There is also another Japanese dog that looks like the Akita but for the life of me I can't remember its name.

Yes - the Shiba Inu - Y
Siberian Husky - Y

Dingo - sadly not an AKC breed

The curly tail seems to be a common characteristic in the old breed dogs. Unfortunately, I can't think of anymore that have that kind of tail.

Shayne Parkinson · 02-16-2012, 06:34 PM

Llasa apso (think I've mispelled that)?
Chow chow?
That wrinkly one - Shar Pei?

Shayne swings in with more winners!

10 down, 4 to go! Can Shayne get 4 more to steal the win from Daithi?

poohbear_nc · 02-16-2012, 07:26 PM

Will Daithi remember more curly-tailed breeds?

Daithi · 02-16-2012, 08:33 PM

I think the Spitz and the Pomeranian have those kinds of tails, so are either of them winners?

Daithi · 02-16-2012, 08:35 PM

All throw out Poodle too, just because it's funny.

poohbear_nc · 02-16-2012, 08:42 PM

I'm declaring Daithi the winner - with 5 correct answers. Well done!

If you're still thinking, the rest are in the spoiler tag.

To start the ball rolling:

I've loitered outside Harry's Bar in Venice several times, and actually went inside once.

I think it's the Bellini.

Hussong's Cantina in Ensenada, Mexico: I'm going to guess this is the Margarita.
