Unusual-Looking Dog Always Gets Mistaken For A Pig On Walks

 Unusual-Looking Dog Always Gets Mistaken For A Pig On Walks

When a family in the U.S. got a dog named Ted from a shelter, they immediately fell in love with this miracle. The staff told them he was a crossbreed of Chinese Crested but had lost most of his hair because of an illness. It’s been a while and Ted’s fur has still not grown back – he still doesn’t look like a dog.

“The rescue I got him from thought he was a Chinese crested mix, but about six months after I got him, he started growing fur, so I did a DNA test,” Seaman told The Dodo. “It came back saying that he’s mostly Chihuahua and mini poodle, with a small percentage of shih tzu, and an even smaller percentage of a smattering of other breed groups!”

Ted, without a doubt, looks unique. That’s why passers-by often pay attention to him when they walk and even mistake him for a pig!
Recently, while walking, Ted was spotted by a man. He started petting him and told him that his relatives also keep pigs at home
The owners said that this happens quite often. Ted is mistaken for a pig or even a possum. They are used to this reaction, as is the dog himself. In fact, Ted is a very sweet, curious, and gentle creature. His unusual appearance only makes him unique!

“When people meet Ted for the first time, they never know what to make of him,” Seaman said. “He’s such a strange, adorable little creature! They are always delighted by him, and they always want to know what breed he is. Everyone always remarks about how cute he is and how human his eyes are!”

His attractive appearance gets Ted a lot of attention. Surely he loves getting a lot of attention  from people, as he’s a big fan of people watching. To him, people are even more interesting-looking than he is.

“He LOVES to know what’s going on,” Seaman said. “He’ll sit and watch out a window for hours if people might walk by it. On our walks, he is constantly stopping to watch people going in and coming out of places. He’s very nosy in the best way.”
