Help! I want to figure out what breed my puppy is...

[Saje]

lol, really cute!!!

she is adorable. She looks like true mutt, lol. She has that look that a lot of mutts do (at least i think so) - i always thought it was a breed, but no, lol

You look like a mutt.

She wasn't trying to insult you. "Mutt" is just another name for mixed breed... Mutts are really great dogs.

I was joking. I hate forums. In person, I'm hilarious...

i see the sheperd in your dog, and the lab tail, but he weighs so much less than the average shep or lab would at that age. i would think maybe there is a smaller breed mixed in as well?

 

[LabBreeder]

if he had rhodesian ridgeback in him he'd be bigger.......in my opinion. the colors are right but the size is off.

 

[BMPowers]

Right...

But she is totally healthy and eats a good amount. She was a tiny runt of the litter and has been gaining about a pound a week since we got her at 3 pounds at 9 weeks - a little more than that now that I do the math.

Is there any way of determining how big she'll be?

 

[bubbatd]

I agree e.g. size . Looks like a little wiener dog added if I got the right picture .

 

[thehoundgirl]

I was going to say shepherd/lab, too. very cute! 8 pounds is small. I would check with your vet to see how big she is supposed to be at how many weeks she is now. please lets us know what you find out.

 

[LabBreeder]

i definitely see the sheperd/lab mix....most especially sheperd in the face. i can't tell how tall she is or how much she weighs, but it certainly looks more than 8 lbs in the pics. get her weighed at the vet and see what he/she says about what breeds she may be. i'm willing to bet he/she will go with sheperd/lab mix. i believe australian sheperds are a little smaller than labs and german sheperds so that might explain the smaller size.

 

[BMPowers]

By looking at this picture, what kind of dog do you think this is? PICS

She is 12 weeks old, and weighs close to ten pounds.

When we get a few posts, I will post what the parents are and see if it is surprising.

Thanks so much!

As a Puppy...

 

[BMPowers]

A couple more PICS, what kind of dog is it?

12 Weeks, 10 pounds, female.

THANKS!

 

[SummerRiot]

She DEFINATELY has dauchund in her!! Look at that LONG body!! hehe

 

[BMPowers]

You see more?

Despite the long body, do you see it anywhere else in her? You see any other breeds?

 

[SummerRiot]

yup the way her tail is set on her is tha Dauch thing as well as the angulation of her face and the structure of her legs(although considerably longer then a standard Dauch).

I want to say I see Shepherd in her as well.. but shes so tiny to have that.. I just want to say it for her black mask.. hmm..

 

[RD]

I'll say predominately Dachsie, probably mixed with German Shepherd. The tail, the eyes and the rear angulation makes me think shepherd - probably not a direct Shep/Dachsie cross but I'd pin those down as her two predominate breeds.

 

[Saje]

Look at the paws in the first pic.

I see something else in her face though. I don't know. Can't miss the Dauchund though. I think she's going to get quite a bit bigger. What are you feeding her?
