help identify my beautiful puppy please

Not sure if I really do see much collie in him at all other then his tail. I would guess shepherd and perhaps the shape of his body would even make me say Lab.  Seems to be a mix of a mix of many breeds. A long shot, but maybe he might have Black Mouth Cur in there as well?

He really is a good looking dog whatever he may be, welcome to the forum!

I would have said GSD mix or even GSD but there's that white tail tip....  Could also be a Malinois mix too.  Hard to tell without a full body shot and not knowing the size.

and dang ... all i get is a red X - it won't show the picture.

Thanks Xebby

Intresting that you think Lab, the rescue centre suggested Lab as well when he was tiny, I had sort of ruled that out as I assumed he was a Collie  and something else Shepherd wise, think it ws the ears and the white paws and chest that made me go down that road.

 Thanks again

Thanks All

 I had been told Malinois as well so that is definately a possibility as his shape seems a bit more that than a GSD too.

 Oh well. He's lovely whatever he is  just thought it might give me heads up temperament wise. He's been a star so far so not too concerned.

Thanks again everyone

all I got was a red X too but when I clicked on that the pic came up. 

 Malinois would be way less likely than GSD.  He looks like a fairly small dog, so maybe something smaller mixed with GSD?

He's got the kind face of a German Shepherd and some herding breed maybe.  He's beautiful.

 Ah, now I see your dog, he is beautiful.

He is very pretty!

I'd say GSD/Collie mix....  That mix seems to be popular as working/herding/guards for livestock, at least around here.
