Sometimes people makes typos or mislabed a dog breed mostly in the sell pages of the newspapers.

So write the errors you have read or heard.

[StillandSilent]

A few weeks ago I saw this one:
Belton Malamar (German Breed)
Makes me cringe, because you know those dogs are going to be disasters.

 

[Cassiepeia]

Napolian Mastiff (they meant Neapolitan Mastiff). LOL!

Cass.

 

[Whisper]

Umm, chihuahua as "chiwawa" in the newspapers

 

[midnightbirdgirl]

This is not a mislabeled breed...but an ad rife with spelling errors:
I HAVE ONE FAWN BLUE GIRL PITBULL SHE IS VERY HEATHEY AND STRONG AND SMART SHE IS 10 WEEKS OLD LOVE EVERY BODY & SHE HAVE BIN DEWORMED & HAVE FIRST SHOTS & SHE HAVE A BIG HEAD& WIDE CHEST SHE WILL MAKE A GOOD HOUES PET ARE YARD DOG. GREAT WHITH KIDS THE FATHER IS MASTIFF MIX PITBULL NON OF THESE DOGS ARE FOR FIGHTING CALL FOR MORE INFO

Now, I have seen a SHIH TZU poodle mix called a Shee Poo, I have seen it spelled another way too

Bernese Mountain dogs being called BERMESE mountain dogs- it drives me nuts!!!

 

[Bahamutt99]

Pit Bull spelled with two Ts. And its next to impossible to find a newspaper BYBer who can spell Shih Tzu. LOL And don't forget them there Rockwilders.

There is a thread on the News page about it; sadly, it has been proven false, because it was one of the funniest things I've heard in a while!

Back on topic, a common one I see is Welch Corgis. You also see Welch Ponies a lot. I always think, "mmm, grape flavored!".

 

[AnimalLoverCatRescuer]

I think the Chiwawa drives me nuts the most. Another that is really annoying, my teacher who was a Pom breeder and showed them and had champions at dog shows and stuff, says Weimerimer instead of Weimaraner. It drives me nuts! someone in the class even was like "wait I thought it was Weimaraner?" and my teacher said no its Weimerimer :lol-sign:

 

[Bahamutt99]

Oh yeah. And this guy that used to come in to PetCo when I worked there called Dogos "Dagos." Somebody else was talking to me in Home Depot when the husband and I were there looking at chain link panels to build a kennel. He started telling me about the King Corso, and how a breeder he was talking to guaranteed 200 pounds or something like that in the first year.

Lol when I was at the National Dog Show in long beach someone seriously asked one of the breeders if their breed came from Burma!!! There was a moment of silnece after that as everyone turned to see how the breeder would act. She turned to the man and said "It's pronounced BerNese".

 

[bittervanityx]

what the h*ll is SHORKIE PUPPIES?

i was just looking through the local newspaper...lol.

 

[squirtsmom]

How about labadoor?

 

[Laurelin]

Papillon cannot be spelled by the majority of people, I've decided.

Pappilion, Papillion, Pappillion, Papilion, Papilon

 

[RD]

Boarder collie always makes me laugh. And ditto Laurelin, I've yet to meet many people who can spell (or pronounce) Papillon. I met a "breeder" who called them pa-pill-ons.

 

[Laurelin]

Others I see a lot:

Sheltland sheepdog
Germand Shepherd (?)
German Shepard
German Sheppard
Bagels (lol)

 

[Whisper]

^^^ I see German "Shepard" a lot as well.

 

[FoxyWench]

Chiwawa
Dashhond
Grave Dane
Greta Dane
Greate Dame
Maltis
Maltees
Shitsu
