Your mixed breed dog of the day

She is 4 months old and about 15 lbs in this photo. I think she looks like a JRT mix of some kind, and probably that's what she'd be called if her parents were unknown. However, we know that her sire is a bassett hound/beagle cross and mother a chihuahua. (The same parents from this litter, but that's a long story that I'm angry about so let's not go there...)


And here is one of her brothers (same litter), who looks very much chihuahua:

Dog phenotypes. Gotta love 'em.

I've got nothin'

For no real reason at all, here is a compilation of YouTube videos of dogs rolling in their owners' perfume/cologne/body spray. (The first video is of my dog Sammy who loves Dove brand citrus body mist).

Sammy shows equal enthusiasm for rolling in cat poop and rotting fish, which either says something about dogs' odor preferences, or ours.
