Stimulus Money Well Spent

 Covid has made the entire world crazy, and I guess to help people out we have been issued 2-3 $1200 stimulus checks to get the economy back to somewhat normal. Well, I think you were probably supposed to use it to eat out or buy a big screen TV or something like that, but I had other plans for some of it. I had to know what kind of crazy breed combination Scout was! The Humane Society wouldn't even wager a guess as to what breeds or the size that she was going to be. I ordered the kits in the mail to do dog DNA testing. After some assistance from Emmy both dogs were swabbed, and we were about to find out what breed combos they were. We had to wait 4 weeks for the results. 

Scouts came back as her being 19 different breeds. No wonder she is so unique looking! 15% Lab, 11% Coonhound, 11% Australian Cattle Dog, 6% Chow Chow and Husky but by far the funniest was 4% Mexican street dog. I had no idea that this was even a breed. Robb decided she is 100% Mexican street dog to him!

Little Mexican Street Dog may have had too much tequila and tacos last night.

We couldn't leave Lucy out of the fun, so we did her dog DNA too. Hers wasn't as surprising as Scout's. Lucy was 11 different breeds. She is 62% Australian Cattle Dog, 11% Golden Retriever, 8% Border Collie and 4% German Shepherd. I would say that 4% Shepherd comes through strongly! And we know where she gets her herding instincts since almost every one of those is a herding dog.
