Until a couple of years ago I hadn't met any wirehaired vizsla either, the wirehaired are becoming more popular now though. I wouldn't judge them by weims, they are a different breed not just a different colour. Vizslas are great, can be very hyper though but I don't think one of these dogs would be a problem for you
My guess is the same as Danielle - Old English Sheepdog - but she was first, so if it's correct Danielle's the winner!
I keep thinking that the fur looks too curly for a Old English Sheepdog or Bearded Collie. I don't think it is a small breed. It's a long shot, but I'm going to guess a Komondor or Puli
Excellent observation I'm sorry, I just realised that this breed might not be well known outside of the UK and unless you see one it can be a bit of a forgotten breed even in the UK... hint hint
YES!!!!! I met him last Monday at a game fair, he was a super little character. Well done. Over to you I'm really sorry to all of you not in the UK, I never thought of how the Beddies are probably not heard of much elsewhere, we don't even see them much here but because they are popular in lurcher breeding I am quite familiar with them. The curls made me think poodle or beddie instantly, but old english sheepdog was a definite possibility (especially a puppy) as well as your other guesses. I cropped a little too enthusiastically!
Lovely dogs, but you don't see them much know a days... Here is the next one: Sorry about the focus...
I did think about Bedlingtons for your pic running_dog but I thought it looked like the nose might belong to something a little bigger and I only thought of Bedlingtons with a show clip so the fur doesn't look the same, haha I forgot to think about the dog having more of a pet clip/not being bathed and poofed up. I haven't met a Bedlington. There arn't really lurchers here either. Although people do mix sighthound (usually greyhounds I think) into their pig dogs but I don't really know any pig dogs. I do like scruffy lurchers though, Bedlington X whippets seem to sometimes look like miniature wolfhounds or deerhound which I like.
Congratulations!!!!!!!!! LOL just came over to make the same guess, you beat me too it! The hint made it 'click' with me! Gorgeous dogs!
Bedlingtons look so beautiful when they're pet clipped not show clipped. And Lurchers, they are just gorgeous!!!!!!!
