22 unique dog cross breeds you’ve never heard of before

by pawbuzz on in Dogs, Popular 753

Dogs come in a variety of shapes and sizes, arguably more than any other species in the world! For the last thousands of years, we’ve bred dogs to create breeds with different colors, coats, shapes, and sizes.

For the greater part of history, purebreds were the ideal canine type. But lately, mixed-breed dogs are rising and taking over. As you’re about to see, these dogs are just as awesome if not better than their purebred counterparts!

Take a look at these 22 adorable dog cross-breeds below.

1. This is a Pitsky (Pit Bull & Husky). Look at those mesmerizing eyes!

2. Golden Husky – Golden Retriever Husky

3. A Corgipoo! (Toy Poodle & Corgi)

4. Meet the Basset Pei (Basset Hound & Shar Pei)

5. Isn’t the Schörgi adorable? (Corgi & Sheltie)

    That they charge tons of money for! Plus litters are starting to throw “aberrations” undesirable for a profitable sake and dogs/puppies are actually being destroyed by greedy, disreputable breeders!

    Douglas N Paula well first of all how do you know what you are getting from many breeders, if that was true then puppy mills wouldn’t exist. Secondly many of these ‘adorable’ mixes are bred without a regard for health etc. There are many shelter dogs that are aggressive but there are purebreds that are too. There are also many shelter pets that are simply there because people suck and don’t care if they toss them aside. I have owned both purebreds and shelter pets. My Abbey was badly abused but she is the most loving amazing dog I have ever had. My comment is not referring to responsible breeding, I understand that. My comment is referring to puppy mills and backyard breeders who care only about getting one of these cute little dogs and charging thousands while the parents of that puppy spend their life on the end of a chain or worse in a cage. I am glad you are a responsible breeder and dog owner but we both know that is often not the case.

    Dysplasia, do you at least know what it means ? Do you just have the slightest knowledge about DNA to go saying that ?
    Coz CLEARLY mixing small and big dogs is just THE WORSE. Go see how as turned out pug, then look at its origins. Then realize that ALL the mixes in this ‘top’ have waaaaaay more chance to be ill than (for exemple) a line of pure-breed Samoyed.
    (Knowing yes, some ‘pures breeds’ are ill because, and only because of that, humans were dumb enough to destroy their body just for their own benefit- just as it happened for German Sheperd for exemple (but some breeders have kept the real breed alive) just as people are doing here, except it’s not for work but ‘awwh it’s toooo cute !’)

    Teresa Parsons, I’m not moaning. You don’t like my comment, scroll by. As someone who has worked with a dog rescue for 15+ years and have seen countless dogs in shelters who will never find homes, I have every right to be appalled about this practice.

    REALLY?!?!? Why, why, why, does this “Siberian Husky Lovers” page insist on promoting mutts, mixed breed dogs, designer dogs whatever you want to call them. They are mixed breeds, not Siberian Huskies. There are enough dogs in need of homes out there, let’s not encourage irresponsible breeding. How about we stick with SIBERIAN HUSKIES?

    They really guessed on some of them since two are most likely purebred. One that they have as a Golden Husky is a Aussie or Mini Aussie and the Dachshund Dalmatian is a dappled Dachshund. Several breeds had a variety of colors and patterns but were not allowed by AKC since it did fit their standard. Now the old colors are coming back in Great Danes, Dachshunds, Schnauzers, etc…

    They are mutts…..stop encouraging designer mutts by spending big bucks for mixed breeds. Mutts are great dogs, but encouraging mixed combinations and selling them is encouraging overpopulation of dogs.

    This is not “horrendous” or “disgusting.” This page isn’t promoting these so called “designer” breeds, either; they are simply sharing cute photos of other (mixed breed) dogs. You all act like one dog breed can’t impregnate a dog from a different breed. For one, mixed breeds are often healthier than purebreds. For another, how do you think we got the breeds we have now? Breeds with short, curved legs were originally from mixing breeds around the time dogs were domesticated causing a genetic mutation. The short, curved legs found in bassets is due to a genetic mutation that causes them to have an extra copy of a specific gene. That gene produces a growth protein (FGF4) and the extra copy causes an overproduction of FGF4 resulting in short legs.

    Typically it is the opposite. A specific trait is picked in the purebred dogs. Only certain dogs in that breed hold tbe trait. Those dogs are then continuously bred to one another. They don’t get enough genetic diversity throughout their lines and in turn pass those flaws to their children. You can see this in the hip dysplasia in german shepherds or the flat faces of pugs (ultimately pugs can barely even breath out of those noses).

    Mixed breeds/designer dogs have huge possibilities for genetic diversity meaning they are less likely to have those flaws and get sick.

    I agree with you both Jane and Lisa. More and more this is happening. I had a Small 11″ Jack Russell that was a stud. We bred him with only other Jacks and in other states. We took him to have him neutered at 8 years old and the vet told us that it wasn’t a good idea because he was a stud. A year later we had new people with 2 female mini Dachshunds move in across the street and one of them was in heat. My Jack impregnated her and because she was so small could not have the puppies and we had to take her to the vet for delivery. Only one out of 5 survived. It was so so very sad. Maybe if the female would have been a Jack but none the less, People need to have all their pets spayed and neutered. Breed only with the same breed. I have 2 rescues and one has so many breeds in her that I couldn’t even tell you all the breeds. She is the sweetest and I love her so much but this is just not right.

    Half were photoshopped so bad.
    All giggles aside, I have a serious question everyone gets so broke down over breeding dogs. Why?
    If someone didn’t breed two different or more breeds, we wouldn’t have the dogs we have today. With that being said can anyone please post a dog in existence today that isn’t a mix breed?
    How did the term full blooded come about when it took different breeds mating to make example: Boston, French bulldog, boxer, beagle, shepherds.
    Last but not least who gives anyone the right to tell others what they should or shouldn’t do with there animals?
    Everyone claims oh we breed for betterment of the breed. That includes people who inbreed and line breed. But I guess the ones claiming this can back up just what they did to better the breed. Please enlighten those of us who call bullshi?.
