Have you ever looked at your pup and wondered what breeds all mixed together to create that furry face? I know I have… I’d imagine it’s a question many ponder, especially with regard to rescue pups.
Last week, Edie (from Will My Dog Hate Me?) invited her readers to engage in a game of Name That Breed and guess the genetic makeup of the adorable Wilson. Peggy Frezon (of Peggy’s Pet Place) thought it would be fun to invite reader guesses about the breed of her pup, Kelly. I loved the idea and thought I’d do the same for Bella. Then Edie had a brilliant plan – why not make it a blog hop?
Without further ado, it’s my pleasure to announce the Magical Mystery Mutt Tour! Join Edie, Peggy and me for a blog hop on Friday, February 4 – it’ll be a name-that-breed-a-thon!
Want to play? It’s simple: write a post about your pup. Include at least two pictures, provide the pup’s height/weight, and describe any personality characteristics you think might be relevant. Post it on Friday, February 4, and wait for the guesses to roll in. (While you’re waiting, you can join the hop and offer your best guess as to the breeds of the other pooches participating!)
There will be a Linky tool available at Will My Dog Hate Me? and Peggy’s Pet Place beginning at 12:01am EST on February 4. I can’t promise I’ll have the link in my post that early, but I’ll add it once I’m able.
Today’s regularly scheduled No Frown Friday has been canceled due to the fact that I was without power for over 24 hours beginning on Wednesday night. I’ll make it up to you with some extra posts next week… promise. Until then, here’s a M*A*S*H-inspired punny pet name to tide you over: B. J. Hunnimutt.
Sounds like great fun… Coop and Lola are pretty easy to figure out though. I'm excited to guess the breeds though.
Definitely… guessing is fun for everyone! 🙂
Sounds like fun. I have a mutt Shiloh that I just may showcase.
Wow! Sounds fun! I might have to do that!
Great idea, we will join!
Yay, what a great idea! I would love to participate — hopefully no one cheats and reads the blog post I wrote about doing a DNA test on Ellie 😉
That sounds like fun! I have wondered so much what Holly's breeds are since I got her four years ago. I know her father is a Cocker Spaniel but the mother is a big mix of breeds! Lots of love, Debbie and Holly
Can't wait to give it a try!
Sounds fun! It'll be fun guessing.
Elyse and Riley
Looking forward to the hop – and love that name! lol
Stacy and Ellie – we'll have to hope everyone stays on the honor system! 🙂
CindyLu's Muse – All credit goes to Edie for the cool name!
Lori – Yeah, the power outage was no fun. 🙁 Cold is bad. But we're warm and toasty now!
Ooo! What fun!
Love the idea. Love the badge. Love the name. This is going to be FUN! Thanks puppy 🙂
This contest sounds like a lot of fun and I will be pawticipating….going to mark my calendar now! Thanks for the info!
That sounds like fun, I will pop in and take a look on the day.
