What Breed am I??

[Antonelos]

Hello,

I am thinking about adopting this dog.

I have two questions. 1) Does anyone know what type of mixed breed this is? 2) Is $450 a high price when adopting? (We are on a tight budget so I want to gauge what people think )

Adopting a dog shouldn't be more than $100 or so, sounds like you're purchasing a dog!

Agree, $100 for adopting a dog
he sure is a cutie; not sure of the breed / mix

[Antonelos]

Thanks Lisa.

I thought it was very high. I guess they want you to pay for it's shots/neutering.

Maybe there is some freight costs involved as well. He is in TX and I am in CT.

I think he definitely has shepard in him. If he does, I imagine he is a very smart and social dog. Good luck!

Looks like a mix between a spaniel and a retriever?

He looks definitely like some kind of retriever and maybe a border collie? He's kewte $450 is WAYYYY to much if you are adopting him though... may want to ask why such the high cost...

Some of the Atlanta rescues that pull from our shelter have adoption fees upwards of $300.00. I think it has a lot to do with the cost of veterinary services (and shelter pull fees) in an area, and also they want the adopter to have a good solid investment in the animal. Unfortunately, many people only value what has a monetary value, and free or cheap pets are considered to be of less worth to them.
