Meet Don I been watching him for the last few months while his owner been away. Don is a stout dog between 80 to 90lbs. A slobbery good natured mellow dog which hardly ever barks. Anyone know what type of breed he is? thanks Ed

ha ha not quite as slobbery as some dog but he's always snorting
the owner had the dog since a puppy originally he was named
'Don Wrinkles'
after Don Rickles
because as a puppy he was wrinkly lots of folds of skin but he's grown into his skin
now we just call him Don

How 'bout a Sharpei? Maybe with a little pit mixed in for good measure? Cools dogs, if the one you get doesn't have skin issues.

You're welcome, Ed. Mostly... Don't know about being a rock expert, but I do know they don't move as fast as dogs And they live longer, too!

Thanks Scott !
I would imagine that Don does have some pit or mastiff bred into him hard to believe he'd be pure shar pei from my research shar pei are a rare breed...

Better check & make sure that Shar Pei hasn't made any indelible marks on your carpet.

Wow! Don climbed up to the house roof? Is this a special talent of the breed! Our cat loves to get to the highest point, but didn't think dogs cared to.
