Pollux's Dog DNA Results | What Breed Is My Dog?

[@WelcomeToMyCurls]

Can you believe it??!! I still don't even have words.....still in shock!

[@RosusaMansuran]

I thought he would have some Jack Russell in him. 😂 He is is a gorgeous wee feller as is Moo. ❤️❤️

[@Guinnivere]

I called Husky. Tail, snout and gutting toys and bedding plus his high energy.

[@maisie9867]

I call our dogs purebred mutts, feel free to tell people that's what Pollux is when they ask

[@maisie9867]

Hi Renee, on your website it's showing that only the charcoal color is available. Are all the other colors sold out already even though you're ordering the shirts after we place our order, or is there a glitch? Edit: I didn't realize there were separate links for each color, no glitch I just didn't look hard enough 😅 Loved the video I've been wondering what his breed make-up was! Maybe I'll do this with my two rescued litter mates to find out their breeds and how they compare to each other since they're siblings. I dig sit for a dog that looks a lot like Pollux, but with shorter hair who has to have some kind of hound in him!

[@susiedavis4560]

I had the same thing happen but kept at it and finally found other colors.

[@mydalles8898]

If you're wondering why Pollux spent over a year in the animal shelter it's because he was always meant to be yours ♥️♥️♥️

[@WelcomeToMyCurls]

awww I think you are right ❤️

[@Mama-Ames]

Awwww... what a sweet thing to say.💕

[@fionanicolson2021]

What an absolutely wonderful family. Dogs are so lucky to have this great loving home

[@xyzsame4081]

Because of his size ??

[@lynncarol2618]

I would have thought he was a basenji, Sheba Inu, pharaoh dog and border collie.

[@Kim-lc3fv]

I'm so happy that Pollux hit the jackpot to end up with such a loving home and family! ❤🐶❤🐶❤

[@everettwilliams956]

We rescued a puppy from a animal shelter very similar to Pollux. He spent his first four months in the shelter. A family turned him back into the shelter six weeks later. He has separation anxiety really bad. He was given the name of Enzo and has turned out to be a great companion.

[@AriesGirlTAROT]

His largest mix percentage is 20? That's a mix mix mix. He's adorable, he is a Heinz57. He is so pretty and has a great personality.

[@sandraoaks7887]

I love how Pollux, who never had the love & warmth of a loving home now has a home w/ caring humans & an awesome brother as well. I love watching them play. I’m happy for both of them. It’s a blessing for me. I always tell ppl who adopt an animal thank you. So thank you. It blesses me.

Doesn’t it bring joy!

And room for safe zoomies:: perfect home a family to provide love and an older canine brother to teach him how to dog 😬

[@ajhpetlover]

My very first dog came hobbled. I thought it had a can over his nose but called “here kitty” couldn’t see it was a dog until he came and then saw it was a dog with a splint and wrap on his foot and leg, he sounded like a pirate when he walked with the “wooden leg” He was a dream my cats softly growled and hissed and we called him Bruno. Looked like a chihuahua mix. After calling every veterinarian and looking if he was lost no one came forward. It made me happy because he immediately fit in with the cats and eventually they were playing together. They didn’t know what the doggy play bows were about but accepted him to the family. I had Bruno checked at the veterinarians, was treated for dental problems and was a dream of a dog. He was an older dog when he came, but his last home was his best! My mom would order steakwhen out for dinner and bring some home for Bruno, cooked special soups and stews for him, he had a bigger wardrobe than most children! Ever since I am now a dog and cat home. Wouldn’t want it any other way. I agree with a previous remark not to trust anyone who doesn’t like animals. Dogs especially are known to be exceptional judges of character. If ever your or afriends dog suddenly acts very strange say with a new date or person coming to your home, we all would do well to listen to the dog and don’t go out with such a person or have them in your home. Your dog may save your life! They just sense so much more than people do and are truthful.

The way Pollux tears around the yard us the most telling trait. I had a Siberian Husky - they are runners - they love to run. They are the dogs on the Ididarod - they pull the sleds. There is a story where they ran medicine to someone hundreds of miles away to save someone's life. They are strong and have perseverance

I'm so glad he has such an amazing family. Adoption is the only way to go. Thanks for doing this.

Yes, that many in the mix I'm just going to say random dog.

[@dorothypezzi2415]

American staffordshire terrier is a Pittbull. Sweetest most loyal and loving dogs around.

[@rumourrosz8914]

Yes they are the best but are big babies. Mine ate the bookcase. She pulls the stuffing out of everything.

[@paulazemeckis7835]

Most people aren't aware that pitties were originally bred to be nannies to children.

