what type of dog is Shenzi?

    Shenzi is way cute too!
     
    Pocket's about 4 months old-I  dont know how big Pocket is going to be either- at the moment her shoulder is just above my knee.
     
    Her ears have changed now too- they've flopped over more like ridgeback/lab ears.
    Maybe when Shenzi gets older, her ears'll change too and that might help you figure out what she's crossed with, although she looks like she's got some greyhound in her to me. Whatever she is- she's beautiful!

    Aww, you have a beautiful puppy!... *secretly plays and pets and runs around with your dog*

    I've seen pics of known mixes where everyone on the forum guessed what breeds they were. When we found out the answers, in almost all cases everyone was waaaay off.

     
    That's what makes the guessing game such fun!  My BC/Spaniel is a known mix, and one vet thought she was half Japanese Chin LOL.
    It's almost always impossible to pick a mix just based on photos - behavior tells you more.

    What a beautiful dog! I love brindles. My Kane is a brindle. I was told he was a pit/shephard mix when I took him in. I'll attach a pic of him as a little pup. That is also him in my signature.

    my dog has similar coloring (brindle, dark face) but is a bit stockier and blunt-nosed. i have no idea what mine is, probably both of her parents were mixed so she's lots of things. but she definitely has pit-bull like eyes.
    i think the shepherd/pit mix seems likely for your pup, but who knows, could be a mix of tons of things!!
    your puppy is adorable!

    PitMixMommy - that first pic looks almost exactly like Shenzi!  How big did Kane get?
