WHICH ONE OF THESE DOGS IS NOT MY DOG, ROWDY?*
Is this Rowdy?
Or is this Rowdy?
Maybe this is Rowdy…
When we first got Rowdy, we were told that he was an Australian Shepherd and Chow mix. I could see the Aussie part, but I could not see the Chow part. Besides, Rowdimus Megatron didn’t have the black tongue that is almost a staple of Chows. I used to have two Rottweilers, and the way Rowdy sits is very much like Rottweilers — clumsily balanced on one side, legs both pointing out in the opposite direction. He also has the markings of a Rottweiler on his face. However, he still has that shaggy, “hair metal” fur common in Australian Shepherds. I kept insisting that Rowdy is half Rottie, half Aussie, all awesome, and now I am sure he is.
Today, my pal Ryan did a Google search for “Rottweiler Australian Shepherd mix,” and this is what we were led to :
Eli is 16 months to 2 years old, a male Australian shepherd/Rottweiler mix; he weighs 45 pounds and is neutered. He has no health issues and is absolutely adorable. All he wants is attention. He had the choice of attention or food…he chose attention. WILL YOU HELP ELI??? Eli needs a forever home; please help him.**

That’s Rowdy’s doppelganger, goddammit! I knew it. With the exception of Eli’s cropped tail, it’s almost a perfect match. Eli even has the same GIANT tree trunk front legs and *teeny* back legs that Rowdy has.
Rowdy is an AUSWIELLER!

*Yes, I am posting something about my dog. No David follies or retard jokes (i.e. David follies) in this post. Sheesh.
**By the way, I omitted some of the adoption contact info from this, mainly because I don’t feel right publishing other people’s numbers and e-mail addresses (business or personal) on my site. You’re a smart person. If you really want to, YOU can find this info.
