"Give me a photorealistic picture of a wolf combined with a corgi, and give it a silly sounding name"
The dog breed is real

Neato! Are they like regular corgis, but just grey?
Seems like a somewhat healthier race than corgi. Average age 15 years versus Corgi's 12 years 3 months.
What do you mean silly sounding? Västgötaspets Doesn't sound silly at all
I literally have one of these dudes next to me 24/7!

Cute pupper. He does look quite different than the posted dog though. Is it the same breed?
That's not a Västgötaspets, looks more like a mixed breed.
It's possible he is a mix. We rescued him and the shelter said he was a vallhund. They also have this coat type that looks like a German Shepard so who knows 🤷♂️
The name is actually just "herding dog" but in Swedish. It's kind of weird to not translate it since it's just a compound word, not a "name".