[@loulabelleparsnips4127]

Yes they are loving and when we had to put our's (a rescued pittie/mastiff/Boxer mix) to sleep it nearly killed us. But they can be difficult as well...NO neighbor's cat or wildlife was safe if they came into our fenced yard, he killed a huge # of racoons and a beloved cat and it was awful. I'm not sure if fighting breed dogs should be bred at all for that very reason. But he never met a person he didn't love and would haul all 86 pounds of himself up onto my husband's lap and lay his head on his shoulder and lick my hubby's ear until he'd fall asleep. A complete baby, unless and until a strange animal approached. We managed to train him not to hurt our parrot who walked on the floor, and during long walks he knew not to lunge at other dogs. But off-leash he was uncontrollable. He'd fight to the death...I swear he would. Their is a Dr. Jekyll / Mr. Hyde aspect to these dogs that is a bit terrifying. There are so many of these guys clogging up the shelters b/c folks can't handle their aggressive side. Stop breeding them just b/c they are cool dogs...being 'cool' does not stop them from damaging / killing other animals, nor does it bring peace of mind to yr neighbors if u have one as a pet. They were bred to fight bulls/ dogs etc. We don't want that anymore.

[@dorothypezzi2415]

@@loulabelleparsnips4127 We had a rescued greyhound. He would kill any small animal that can into our yard. He had to be kept on a leash for the same reason. By your standards, all bully breeds and terriers should be eliminated, since they were bred to kill other animals. Russian & Irish wolfhounds were bred to kill wolves. Most sight hounds were bred to hunt and kill their prey. People need to be knowledgeable about the breeds before they adopt or buy any dog and be prepared to train it properly. But you shouldn't condemn an entire breed. Our pitty has never attacked or shown any animal aggression.

[@lea801]

I lost mine in April of this year.. He was everything you said plus more. I miss him so much. So glad we rescued him when we did

[@taratova]

Mixed breeds are healthier and smarter too. Congratulations Pollux . You are a wonderfully made dog.

[@EddyBunter]

No mix is as smart as a Border Collie, not even close.

[@josienic361]

he probably sheds a lot because he's part husky, noticed he's a runner too. Thats also a husky trait

[@blondeexplorer8276]

I agree. I brush my Siberian Husky EVERY day. (A rescue) That tail looks like Huskie too. I also thought some Beagle was in the mix.

American Staffordshire Terrier's, Staffy for short, are awesome! I may be prejudiced since I have one! They are lumped into the group with Pitbulls, a very misunderstood breed. My Max, is the sweetest most loving dog I've ever had. Having said all that, he looks nothing like Pollux! Neither did my Husky Blizzard.

Love the story of Pollux and how you rescued him from his months at the shelter. When it comes to his breed, I thought for certain he would have Beagle because of his coloring. I think your husband thought the same. Also because of his long snout, I thought he would have some Greyhound. He may, since I think you said he had some Hound mix. Anyway, I am, (like everyone who watches your videos) so glad Pollux found your family who has given him a wonderful and loving home.

His is the American Mutt. A very healthy, active, Highly Intelligent, Good Natured, critter. His is just a Good dog. A automatic door bell, he just has 4 feet and a tail. Learning to be a dog was just the thing to actively show just how smart he really is. A great addition to your family.

[@hfortenberry]

How exciting!!!! Two things. The Daschound is pronounced like "Doxun" so y'all were both right on that. And the American Staffordshire (pronounced like "staffordsher") Terrier is what we commonly call a pit bull. There are 2 breeds of pit bull, the American version and the English version. The American version is larger. Both are absolutely wonderful breeds. I had an Am Staff mix and she was the sweetest girl. She passed away at age 12 and I miss my Jenny. And it's so good for Pollux that he has another dog in the house. So good for his doggy psychology mental health. Also, please check out Cesar Millan for learning how to understand dog psychology . And last thing, I have done a lot of dog training and read many books on dog psychology and training and my most favorite of all is "Beyond Obedience" by April Frost. I highly recommend that book to all dog lovers. Much love and fun to your family and to Pollux!

[@Dwightinho56]

No, the Dachshund is a German name and is pronounced as such: Dachs Hund. Dachs is the breed, Hund means hound or actually dog if you will.

[@darlenelabelle7212]

Pollux is a beautiful dog inside and out. What a testament to the resilience and forgiveness a dog can have. As for his genes, Pollux is an amazing pack of breeds wrapped up in one amazing dog. On a side note please don't be concerned about the stigma some people give "pit bulls". I own an American Pitbull Terrier and an American Staffordshire Terrier. They are wonderful loving family dogs. These two breeds are descended from one breed and different in name due to country of registration. Several other breeds are also considered "pit bulls" due to there use/history of pit fighting, ie. Bulldogs, Bull Terriers, American Bulldogs, and sometimes Boxers etc... I would hate for anyone to stigmatize Pollux or try to cause negative feelings about your love and praise of him. Enough hate in this world. Keep those sweet innocent boys happy and healthy! 🐶❣ My youngest Pittie and I love to watch videos of Pollux and Maxxie playing. Thanks, Darlene

You are so kind

[@galescott8433]

shame people put 201 thumbs down for a lovely show. and precious doggies!! and the nicest family. it is great show!

[@cocod594]

It's wonderful that you adopted a rescue dog who'd been there in the shelter for 400+ days with little background. I'm so happy for Pollux! You're so lucky that you got a star!!! (I've done the same thing twice and was so lucky too.) I hope everyone seeing your videos goes to their shelters if they're looking for a dog or cat; they've got some wonderful animals who just need a home!!! They couldn't better than to adopt a pet who.will be so greatful!

