Every dog has its own beautiful traits that make it unique. Some have beautiful eyes while other pups have a long, shiny coat that makes them a good contestant at dog shows.
One dog, which is a mix of German Shepherd and Borzoi, had caught the attention of the netizens because of his neck that appears to be very, very long. In fact, it’s much longer compared to other dogs.
Say hello to Gatsby, the long-necked dog
Gatsby’s unnamed owner shared that she had stumbled upon the dog in 2019. At the time, she believed that Gatsby was the one for her.
When Gatsby was old enough to be adopted, the owner immediately brought him home. She said that she wanted to teach the dog so many things. The dog was able to learn parkour, balance training, and blood tracing. Eventually, the bond between the two had gotten stronger than the owner could have imagined.
The owner had decided to document her dog’s life through videos, which she posted on YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok. As the dog grew up, his towering height and long neck became more noticeable. It shouldn’t come as a surprise, as Gatsby was a combination of German Shepherd and Borzoi, breeds that were known to be big.
People have various reactions.
People who met Gatsby didn’t only find him adorable; they were also curious about his long neck. Some even claimed that the dog might have the DNA of a giraffe.
Some commenters online said that Gatsby resembled a horse. One netizen said that he looked like a dog from the Star Trek cartoon. Another said that Gatsby might be actually a mix of Border Collie and a giraffe. A third commenter said that the dog looked like a llama.
Nevertheless, one couldn’t deny that Gatsby was one beautiful, majestic dog. He had even inspired artists to draw an elegant portrait of him.
