fur? fur? whats its fur like? if it hasshort, upright plush fur it is a mini rex. if it has normalfur it could be a mini rex cross. it sure looks like a mrtype. she was in the pet store because she has no spots onher nose. .......(at least none that i can see.)

Almost looks like a Mini Rex x English Spot mix to me. Does it have an arched body (can't tell from the photos).

I'm in INdiana! Come see me!

Also, Bo's breeder raises them I think.... I know he has Checkers.....

Now, I have heard that English Spots are difficult to raise.I am not sure if they are sickly? or something? but someone told methey don't live long

His fur is really soft if you brush with it, and really fluffy if youbrush against it, and it wont go back down unless you brush it backdown. He has no spots on his nose. Just the ones around both his eyes,and two right before his ears.

As for weight, I'm not sure. I haven't had him to the vet yet. I've gotto wait until I start my job so I can get him in there. If I were toguess, he's not over 5 lbs.

Don't know if it helps any, but his bottom end is wider than his top end (wide hips, narrow shoulders).

Sounds like a mini-rex. Is his furreally thick/dense? can you part it to see his skin or do youhave to blow on it to see down in it?

Well, you can part it, but it took a bit of work lol. I had to blow on it.

 

[Bo B Bunny]

Sounds like a mini-rex. Bo's hair is about 1/3 of an inch long maybe 1/2.

I have honestly never seen a broken with a perfect stripe down the back. Only breed I have ever seen it in is the english spot.
