Guesses Welcome

• Guesses Welcome TexasDaisy Posted : 9/24/2006 9:14:00 PM My boyfriend's family has had this dog (Mongo) since he was a puppy (about 3 or 4 years, I think) & we've really been wondering what it could be. He's about 60 lbs, medium height. They also had his sister/littermate who has since disappeared. She was white. I apologize for the size of this picture, but I'm a walking technical difficulty. We would appreciate any guesses y'all might have!      LIKE 16 REPLIES 902 VIEWS LAST POST RON2 Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Xebby Posted : 9/24/2006 11:46:31 PM I'm going to give it a wild guess and say Lab/GSD maybe a little pitt in there. If his sis was white I'm thinking more yellow lab in there. Cute dog![] 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Pam Posted : 9/25/2006 7:44:07 AM Shepherd for sure and maybe Golden except he would be furrier.  Must be some shorter hair breed in him.  He looks so sweet!  0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• TexasDaisy Posted : 9/25/2006 5:23:07 PM I don't know if it helps any to mention it, but Mongo is very "independent," territorial, has a very strong prey drive (goes hunting at night--he's a farm dog, so he's not in a fence), & really isn't much of a petting dog. He's a obsessive-compulsive fetcher, though. He'd much rather you throw something for him to chase than for you to touch him at all. Not sure if that's a sign of some retriever in him, or just a doggy mental disorder.  0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• C K Posted : 9/25/2006 6:23:15 PM Between the pic and his temperament, he sounds like a Chow/Lab.  He looks really sweet!  0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• melindar Posted : 9/26/2006 9:46:14 AM You know, I think I'm going to go a little different way with this.  What about Lab/Rottweiler mix?  To me the head & eyes look a lot like a rottweiler.  0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• sue fitzpatrick FITZPATRICK Posted : 9/26/2006 11:30:31 AM Looking for a short haired breed??? and that head shape and the eye set-how about a Rhodesian ridgeback-it would also account for the prey drive and aloofness 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• RupsMom Posted : 9/26/2006 3:38:19 PM The eyes and brows def. look rottweiler to me. And some sort of retriever. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Melaney B. Posted : 10/1/2006 9:21:22 PM I totally agree on the rott eyes! The head shape is just screaming rott, and the body, I am saying, Lab! I don't see any chow in him, but, I have a question for you. Is the color of your pups tounge have any large blue or black spots? It's a promentant gene in chows. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• TexasDaisy Posted : 10/1/2006 11:30:25 PM No, his tongue is all pink. It sure would make it easier to tell if he had a black tongue...or a rottwieler-typical coloring....or anything remotely distictive. The poor compulsive mutt, hehe    I appreciate all the guesses!!! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Stacita Posted : 10/6/2006 7:51:04 AM Is the coat sort of finely textured and soft? I'm thinking with that fawn color, possibly part Belgian Malinois which would also be a fit size-wise, and something with floppy ears such as the lab or rottie. This is Wolfgang who we think is Belgian Malinois/Akita. He's in the 80 lb range, 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
