Who wants to play another round of guess what my foster dog is?

You guys kindly identified the last one as a Greek Kokoni - which I had never even heard of. I thought he was just a floof 😀

Any ideas on this guy? He's from Romania but as you can probably tell he is blind. He was dropped at a kill shelter but was thankfully rescued and arrived with me yesterday after a very long journey. We think he's 5 months ish.

If he's from Romania he is probably about 50 different things like my Rommie but I would say some staffie and some border collie along with a bit of everything else.

Romanian Carpathian Shepherd Dog x pointer

Lab, border collie, staffie mix?

I knew you would all say mash-up!

He's adorable but seems to be very high energy. He's had a 20 minute nap since 7am this morning and hasn't stopped since. All the other pups I have had at that age have a decent morning and afternoon nap!

He is from the 'beautiful puppy dog' breed!

Staffie plus lab was my first thought also.

LameBorzoi · 14/09/2023 02:09

Is he blind due to being a double merle? In which case I would guess collie x great Dane, as he would need merle from both parents.

He’s a bit of Slinky and Mr Potato Head when he hasn’t got his eyes in. Gorgeous.

LoonyLois · 14/09/2023 03:14

I’d put money on him being a double Merle. Definitely got collie in him

RememberWhy · 14/09/2023 04:53

Yes. 100% gorgeous!!

Mollymalone123 · 14/09/2023 05:50

I was going to say Merle border collie as well in the mix due to eyesight.hope he finds a loving home plus lab

JustKen · 14/09/2023 06:02

He's a Very Good Boy. That's it!

Oblomov23 · 14/09/2023 06:37

He's a cutie!

Messyhair321 · 14/09/2023 09:00

Aww he's energetic because he can't believe he's out of a cage & out of danger. He can finally relax

AreYouShittingMe · 14/09/2023 12:12

Nothing useful to add, but OMG those ears!
He's a beautiful boy, that's for sure 😍

Thank you all. Need to google Merle.

He's so lovely when I get him up in the morning he wraps both his 'arms' round my neck for a long and noisy cuddle 🥰

Terrified if the lead though. Just lies down - I only tried to take him a few metres up the road so will try and practice in the garden. Any tips?

As others have said, he will be double merle (curses on the people who allowed this to happen), and I would guess that he is probably some sort of Collie/Lab cross.
