Here's the percentages. There are clues here and in my previous posts as to where in the world our pup was born, but bonus points available to whoever can guess the closest geographical location.

We did a DNA test on our rescue pup and got some... Interesting results.

Results seem accurate to me, this is my Kelpie Rottweiler. Face and size looks very similar. Super cuddly and loves the couch. He'll sprint to the bedroom if I ask him if he wants to have a nap with me.

Super smart though so you have to be careful what you say and how you say it. Adopted him and his brother at 4 weeks old and they were sitting on command by six weeks old. Knows about ten words just for "treat" because my husband and I ask each other if they've had one already before giving them one and they keep figuring out what we're saying. We have to text each other to ask if we want to take them to the park because even the inflection of asking that question with different words makes them go ballistic. They answer yes or no questions, didn't train them, they just figured it out. They also take turns while playing fetch, another thing we didn't teach them. They were playing fetch perfectly at like two months old and just naturally let each other have a turn.

    Oh I love him! He is absolutely assessing you and calculating the likelihood of treats/ walks / pats.

    He sure is. Just to put in perspective how smart they are, this was how young they were when they did their their first sit on command. Be careful what you teach her, she'll use it for evil (cuddles when you're busy and treats when she's already had one)

    Boola absolutely aced her puppy training. Picked up every command straight away to the point that the trainer would get her to be the demonstration dog when showing a new command to the class.
