    breed id help...

    My friends got a really cute puppy at the shelter the other day. It was marked shepherd mix. i think its body looks like a shep, but the face looks a little different. Its estimated that he's 10-12 weeks old and he weighs probably 15-20 lbs...I hope you all can see the pictures...i got them from my friends and can't figure out how to make them bigger...

    It will, of course, be easier to tell once it gets older.  I think this is one of the pretty mixed up mixed breeds (one or both parents mixed) .
     
    It has a houndish look about it to me.  I don't really see any Shepherd in it at all.

    He's very cut and looks like their could be some Lab in him somewhere and maybe alittle Rott. But I think its kinda to young to tell what he is, yet.

    I agree with Shelterdog, tho, it doesnt look very much like a Shepard.

    I want to say that it looks like has some kind of hound mix, like a beagle or coonhound.

    my first reaction was beagle, something about the face, the expression. i am clueless as to what it would be mixed with though. i dont think any of it resembles shepherd other than the coloring, but there a ton of other breeds with the same coloring. cute pup!

    i thought hound mix as well. he may change a good bit in the next few weeks or months though and look totally different than he does now.

    when we first got sydney he looked almost 100% sibe except for the droopy ears. now he looks a lot more lab-ish to me. plus his coloring has changed a good bit. he isnt as red looking as when we first brought him home.

    cute pup though no matter what he is.

    He's huge . . . could he be like a bull mastiff mix?  Maybe some beagle?
