I was thinking that a lot of you guys are dog people so i wonder if someone can tell me what our puppy is mixed with. We were told that she is a german shepherd. I was hopeing that when she was done teething that her ears would stand up. Well she lost all her baby teeth and she is floppy eared. I know that she is mixed but whith what i do not know. I got her from the local SPCA. She is a pretty dog and we are going to love her no matter what. Her tail is HUGE! It touches the floor when she stands. She is going to be a verry big dog judging from her paws. I just cannot believe how big her tail is! Im going to add some pics that i took from my cell phone so they are kinda crappy. I hope later tonight to get better pics of her so i can post em. Thanks in advance for any help!

I see some German Shepard in her. Maybe a wee bit of lab of some sort. General speaking, I would just call her a "Heintz 57." I like "mutt" dogs - most have great dispositions and are very good household pets.

You want the proper answer? It will cost you some money but if you google dog dna testing there are tests that will tell it all.

Congratulations on getting a shelter dog. Good move! :D

might be able to tell more as she gets older.
if she growes into her feet i'll bet she runs over 55# and 21"

The color and darkness around the snout and large paws speaks mastiff. The color variation in the coat resembles Shepard.

Wise choice on a rescue. My wife and I drove a 12 hour round trip to get ours and he was worth every bit of time and effort.

Does she have fully webbed paws ?

The first impression was Yellow Lab.


Enjoy

I'm seeing what might be a lab/chow/shepherd mix, likely in that order. Big guess on the chow, but the side view looks really chow. Don't tell your insurance company that, though! (Chows can get your insurance cancelled)
