My dogs are not pure breds. Both rescues and I wouldnt trade them for the world. Sophie (not shown) is a Rottie/Shep mix and is most certainly Princess of the house. Then there is our Simon..he is beautiful, full of energy and very smart and obeidient. He is border collie/lab mix. They are the greatest. They truly are little people with four legs and fur! (Simon is my avatar pic). We LOVE dogs.
