Thanks, bilby. I got totally addicted to Wordie when I started, and ended up having to go cold turkey for awhile. Not to mention, my non-computer-based life got in the way. Now I'm trying to get back now and again to catch up some, post some, and just enjoy. Hopefully I'll be around a bit more over the summer.

Well c_b, I could only find three that are recognized: Schip-A-Pom (Pomeranian x Schipperke), Skip-Shzu (Schipperke x Shih Tzu), Schipper-Poo (Poodle x Schipperke)

Are there any mixed breeds with schipperkeys, rocks? *wonders how the hell those names would look*

I agree with you, sionnach. Believe it or not, this is less than half of the list. There are others I am tempted to add, but think I ought not to.

This list, amusing at first, is starting to become faintly sinister, by virtue of its sheer length. The American Canine Hybrid Club clearly has too much time on its hands.

Next thing you know they'll be churning out modern-day manticores and chimeras.

And I'm not at all sure what I think of pootalian. Not at all.

Or else, ought to be followed by, "Gesundheit."

"Kerrbluschnauz" sounds like something that should be shouted when you stub your toe.

John, nothing stops us from finding a girl to buy two jugs, a big burly guy to play her boyfriend, and show up to the same block in New York City with you, where you could play out this scenario. Plus, since the beatings you receive will be fake, you could do it daily.

Oh gosh, just think of the conversations!

"Oh, isn't she sweet! What kind of dog?"
"A brat."
"Yeah, I spoil mine too!"

"That's beautiful. Havapeke?"
"Not interested!"
"No, I mean your dog..."

"Wow! What a shocker!"
"Excuse me?!"

"What kind of dogs are those?"
"Well, one's a bagel hound, and one's a biscottie."
"... Do you always name your dogs after baked goods?"

"What a cute dog! What kind is it?"
"It's a daug."
"Yeah, but what kind?"
"A daug. A daug...?"
"Yeah, I get it! Nevermind. Jeez!"

"Wow! Quite a crustie you've got there! ... Does it eat much?"

Actually I've heard of chiweenies. They sound like the cutest thing that ever lived.

Haha! John, I'd love to see that scenario play out. I'll be chuckling for days just thinking about it.

Phenomenal list! Favorited.

How I long to come across someone (man, woman, doesn't matter) walking a pair of jugs, so I can say "that's a nice set of jugs you've got there."

C-b: I definitely intend to list each combination on its respective page. It may just take a few days (between work and company, oh, and sleep). :)

One of the coats I've worn in my life is that of a veterinary technician, and I stumbled upon the complete list while looking for something else. I could hardly believe my eyes, and couldn't stop myself from laughing out loud. Of course, the very first actual thought I had was, "there's no way around making Wordie list out of this mess!"

Ressetee: Yup, I'd bet most of these mutts have been viewed down some pretty long muzzles, if you know what I mean. ;)

Wow. With names like these, the poor things will get beat up in the parking lot of the American Kennel Club!

What a list! I'm favoriting it.

It would be great (for me) if you could find the time to enter a definition for each one on the page. I can't figure out what half of these are supposed to be!

*thinks of strange dog-unicorn-wyvern combinations*
