Does anyone want to guess what my latest foster dog is?

I foster for a rescue and currently have custody of this little cutie. But what the heck is he?

He has very short Queen Anne legs and is long backed like a daxie. Very floofy but almost wirey type of hair.

I know he's a Heinz 57 but his face looks 'familiar' but I can't put my finger on it

I'm not a dog person and I can't help with the ID, but he is just lovely!

Coldhandscoldheart · 03/09/2022 10:34

Jack Russell plus?

I see what you mean about a familiar face, I can’t place it either. Maybe a bit if a bigger dog in there?

Unforgettablefire · 03/09/2022 10:41

I can see jrt and collie. He's lovely!

happygertie · 03/09/2022 10:44

Erm I would guess.... a very handsome good boy.

TheOriginalMrsMoss · 03/09/2022 10:45

Last pic reminds me of a Corgi.

In the head shots the muzzle area and eyes look a little bit Golden Retriever or Labrador.

One of those DNA tests would be interesting!

Gorgeous face 😍

OnTheRunWithMannyMontana · 03/09/2022 10:46

I can see collie I think. Either way he is incredibly cute!!

Loopyloooooo · 03/09/2022 10:46

Oh my, he's gorgeous!!

GrannyAchingsShepherdsHut · 03/09/2022 10:46

He looks like he has a border collie face to me.

Mrsjayy · 03/09/2022 10:47

Oh myy 😍 he is gorgeous, I have no idea maybe a collie face those collies get everywhere 😃

catinboots123 · 03/09/2022 10:47

My friend said collie so interesting you guys can see it too! Funny I've had loads JRTs my whole life but didn't spot that!

Actually his face looks like a retriever of some sort.

Pixiedust1234 · 03/09/2022 10:50

I can see sheltie more than (border) collie

Pixiedust1234 · 03/09/2022 10:53

Just shown dh the pictures as I get what you are saying about the muzzle area. Hes said German shepherd rather than collie or lab.

Plump82 · 03/09/2022 10:54

I think he is, cute!

Soubriquet · 03/09/2022 10:55

He is beautiful. I see JRT, corgi, and chihuahua or papillon in that face

picklemewalnuts · 03/09/2022 10:56

There's a lot of those about- long back, short legs, hair a bit like a retriever. I fostered a black one.

Why do their legs turn out so badly? Is it malnutrition? Does it cause problems later?

viques · 03/09/2022 10:56

He looks a bit corgi like, those turned out legs and slightly long muzzle. Maybe a bit of JR in the mix , or small collie.

OnTheRunWithMannyMontana · 03/09/2022 10:57

I was just about to say Papillion! My mama had one when I was young and he had a very similar face.

viques · 03/09/2022 10:57

Ps such sad eyes! I hope you put a sparkle back in them soon.

I believe it's a deformity caused by the leg bones growing at different rates. Apparently it can lead to arthritis in older age

Such sad eyes. He's like the cat from Shrek 😀

He is so so affectionate and cuddly. And gentle. I love him 🤦🏼‍♀️

I definitely see collie. If my husband didn't see two dogs as a limit as opposed a starting, I'd be persuading you to rehome to me... he is GORGEOUS!

Pic of a corgi x shelter (if pic works!)

Looks not a million miles away.

PicpoulDeMeNay · 03/09/2022 11:05

My immediate reaction was Sheltie - with maybe Daschund?

Oh is he likely to be a "Foster fail" ?
