How much is that doggy in the window, you ask? “How much is that doggie in the window”
Well, purebred pooches do fetch top dollar in the market. But why shop when you can adopt!
And if you’re lucky, you might chance upon one that’s a mix of two equally-exotic breeds! We’re
dialing up the cuteness factor as we round up the 10 Incredibly Adorable Crossbred Dogs!
What’s up, fact-natics! This is Discovery Amuse,
serving up your daily dose of the most outrageous, outlandish, and out-of-this-world fun facts!
Stay tuned for our number 1 pick because that cutie-patootie could melt the coldest heart!
#10: Affenhuahua
Kicking off our list is this curious mix between an Affenpinscher and a Chihuahua. Taking after
one of its parents, the Affenhuahua is one of the tiniest dogs in the world. They got their smarts
and attitude from the Affenpinscher but being part Chihuahua means they’ve got a lot of sass too!
Dog: Rachel doesn’t look so bad. Dog 2: ou don’t know the half of it.
Because of their size, Affenhuahuas make great pets for apartment dwellers
especially for singles in the city. They can be a bit territorial and yappy, but these tiny cuties
will love you to bits. They can be protective too and alert you of any dangers in your surroundings.
Got allergies? No worries. With their short, often multi-color coat, Affenhuahuas rarely
shed so they’re considered hypoallergenic. And while it’s becoming an increasingly
popular as a “designer dog”, these portable pups occasionally end up in shelters and rescues.
Keep watching to find out why our top canine has become so popular among fur-parents!
#9: Shiba-Mo
This medium-sized fluffball with dense fur and perky ears is a cross between a
Shiba Inu and an American Eskimo. Since mom and pop are both considered spitz breeds,
Shiba-Mo pups, a.k.a. Imo-Inu, are generally healthy dogs.
These pooches can either inherit the white coat of its American Eskimo parent,
or the brownish color patterns as the Shiba Inu. Mind you though, their temperament can vary,
from being the stubborn and shy type to jolly and eager-to-please.
Boy: Sit boy. Hey look he’s trained. Shake. Uh-huh.
Speak. Dug: Hi there.
Either way, most Shiba-Mo’s are active and smart with a very inquisitive personality.
They usually weigh between 15 to 30 pounds and like lots of affection and activity.
So if you’re planning on getting one, make sure you’re keeping a bag full of fun tricks!
#8: Utonagan
Our next pup in the litter is a mix of not just two, but three breeds! It’s thrice the cuteness
overload with this tri-breed of an Alaskan Malamute, Siberian Husky and a German Shepherd.
If you’re into wolf-dogs, then the Utonogan is
right up your alley. This breed was developed in the 1980’s by a certain Edwina Harrison,
who was looking to create a breed that had a wolf-like appearance but with the nature
of a domesticated dog. Definitely not like Jacob Black from Twilight.
The Utonagan is one attractive and remarkable breed but first-time fur-parents beware:
this may not be the pet for you. Taking after its unique parentage of working dog breeds,
these wolf dogs require an alpha with a firm hand who they can consider the
leader of their pack. But if you train and socialize them on time,
Utonagans can make for a wonderful family pet as they are loyal, gentle and loving doggos.
#7: Rottsky
What do you get when you combine a Rottweiler and a Siberian Husky?
This oh-so-lovable wrestling buddy!
As a product of the well-known German guard dog and the Russian sled dog,
you can expect the Rottsky to be highly energetic and intelligent, so be prepared to brisk walk for
an hour at least twice a day and always have plenty of tricks under your sleeve.
Now, can we take a moment to appreciate this breed’s handsome looks? Coming from breeds
that are equally attractive, the Rottsky is a certified stunner with its medium length coat,
and a built that’s a little less muscular but longer and leaner than its Rottweiler
parent. And did I mention they can have different colored eyes too?
#6: Labsky
The Labsky is another Siberian Husky breed, this time mixed with a Labrador Retriever. Originating
in the US sometime in the 90’s, the Labsky is also called Huskador or Siberian Retriever.
Like a lot of mix-breed hounds, the Labsky can be quite difficult to identify at first glance,
because they can appear more like one of their parents and rarely have a 50/50 mix.
One thing’s for sure, these cuddly canines are gorgeous
no matter what features they got from their moms and pops.
Shaggy: Hey Scoob, you look gorgeous.
