A service dog that has it in its blood since day 1 would be amazing for disabled people. And perhaps I should make that too. What do y'all think? Does it exist already?

Thank you @mira222.bsky.social for following me and sorry I've been mia for a while, life has been busy. I was also thinking: why not make another perfect dog breed but for disabled people? Sure German Shepherds, Labrador and Golden Retrievers do this job well, but, they weren't' designed for it.

All these follow are making me smile :)

Sorry for not posting for a while, things in my life have been going on. I will still be advocating for this breed while also juggling over ambitious projects. Maybe I may connect them to this.

Lastly, I would like for any vetenarians, genealogists and trainers to join this project.

I can't make this dream breed healthy and raised well without you, as I only know so much.

My followers, like and repost these posts to increase visibility so others can be aware of my mission.

Thank you.

I mean, that's life right?

The Magnum Opus Project @mydogbreedproject.bsky.social · Nov 26

Three more followers!? I am very happy :) Thank you for following me!

The Magnum Opus Project @mydogbreedproject.bsky.social · Nov 26

23 followers! A nice surprise. Sorry I haven't been on the app/web version lately. Been busy drafting the standard for this breed. Yeah, it doesn't exist yet but better to have a clearer idea than none and leading those who join this project blindly.

This breed will not be too small nor too large. The aim is 40 to 55 lbs. This will make sure this breed can handle some rough housing either while playing or protecting but make it harder to develop hip and/or elbow dysplasia — the opp of all dog breeds.

(sorry for posting late, got distracted :'D)

Morning #BlueSky Imagine my joy in seeing that I now have 19 followers! Thank you for the support. I will post more about this future breed today.

The Magnum Opus Project @mydogbreedproject.bsky.social · Nov 23

The Australian Cobberdog is also a near perfect companion breed. Pity the allergies.

None of that will be in this breed I assure you :)

The Magnum Opus Project @mydogbreedproject.bsky.social · Nov 23

Some would argue that creating a new breed is not ethical. And I agree. Also promising to make a dog prefect is quite the task. I agree.

It's a good thing I'm up to the challenge.

Because it's not impossible. The American Bully is a near perfect companion breed. Pity it's brachycephalic.

The Magnum Opus Project @mydogbreedproject.bsky.social · Nov 23

Thank you for the 10 follows already :) I can't wait for all your questions!

The Magnum Opus Project @mydogbreedproject.bsky.social · Nov 23

So, interested in helping to develop this breed? Or just want to see this unfold? Then follow this account for updates and click the link in the description if you wish to add your breeding stock to this project!

Realistically this breed will take on the low end twenty to forty years to establish a population and more to become official. While I may not live to see the end of this project, I wish to live long enough to see the beginning of it.

This dog breed is to benefit families, the elderly, first time and experienced owners as well as suitable for apartments, houses with no fenced yards or small, medium and large fenced yards and farms.
