What breed would you say my puppy is?

Got my gorgeous little pup recently, he's a lovely little boy 😍

Friends and family however, have said that he doesn't look like the breed he is, just wondering what you'd presume him to be on first look?

German shepperd?

confusednortherner · 30/03/2020 22:29

German Shepard cross?

myfav · 30/03/2020 22:29

German Shepherd but not quite as 'chunky' so I'd assume a cross.

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 30/03/2020 22:30

German Shepherd with something else in the mix!

myfav · 30/03/2020 22:30

He's very gorgeous though

LaurieSchafferIsAllBitterNow · 30/03/2020 22:32

GSD cross....maybe collie/ golden retriever.....that brindle leg effect is very common

have you a pic with a person in for scale?

GetTheSprinkles · 30/03/2020 22:37

My first thought was German Shepherd cross Border Collie but reading other guesses I agree there is a bit if a sighthound look to him too

ChewChewIsMySpiritAnimal · 30/03/2020 22:42

Looks like a real mixture to me, definitely with some sighthound - which is essentially what a lurcher is. Bit of collie, alsation and sighthound i think. We had a mix like that. She was the greatest dog that ever lived.

princessconsuelabananahammock2 · 30/03/2020 22:46

Yes, Alsatian/German shepherd is what people have been saying!

So what breed is he supposed to be?

Whitney168 · 30/03/2020 22:50

I’m confused as to the angle you’re coming from, OP, when you say ‘the breed he is’?

I would assume a mix including Whippet and Collie, with a bit of GSD. If you bought him as a breed, then I think you were had. If you paid a nominal fee for a mix, then he’s a cute pup.

Either way, hope he grows up happy and healthy.

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 30/03/2020 22:50

OK - and?

Presumably he's not that then? So - a poodle? A dachshund? A dalmatian?

missmouse101 · 30/03/2020 22:51

So what breed is he?

princessconsuelabananahammock2 · 30/03/2020 22:51

He's a collie 🤷🏻‍♀️

milkydare · 30/03/2020 22:51

A Dalmatian 😂

Whitney168 · 30/03/2020 22:52

No, he’s definitely not a Collie ...

LochJessMonster · 30/03/2020 22:53

He's a collie No he’s not. Sorry.

PolloDePrimavera · 30/03/2020 22:53

He's not a collie. He looks like he's having an existential crisis and worrying himself about what he is ! He's a little sweetheart.

Whitney168 · 30/03/2020 22:54

A Dalmatian 😂

It was Malinois that killed me ...

ChewChewIsMySpiritAnimal · 30/03/2020 22:55

Maybe a smooth collie then? Would make sense with the shape of his muzzle.

Whitney168 · 30/03/2020 22:56

Nope, nothing like a Smooth Collie.

DianaT1969 · 30/03/2020 22:57

Did his mum look like a collie? 😕

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 30/03/2020 22:57

Um - what breed of collie, specifically?

Not border, rough, smooth, obviously...what other types are there?

FlaskMaster · 30/03/2020 22:58

I was going to say GSD cross collie.
