He's a Blue Merle Paterpoo, Mother was a Bronze Patterdale Terrier called Gin (hence his name, the whole litter were named after various Gins), Father was Nortnewydd Merlot at Glendream, a Blue Merle Miniature Poodle (from American Imported bloodlines), size will be about 15 to 18 inches at the withers.
He's a beautiful dog and I'm sure is a wonderful addition to your family. I'm not familiar with the Patterdale Terrier, I'll have to check it out.
We haven't had dogs for a number of years. Quite awhile ago we had a small Terrier-poodle mix, he was only about 7 1/2 pounds but he had an outsize personality and we also had a Pharaoh Hound...a lovely personality she had and boy could she run quickly.
Our daughter and her husband now have a dog from Northern Canada. He's part Siberian Husky, part Greyhound and part other dogs I'm sure
. He is a sled dog type. Very powerful, fast, lot's of endurance...and a lot of fun. Smart too, keeps me hopping.