With triangular ears and a silky coat, Labskys have expressive faces that
feature a strong jaw and prominent nose. Like other Husky mix breeds,
their eye color varies, and they can sometimes have heterochromia or 2 different colored eyes.
Looking for a happy and loving dog for your family? You’re in luck with
the Labsky. If they take after their Labrador Retriever parent, they can be very friendly.
They are energetic and active so be prepared to take daily walks and play some flyball.
Labskys are also highly trainable and follow commands easily. They tend to
be very affectionate around children which makes them the perfect family pet.
Girl: That’s such a good girl, such a good girl.
#5: Goldendoodle
Its name alone already sounds so charming. What more when you stare into its brown puppy eyes?!
This offspring of a Golden Retriever and a Poodle has become a popular designer
mix breed that can be an excellent family pet because they are good around children
and can be very clingy. As in, seriously clingy.
Girl: When you have a goldendoodle, you can expect that
they are gonna want to be in your face, or on your lap or cuddling you or touching you.
Even with its glorious fur, the Goldendoodle rarely sheds which makes them great for allergic
owners. And for those who love going to the beach? This breed is the perfect
beach buddy because Goldendoodles absolutely love swimming. Can these furball get any more adorbs?

#4: Aussiepom
If being cute and cuddly is a crime, then this fuzzball is guilty as charged.
Attorney: Objection, your honor. Judge: Overruled.
Being the lovechild of a medium-sized Australian Shepherd and a Pomeranian,
the Aussiepom sports fox-like features and typically has white and black markings.
Depending on which parent they take after, the Aussiepom’s size can range from small to medium
with an average height between 15 and 17 inches and can weigh anywhere from 10 to 30 pounds.
This breed is not officially recognized by any major kennel club but it is believed to have
originated from the United States in the 1990’s when designer dog breeds were very much on-trend.
Known to be loyal, alert and attentive, you can also count on Aussiepoms to bark and
warn you of any clear and present danger. Now that’s a good boy.
Dog: I can’t bare displeasing you, my whole world collapses when you’re crossing me.
#3: Cavachon
Now this one literally looks like one of those fluffy plush dogs in the toy store.
A hybrid of the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and the Bichon Frise,
the puppy eyed, silky-coated Cavachon just looks like it’s begging to be cuddled!
Woman: Are you human, sleeping with your head on the pillow? Ooh he’s so excited.
They are a small breed that weigh no more than 15 pounds and grow no taller than 13 inches.
They are generally low shedding so it’s easy to pack them up on
your fancy carrier bag and bring them wherever you go. Which is likely to be
the case because the Cavachon is quite clingy and dislikes to be left alone.
man: C’mon let’s go to bed, come on.
Since they are a small breed, these cute pups are not very high on energy so only moderate exercise
is required, like, say, a little window shopping! All the better for them too to get exposed to a
lot of people, places and things because they have a soft temperament and get easily scared.
#2: Pembroke Sheltie
Another breed that makes for an incredible family pet is the Pembroke Sheltie, a regal,
tender and mellow offspring of the Pembroke Welsh Corgi and the Shetland Sheepdog.
Though not the biggest of dog breeds, the Pembroke Sheltie is loyal, affectionate,
and protective of its humans. When trained well enough during their early years,
they are guaranteed to be great with children and even with other household pets!
If you want to bring home awards in the next dog show, this adorable pup could also be
your best bet. Pembroke Shelties dominate their measurement group in terms of agility, obedience,
and showmanship, the makings of a four-legged star. Bonus points if it can play the piano!
The best part? This little canine celebrity sheds minimally. All it needs is a bi-weekly
brush and a bath every two months to keep it looking posh and pretty.

#1: Schnoodle
The hound with the smarts of a Poodle and the protectiveness of a Schnauzer,
meet the almighty Schnoodle. This high-energy, curly-haired dog is meant to be your little
pup forever as they typically do not get any bigger than 20 pounds.
First bred in the 1980’s, the Schnoodle has become a popular pet among many families
because 2 of its favorite things are playing and cuddling! A pup after my own heart, indeed.
Stock up on toys and tricks because Schnoodles are super smart and learn very quickly,
that’s why training them could be a breeze. In fact, they are so obedient,
they are often used as therapy dogs too. They can be trained to provide
affection and comfort to people in hospitals and retirement homes.
Man: Hey Ernie, you’re a little cutie.
Dog: So I understand you’re in a bad place yesterday, wanna talk about it?
