Pitskies are the incredible and adorable mix of pit bull terrier and husky. Huskies are fluffy good boys that hail from Siberia, and often worked as sled dogs. They can have beautiful markings and be either white and red or white and black in color. Pit bulls are stockier with less fur, and are known for being tough, as well as cute! The result of mixing these two breeds is pretty amazing. Meet: The Pitsky.
These guys are a great option if you live in a warmer climate but love huskies, since pure-bred Siberian sled dogs shouldn’t really live in Florida! This breed typically has a laid-back personality, and they make excellent companions for families.
The Maltese Shih Tzu
They should really work on coming up with a more creative name for this breed, which is a mix of Maltese and Shih Tzu. Why hasn’t anyone started calling these guys Maltzus or something? This breed is known for being very gentle and kind-natured. Its loving personality makes it a wonderful dog for a family with children.
Maltzus love to play, and they need to get exercise like all other dog breeds. However, they’re fairly low energy and, since they’re small, they do better in smaller homes or apartments than their larger brethren. Plus, did we mention how freakin’ cute they are?
The Golden Rottie
This good boy is one of the best guard dogs that you could imagine. He’s a combination of a German Rottweiler and a Golden Retriever, which means he’s made up of some very smart, and very loyal, breeds. The Golden Rottie is extremely loyal to his family and will be fiercely protective of the people he loves. They do love to play and have a lot of energy, so they need to be with families that are going to keep them active and engaged.
They can be quite large, growing to be between 70 and 90 pounds, but they are gentle in nature and can act like big teddy bears. They love to cuddle as much as they love to play, and they enjoy pretending to be lap-dog sized as they sit with their owners on the couch.
The Shollie
Shollies are the delightful combination of a German Shepherd and a Border Collie. These two breeds are known for being super intelligent and are often used as working dogs for a variety of purposes. Shollies are incredibly smart and often very easy to train. They’ve usually got calm dispositions and are pretty laid-back on a regular basis. However, they do still love to play and prefer owners that lead an active lifestyle, that will include them in the actions.
Shollies make the perfect dog for those that love to hike, or hang out by the ocean, and they can even be trained to enjoy the water with you. This breed is very loyal and will devote their entire heart to their owners and families.
The Hug
Who on Earth doesn’t want a doggo that’s literally called a “hug?” This good-looking guy is a cross of a Siberian Husky and a Pug. Hugs usually tend to be on the larger side, thanks to their Husky side. They can also be a little stubborn – also an attribute they get from their Husky relatives. However, these guys are fiercely loyal, and make good pets for a family with children.
They love to play and have high levels of energy, which means they need to have somewhat active owners. Hugs are extremely intelligent and can even be trained as working dogs.
