My pups were born about this time 2 yrs ago. They were born under a homes deck in Brady, Texas , and the mother abandoned the litter. All were rescued in early Feb 2023. The rescuer claims they were about 6-7 weeks old at that time. All survived and were adopted. We were only going to adopt one of them (the female), but when we saw the male, we decided we had to have him as well. So we suffer through "litter-mate syndrome" as a result. The two of them are voraciously competitive, but also incredibly loving toward each other. They look a bit different, yet details are very similar. 95% of their DNA is identical:
Australian Cattle Dog / Miniature American Shepherd / Siberian Husky / Chihuahua / Australian Shepherd / Chow Chow / Shar Pei / American Pit Bull.
