Thanks Gina for posting the pictures. Good call. I knew I could rely on you. You and I both usually guess pretty much the same on breeds. I don't always post but I follow, especially the guess the breed threads. Try to keep in practice for figuring out our own fosters. I forgot all about that dog. Maybe that is why this little fellow looked so familiar to me. It is probably just a guess on that dog too, as he was rescued from a shelter. I do think though, that you can definitely see Schnauzer in that dog, with the shape of the head and some of the coloring. I can maybe see Husky in him as well, or something along that line. Course there may be several breeds. Since it looks pretty much like he has schnauzer and he has that strange coat...though thicker than our guys, but still very similar, maybe one of the breeds in our little fellow is schnauzer. That was one of the breeds on my mind. His head and face are more round like the Boston and to me it looks as though the pattern in the face is more Boston. He is Brindle in color, along with the white. I've been thinking of putting Boston, as the first breed, and then maybe schnauzer, but just wanted some others thoughts on it. Seems as though some others have thought Boston as well. You have to have some breed listed for petfinder. And usually once you put the breed and people see it, then it just seems to be that is what the dog is for sure, so I try really hard to come up with some accurate breed ideas. We can't be sure. It is a guessing game, but we can try to do our best.
