Mixed dog breed with Vira-lata is the most common one

There are at least 400 breeds of dogs around the world. Popularly, any dog that is not a purebred is known as a "Vira-Lata". In fact, the correct nomenclature of a Vira-Lata is "Without Defined Breed (SRD)". This is the correct term to refer to a mixed dog, whose breeds we cannot recognize.

The crossing of an SRD dog and a dog with Pedigree almost always results in beautiful and healthy puppies, as the chances of the litter inheriting some hereditary condition of the breed dog are lower. In fact, Vira-latas also haveless chance of developing a health problem.

With so many dog breeds out there, it is possible to cross different breeds. An example is the Labradoodle: a mix of Labrador and Poodle. In addition to this, we talked to some guardians who have unusual mixtures at home.

Since then, it's been 9 years", he says.

Judging by his short legs, Beatriz sees two possibilities: Dachshund or Corgi, Queen Elizabeth's famous dog. She says that it was at about 9 months of age that she began to suspect this kinship: "His body grew, but his paws didn't grow," she explains.
