Any guesses before I get him DNA tested?
This is my very lovable Tucker that I rescued from a shelter back in January. We think he is somewhere around 7 years old and he weighs about 55-60 lbs. Anyone want to take a guess as to what might be in him. I really have to get him DNA tested, I'm way too curious.

Purebred sheltie or not?
This guy is at a local humane society, and I put in an application for him. They say he is a purebred sheltie, but he looks like a mix to me. He is a color headed white, so it is not the color that is wrong, the coat length and tail look wrong to me. He is 2, so he should have more coat I think, unless...

Guesses on this mix?
I was looking at local shelter dogs and found this dog. Isn't he scary? And by scary I mean wickedly cool and probably the sweetest dog ever. Any guesses on breeds?

My first dog- breed guesses
First of all, sorry about the quality, but these were the only pics I could find of him. My scanner is horrible , hence the lines across the pics... Anyways, this is my childhood dog- the first pet I had. His name was Shack. He had to be put down at the age of 12 due to severe HD (He'd had two...

This is the breed DH and I are about to get. He/she will be raised with our sheep and goats, just like our Pyr will be. We are pretty excited to bring one into our home, since he had one growing up, and adored him. Anyone else a fancier?

Hunting Basenjis
I read a column in Dogs in Canada this month about a fellow who hunted with his basenji. I loved it! He said that while basenjis don't fall into typical western hunting techniques, that they were master hunters what used a combination of scent and sight. It was really interesting to read about. I...

Labradoodle for first-time dog owner?
There is a two-year-old labradoodle available at my local vet's. I would like to give my parents a dog, since they watched mine for 6 weeks and got very attached to her. Do you think this breed would be a good match for them? My own dog, a basset/golden mix, weighs 40 pounds, is energetic and needy...

Poll on his breed...
Questions: 1. What breed do you think I am? 2. How big do you think I will get? 3. Is it true that puppies may have shorter hair at first but will be longer as an adult? I'm super curious as to what other people (who've been around dogs a lot) would say my new dog's breed is. He's...

Catahoula and ?
Here's a pic of my catahoula mix. Curious as to what you think he is mixed with. Its hard to see in the pic, but his body is shaped like a catahoula, but I think theres something in his face that's different.

Any Guesses??
My Grandma just got this puppy and we have no clue on what breeds she is mixed with. A man's house burned down and he left the momma dog behind and she had puppies. Animal Control came and took the other puppies. Sorry I couldn't get many pics. Lady doesn't like the camera!

have u heard of this breed
My dog is a skipperke.[sm=wink3.gif] Which is great, but no one has ever heard of that breed. When people ask what he is they go "skipper-what". Some people say he looks like a pig. There aren't any pics of skipperkes! I have to draw pics of him.
