Hybrid dogs are all the rage. Plus, hybrids save on gas, right? (Some dogs I’ve met run on pure methane). Here are some of my favorite combinations–and, yes, these are actual dog breed names:
- Bossi-poo – Boston terrier + poodle (bossy pants + ?)
- Brat – Boston Terrier + Rat terrier (better behaved than it sounds)
- Hug – Husky + Pug (Aww, just aww!)
- Bullmation – Bull terrior + Dalmation (“What in bullmation is that critter?”)
- Skypoo – Sky terrier + Poodle (“Heads-up, watch out for the–too late”)
- Bagle – Beagle + Basset Hound (great with cream cheese)
- Bowzer – Basset hound + Schnauzer (no Nintendo game controller required)
- Schnoodle – Schnauzer + Poodle (great with a Brat and a beer)
- Schweenie – Dachshund + Shih Tsu (little guy with a big heart in those 80s movies)
So, there you have it. I dare you to say, “Bagle, Bowzer, Schnoodle, and Schweenie” without laughing out loud. It would also make a great name for a law firm: “Thank you for calling Bagle, Bowzer, Schnoodle, and Schweenie. How may I help you hoo-hoo-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha…” They would go through a lot of receptionists.
Cockapoos (Cocker Spaniel + Poodle) are misnamed, by the way. They should really be called Cockerdoodles. That way people could shout, “Careful, don’t step in the Cockerdoodle doo!” But chances are, just as you were about to say it,
You’d get hit by a Skypoo.
You forgot my favorite, Chiweenie!! How could you?! We had such a sweetheart named Greta Ott! Have a good day, Mitch!
I thought about including that, Maria, but it was a little too close to Schweenie.
🤣🤣🤣
🙂
Maltese and shih Tzu are common in my country. And are hilariously referred to as Lhasa hapso here…lol
Hilarious 😂 cockerSpoodle-doo to you too 🤣
Thanks, Dawn. ;>)
Only a pleasure!!
I had no idea there were so many
My brother and his wife own a cockapoo–CUTEST dog on the planet!! It does seem a shame, however, that some of these hybrid-names end in poo. Then again, spanoodle doesn’t convey dignity either.
We call our dog a Brat. Not because of his breed, just his behavior. 😃
;>)
This blog has really gone to the dogs…
I definitely agree, it has gone to the dogs!
;>)
Java Bean: “Ayyy, did I hear we’re having bagels?”
;>)
You’re right about the potential law firm name!
;>)
Love it!
Mal Shi is pretty awesome.
Thanks for the laughs, Mitch! 🤣
My pleasure, Peggy!
hybrid breeds are good because it avoids the genetic health problems of pure breed dogs :0
I’ve heard that. Win-win!
My nephew has a Pyredoodle. Dog has springs for legs. If we’re laying down on the couch, look out.
;>)
I liked that doodle on here
Haha!!😆
The Schnoodle and the Schweenie are hilarious combo names. A radio talk show host I listen has a hybrid “Chipit.” It’s a Pitbull Chihuahua mix! 🙂
;>)
Hilarious post, Mitch! Our daughter has a Pyredane (Great Pyrenees/Great Dane cross). He’s a gentle giant.
Sounds like a prescription drug. ;>) But then, your gentle probably is a very effective mood stabilizer.
Made me smile 🙂
Nice 💜
Thanks, PK (or is it Rita?).
😅💐
🤣🤣🤣
My daughter used to have a chihuahua/ daschund mix. It was called a “Chaweenie!”
;>) The possibilities are endless!
Cockledoodle doos! You were right, I found myself laughing aloud just reading, not even saying them. Ah here it wasn’t only letters,,,,,,, LOL……. I mean it was a real automatic can’t h3lp it laugh,,,,, that doesn’t happen often so thanks for that.
My pleasure, Geoff.
I had a Dorgi (Dauschund/Corgi) and he was adorable!
Awwww!
You are silly Mitch!! LOL ♥
Thanks, Samantha!
Just like my car, my dog is a hybrid.
She runs on food and love . . . but
mostly food 🥣 🐕
;>)
I hadn’t known about hybrid dogs. You have enlightened me!
That’s a riot! They couldn’t leave well enough alone. 🤣
My son has a Pomchiweenie: part Pomeranian, part Chihuahua, and part Dachsund. Oddly enough, he really does not look like ANY of those breeds.
There’s a rebel in every family.
