Any guesses on what breed????

Posted : 12/13/2010 6:04:39 PM

I recently adopted this energetic girl and her breed was listed as blue heeler/lab but I don't think she has any lab in her since she is only 20lbs at around 5-6 months old. Just curious if anyone has any guesses on what she could be mixed with. I have a few pictures of her on my profile from when I adopted her. I couldn't figure out how to paste them in this message box. Guess i'm computer challenged

I would say pit bull mixed with some sort of cattle dog/heeler

CUTE Puppy!!! I'm very partial to spotted dogs Smile She looks more German Shorthair Pointer, than ACD or Lab, to me. No clue what else is in there, except a whole lot of adorable!

She's cute! Except for her markings, she reminds me of the dog who belonged to people I babysat for a long time age. Back then, we just called him a terrier mix. Looking back, I think maybe he had some Whippet in him, too. I agree, I really don't see any Lab in her. But, like I've already said- she's real cute! Enjoy!

I don't see pit bull or any bully breed in her at all. No Lab either. Looks very Cattledog like to me. I don't really see any GSP other than in the coloring, her head looks very Herder like to me, vs Pointer. I'd say ACD mix for now, but he she still has a lot of growing to do. Do you have any more recent pictures of her?

She kind of reminded me of a GSP, too, but then I realized it was her coloring/markings.

Thanks everyone for such quick responses. Ever since I got her I've been curious as to exactly what she is mixed with. I took some pictures with my phone tonight so they aren't the best quality. They are on my profile now, i labeled them numbers 1-4. The picture labeled 1 is from when I got her about a month ago. The others are from tonight

I have a friend who owns a known Boxer/Cattle Dog mix that looks very similar, except she's red. Whatever she is, she's a cutie!

For now, I'd just call her an ACD x. Sooo Cute!

I put 2 new pictures on my profile if anyone wants to see how she has changed and if you have any other guess on what breed she is mixed with :)

Definitely some ACD but not sure what else. A dog with a thicker muzzle than ACD though.

Now I can see Lab. ACD/Lab would be a good guess. She's grown from a cutie pie to a very striking looking girl. I bet she's loads of fun.

Heeler/cattle dog is clear; in the pic of her older lab or another hunter hound. I would go lab but I am biased to Lab mixes. The only thing is most every Lab mix I have ever meet was black. I have owned two Lab mixes both black but in Zoe's case mom was black dog (Lab mixed with only God know) and dad was a chocolate Lab pure bred. My current Lab mix Dad was a pure bred black lab and mom was a brown mixed breed that was dumped on some friends in the country; all but one was black amd the other was mom's color a red/brown

It depends on what they're mixed with, and what colors the Lab carries. Mick, our Lab/English Setter mix, was yellow. One littermate was, also, and the other one was black. I knew a Lab/Irish Setter mix that was yellow, too.
