It's in the Tradin' Post, which I think is just here in Central Illinois,
one of those classified ads publications. It gave an 877 area code - is
that a toll free prefix or an actual prefix, I wonder?

What's a Teddy Bear?

I've no idea, some kind of cute little fuzzy doggie. They're registered
with the ATBA, which I'm assuming is the American Teddy Bear Association.
So they must be a real breed, right? WRONG!

I just realized I forgot to put that ad in my message, here's the website --

http://www.carolscanines.com -- if you look at their puppies page, there's
the Teddybears.

Heh. Well, MiKis aren't, so why should Teddy Bears be? I wonder what
breeds were mixed to create the Teddy Bear.

Oh, my God. What is a Moppet, I wonder? Well, she says she's a
responsible breeder, so it must be true! After all, she provides
detailed housebreaking instructions! She is selling Boxer mixes for
$249???? And take a look at the pictures of the Husky - - the "husky
boy" and "husky girl" sure look like the same pup to me. Scary, scary
website.

I'm really kind of speechless. She is charging how much for those pups?
Plus, I didn't like the look in the Huskies' eyes. I think they should have
gone to a really home a long time ago.

And from the description of where you can view the puppies on weekends, it
sounds like a flea market. Typical. Neuter requirement on the shih-tzu's
but not the others? Interesting.
Funny, the only thing I could find on a "Teddy Bear Dog" is this:
http://dogswithjobs.com/about_dogs/meet_the_breeds/cauc_ovt.html
And this came up in my search, which I thought was well written.

Looking at the pictures, I would have to say they are a shih-tzu/mini-

can see a lot of similarities.

Did anyone else notice that the terri-poo girls are the same as the
teddy bear girls?? They are just in a different position.

They do look similar. Any idea what a Moppet is?

I didn't notice that, but I did see that the "husky boy blue eyes" is
the same pup as the "husky girl blue eyes". Dumb BYB for not knowing
that the odds of two Sibes with absolutely identical markings are
astronomical.

As do most dogs. Generally speaking (some allowances made for people
with severe allergies), people looking for a dog that doesn't shed at
all should be steered to a Gund.
