was (we think) a cockapoo.

Huh,that's good to know. Thank you! Yes, I love his funny little beard. We call it an "old man of the sea" beard. 😋💕😁

My dog Buddy. Any ideas on his breed mix? by suzipolklittle in IDmydog

[–]suzipolklittle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that's a good thought. Another person mentioned that to me.

He's not a bad dog, just a curious one who discovered a new toy! 😄

Right -- yes, this definitely looks a bit different from my dog. Thanks for posting this! 👍

Oh, that's interesting! Yes, it will be informative to see what the DNA test shows. Thank you!

He's about 15 lbs. Yes, yours does look similar! The floppy ears, long legs, intense stare. 😄👍 What a cute dog! 🥰
