Most of our dogs have been rescues, including two ‘pure’ (a GSD and cavalier King Charles spaniel), a lurcher, trail hound (bred from fox hounds in Cumbria, England, to race over courses that can include barbed wire and other obstacles... the farmers up there apparently plead poverty but can bet a lot of money on these dog races. Our dog didn’t make the cut - she kept turning round and going back home!) Currently we have a Toy poodle mix, rescued from a puppy farm (but we didn’t know at first). I never liked poodles until we got her.
