Soo cute

^^ Thankies

OH MY GOD SQUEEEEE! My wife jsut got a jack russel terrier puppy that's like.. 6 weeks old now.. the lil' thing is ADORABLE.

awwww I want a Jack russel :( But my BF would kill me xD he doesnt like them lol I bet its adorable ^^

OH, it's amazingly adorable and just LOADED with about 47 dogs worth of personality. :)

OMG she is so cute! i thought border collie puppy from her markings ^^

She's border collie mixed. Yeah crazy I know, but my sister doesn't watch her dog so this is what we get.

maybe she should get her fixed then?

Tell that to HER. :] She doesn't listen. And I wish she would, I work at an animal shelter for crying out loud. Like the world NEEDS more unwanted litters? Please.

so take the dog one day and get it i fixed. problum solved?

It's not my dog to do so as I please. If she doesn't want it fixed I can get in trouble. Not just getting yelled at she can press charges.

that sucks and i feel sorry for the dog and the puppies because as you said there are already so many un wanted pups in the world all we need is more added to it x.x

Thankies ^^ Yeah Im hoping she looks like a border just miniture haha xD

with the two breeds being so different in size and the border collies being famous for bad hip problems i would think this poor pup is going to have a painful life :( its bad news to mix big and little :( good luck and hope you have a good savings put away, i have a feeling this little guy is going to need a lot of vet care.

They're all perfectly healthy and have had vet checks that say they're in no pain and have no health problems. People mix little dogs and big dogs all the time on PURPOSE and plenty of them are perfectly fine. Don't curse the dog with bad health. :/ Jeez.

im not curseing the dog geeze im just speaking from PERSONAL experence from working at the Pound and later at a vet office, More often then not when the dog gets OLDER it has Serious health issues.

not to sound mean in anyway but a proven fact, pure breed dogs have MORE health issues than ANY mutt this world has, you have a pure AKC German Shepherd they have hip issue's ALL the time and if you get a Shep mix MOSTLIKELLY those hip issues wont be there, mutts are ALWAYS more healthy than any PURE dog I've met. Im not saying pures arnt healthy couse they are im just saying you will spend MORE money on vet bills on a pure rather than a mix.

i wish this was true in my case XD my Newfoundland border collie mix i added up the bills not to long ago hes 5 and i have already spent 6000 on him @.@ yey IBS and slight hip issue! but the hip issue is taken care of but the IBS is a constant issue x.x

oh wow @.@ thats alot haha. Yeah there are some mix's that do cost money but the variety of the dogs are healthier as a mix rather than a pure, I have a pure border and thankfully has no issue's and I have a German Shepherd mix that will never get a hip prob couse her legs dont slouch like a pure one does haha. But im sure Anelle will be a perfect, healthy breed, as long as she is being taken care of right she shouldnt have any problems.

*nods* i have had neo sense he was 6 weeks old and the IBS was a issue from the start x,x the hip thing was from when he sliped on wet tile at 2 years old and landed hard on his hip and dislocated it some how (even the vet was commenting on how talented he was for doing it LOL) which cause slight arthritis but thats been taken care of thankfully so thats no longer a issue. a big chunkc of the money 3000 of it was spent on him in the first 2 years of his life saving his butt, when i first adopted him i didnt know he had worms three days later i did and took him to the vet the xray showed worms in his tummy and intestines and they were so bad he litterly lost 15 pounds of waight that was all worm mass in his innerds x.x which is why he now has serious IBS and i have to be super careful on what he eats x.x people ask me why did i do it, i just tell them why not? and then walk away quickly before i get a dumb redneck answer about how depsoable dogs are x.x

oh wow, but see the money you spent wasnt on jeens it was just accadents and normal things any breed this world has can do or get. And yeah I know what you mean by those dumb answers >.< haha.

even more so the issues occure when its not a planed breeding and you cant trace the leniage back at least 30 years to make sure theres no health issues and in this case Im pretty sure no one knows 30 years back on the two dogs. amiright?

I've worked at two vets offices, grooming salons and currently work at my local humane society as co-captain of the dog barn. I've seen a lab chihuahua mix, that was perfectly healthy at the age of ten and a beagle lab mix that was eight and still acted like a pup. We can't trace back 30 years and there is no need to go that far back, but we can go back too the parents of the puppies and their grandparents because we know both parents and who those dogs came from. The pups had a healthy normal beginning with no complications for the first six weeks and they have been given great care and great people have each one of the pups in which we can still see the puppies as they grow. They'll grow up healthy and stay healthy. The more you think it'll end bad, the more chance there is that it will end bad. I'm very superstitious and I think that thinking about bad luck brings it. So don't think so badly about these puppies future because I believe their future will be bright and they will be spoiled and well cared for.
