Ha ha, I love his chosen viewing material.
It even looks like he's got paw-control of the mouse pad there. Eeek!

That smiling expression is most typical for american type RB. Males of Scandinavian type are supposed to look mean and cruel. Which is essentially caused by a little fold above their eyes. They are very kind fellows.
This with an angry look is a point in the Fanzine in the Harry Potter - Hogwart wordl "A Malfoy in Hufflepuff". Hey, I must translate it someday, and republish here on TCS.
Dont they do have a label "domestic"? Also, I would guess the rate for domestics is lower than for purebreds. As getting a new purebred is usully much pricey than for a domestic, so they must count with this when they decide the interest rate. By the same reason, there is usually no or very low insurance for dead domestics, while it can be quite substantial for purebreds.
^_^ thanks, @StefanZ that's quite an adorable tale you have started, there!
For everyone else, I suppose the biggest reason I'm trying to get a bead on what Binx is (mostly) is for pet insurance purposes... They require a breed, and "maltese" wasn't listed on their breed list. I'm going to go back and look again, but short of genetic testing... meh.
I love my sweet little Captain Puffypants (Binx). He probably hates me for that nickname
With the association you mean the shelter?
@StefanZ You're probably right, but I have this "honest to a fault" problem. Since I adopted him and he was labeled Russian Blue by the association, I used that on my application. A nurse (vet tech?) at the clinic where I take Binx recognized him as a RB, because she'd had several... so I felt compelled to list him as an RB, based off of both the vet tech and organization's opinions.
