Mixed with?

[AnimalsAreforMe]

Im sure your sick of seeing this dogs mug lol but..... I know that he is an Akita Mix but im not sure with what. I was think Collie maybe Border Collie or Australian Shepherd possibly? What do you think?
He's considered medium sized btw

It's hard to see from this picture.... His hair on the back looks shorter, more like a Australian Cattle Dog (Blue Heeler). And he does have that more pointed nose of a BC or Aussie. Hmmmm... Luna (pic below) we think is 1/2 BC. I recently "met" a dog that was 1/2 lab and 1/2 bc (they knew) and it looked just like her

I don't know if it's his face or what, but I see border collie.

Do you have a pic of the butt?
lol, weird yes, but I'd like to see the tail. My best guess is a Basenji/BC mix.

I'm with Nedim... need to see the butt! "BUTT" just seeing this pic, I'd say cattle dog is in there...

You know the more i look at him I agree with most of you that he has ACD in him. My uncle has a ACD mix and Danny reminds me in the face and coat type of him completely. I don't know i will ask his foster moms opinion too.

German Shepard/collie mix? Or German Shepard/Sheltie mix?

I'd like to see his butt too LOL a full body pic would be great.

I really don't see any border collie in him. He does look like he has some australian cattle dog in him though.

I know...

He is definately not part border collie or australian shepherd, his coat would be longer. Im 99% sure he is mixed with australian cattle dog. look at his color.

 

[gaddylovesdogs]

Actually there are short haired border collies.

However I don't see border collie at all...definitely aussie cattle dog and akita.

 

[rottiegirl]

short coated?

I never heard of short coated border collies. But I know there are short coated collies. How did you find out about a short coared border collie? I know all of the breeds recognized by the Akc and alot others.
