sailordragon87 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 i have a puppie t is a shih tzu mix. when i first came here in feb. i was thinking jr terrier shih tzu mix but hard to tell at young age. well not she is 5 months old and well she a 15 lb. something or other. someone just recently told me she look like a border collie!? she is a humane society dog and they said the mom is deffinatly shih tzu (two of her sisters turned out shih tzu) well anyway just want to know what you guys think. she is 15 lbs. and i have a dog encyclopedia (royal canine) that says the biggest a jr terrier can get is 15.5 lbs. so idk.... she digs like no other, the smartest dog i've ever met, she does hurd the ducks and guinea pigs, and she thinks shes the 'big dog' on campus (her best friend who she can tackle is a aussie that is deaf and partially blind) oh and her name is roxy, thanks, cassie this is her at 7 weeks old [img]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a365/sailordragon87/booger3.jpg[/img] this is her at 5 months old [img]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a365/sailordragon87/roxy323.jpg[/img] [img]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a365/sailordragon87/roxy32.jpg[/img] sorry the pictures are so big (dont know how to make 'em smaller at the moment) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devious tricks Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 She looks like she might be a terrier mixed with some sort of collie breed. Maybe even Sheltie? Whatever she is, she sure is adorable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leahluvsherpups Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 Knowing a little about Border Collies, I would say that there is definately BC in her. She is a very cute dog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sailordragon87 Posted July 8, 2005 Author Share Posted July 8, 2005 wouldn't a border collie be to big for a female shih tzu......? [quote name='leahluvsherpups']Knowing a little about Border Collies, I would say that there is definately BC in her. She is a very cute dog.[/quote] shes already 5 months old wouldn't you think if she was part bc she would be a bit bigger by now? i should go have her weight checked agagin though cause it was a while ago (when she got fixed) that she was weighed. i will find out how much she weighs soon and get back to you an updated weight. thanks you guys for helping me out (she did hace big paws for a puppie....) sailordragon87 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailordragon87 Posted July 12, 2005 Author Share Posted July 12, 2005 okay just got her weighed again and she is 19 lbs. and 4 oz. at about 6 1/2 months old. i think she may be border collie too. because i work at a dog kennel called critter camp, and we get alot of bc's and other dogs but anyway she does remind me of the way they act. sailordragon87 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leahluvsherpups Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Those lucky people are meeting in Iowa. I wish I could go. 19lbs sounds about right for a 6 month old. My BC's are 40 and 50 lbs. Oddly enough, my female is the bigger of the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"i just hope roxy has some of the shih tzu genes and stays less then 30 lbs. *crossing fingers* we wanted a small dog because we had a bichon frise for 16 years before, so we like little dogs. lol" thanks again, cassie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imported_Debbie Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 I have JRT's and I've got to say I see more B.C.......... :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddysMom Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 I see border collie! She is gorgeous. The shelter could have been wrong about the Shi Tzu part, how can they tell how the littermates turned out at that young? Also I believe it is possible for a litter to have more than one dad.

sailordragon87 Posted August 12, 2005 Author Share Posted August 12, 2005 the pups came in the day before and the farmer that brought them in said it was his shih tzu that gave birth to them. we are going to meet her siblings, maybe, we are organizing a meeting for the 4 pups weither they decide to come or not but it'll be fun. *they said roxy was the runt and she was the one pup who crawled up in to the dash board so they almost had to tear apart the guys car, but the got her out alright.* i will say how the reuniting of the pups goes maybe with some pictures???? sailordragon87 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