[@annielauron0930]

I’d been waiting for this. Thank you

[@paulaanderson9770]

Happy belated birthday!

[@WelcomeToMyCurls]

Thank you so much 😀

[@julieschubert6341]

I love your enthusiasm and positivity, which shows in the joy Pollux now exudes....so sweet!

[@johntatum8088]

I think Pollux is a real nice mix of some great breeds...especially boxer, labrador, and beagle...all very friendly,yet independent dogs.

[@snooker48]

What an adorable family! Can't wait to see the new grill! Love the DNA results..a mix of great breeds! Love the Tee's, too!

[@WelcomeToMyCurls]

LOL....not gonna happen 🤣

[@kefirheals7383]

That DNA result was insance - did they just do a CYA and include all them breeds - I mean, really? HA HA - that was too funny. At least tht way, no-one was right or wrong. Hee-larious! I felt vindicated cuz my guess ended up with 27% being Terrier. I knew it, I knew it. My Jack Russell Terriers were not pure bred, and they each had other Terrier mixed in - I could see it in Pollux. But what cracked me up was 1% Mexican Street Dog - prrrrrrrrheeeeehaaa - aye chihuahua! Well, that pretty boy is so adorable - him can be whatever him wants to be. And Maxxie could give a care. Well, y'all had us on the edge of our seat. Loved the part that coded him as healthy as a horse, with no crazy dispositions. Lucky on that part, for sure!!! Well Renee - whew, the wait is OVER. LOL.

[@WelcomeToMyCurls]

LOL thanks for watching!!!! We had a ball doing this! I laughed at the Street Dog myself. Can't wait to take him with us in January. And yes....I loved the fact that the heath tests were done. It's very comforting to know that everything is ok medically. GREAT NEWS!!

[@cameronheinz3659]

Yeah, I also have a Jack Russell; I could see that character in Pollux. The snout is terrier. Labs and Boxers are such great loyal dogs. Pollux is a great mix.

[@charissesantiago4930]

My rescue puppy is part American Staffordshire Terrier (a pitbull). She has very similar color pattern to Pollux. She is playful, loyal, and super-loving to everyone, especially my kiddos. We love your shelter puppy!

[@maureengunn7952]

He’s such a cute pooch! Love him and love your videos and family! You have a great personality, like a breath of fresh air. I’m definitely joining the Pollux and Max fam club! Your videos make me smile. All the best🤗

[@susanmercurio1060]

Even Pollux is excited!

[@WelcomeToMyCurls]

Yes he is!!! He’s here with me now watching ❤️

[@MUSTANG96CSR]

I wouldn't have guessed Beagle but when your husband said it I thought that was a such a smart guess. I had a friend when I was a kid that had a Beagle with the exact same coloring as Pollux. Wow..Husky? I would have never guessed that either, or boxer. I have 3 Doxies (Dachshunds) and they are all headstrong. "Daddy get a new grill!" LOL! Very surprising results! He is a hodge-podge of many great dogs! So you should research each breed's personalities! LOVE Pollux and Maxxie!

[@Kindness.20247]

Nice Family & great Pollux dna results and will have to place an order soon. Love both the dogs nice they get along! thought he was part Terrier, German Shorthaired Pointer and Golden Retriever mix.

[@laurafedora5385]

He reminds me so much of my Indy, he’s so crazy and playful His face and ears look like a smooth coated collie mix to me

[@MarkUsTheThird1]

I enjoyed this video immensely! Thank you!! 🐶🥰🤦‍♀️

[@WelcomeToMyCurls]

Thank you for watching!!!

[@christinekelecius1595]

I want you all to know I'm going to be late for work because of my excitement in finding out Pollux' breeds. He has a wonderful pedigree. Thx for sharing your fun family.

[@WelcomeToMyCurls]

You are so funny!!!!! Thank you for watching and spending your morning us❤️

[@suzannemoore6041]

My wish for every dog that is in a shelter is that they find a home as wonderful as yours!

[@infjfemale200]

You have such a beautiful dog! Pollock is so blessed to be part of your family!

[@arantxavega7616]

The 20% Siberian Husky explains why he doesn't want to get in the pool!!!! 😂😂😘

[@WelcomeToMyCurls]

Yep....but how about that 14% Lab.....I guess they cancel each other out 😂

[@FalconryMagic]

Wow he's a mut!! A Heinz 57 & I love him :) from West Wales, UK xx

[@joygernautm6641]

That’s probably why he’s so healthy!! Genetic diversity actually produces much healthier dogs!

[@jwilde4957]

I see the beagle markings . ! Thank you tor for sharing . My Golden died at 7 yrs old 3 yrs ago. He became my Service dog. I am empty without him. I have thanked you in my heart for sharing especially Pollux and his new life ! Sincerely , Joy

[@briartwined]

I personally would take these results with a pinch of salt - it's been demonstrated on various TV news segments that different dog DNA companies produce wildly different results. I think it may be something we can never really know, unless technology advances accuracy levels, unfortunately. I wonder how similar Pollux's siblings look to him! Such a treasure of a dog
