Talking Border collie mix...with what?

My hubby and I got a new puppy and I was told that he is a tri border collie but he def looks mixed with something but I don't know what! Does anyone have any idea what he could be mixed with? I adopted him from a puppy rescue in PA. My friend also got one thats a female blue merle but from a different litter. I'm gonna ask my vet at his next appointment but thought I could get some insight now. Thanx in advance!

Holy crap, what a cute dog!! Lucky you!

I think you are right - he's not purebred...although I've never seen a tri-color BC before, so that could be throwing me off.

Maybe he has some Husky in him - the dense fur, solid features and eyebrow patterns. When he grows it will become more apparent.

Anyway, what an absolutely awesome rescue find you have there! Enjoy him! (I'm jealous ops: )

Oh, how precious. I think he looks more like an Australian Shepherd, rather than Border Collie, though. (A lot of people lump them together as the same, but they are actually two completely different breeds.)

He is a great looking dog! I have to agree with Finchesca that he kinda looks like there could be some Husky there.

Actually, maybe Malamute! In which case you're going to have one big cuddly dog on your hands in a few months!!

We need to find a Malamute breeder to ask... anyone know one?

Cool

The vet seems to think he's mixed with a husky. But when I took him to Petco to get him groomed and then to Petsmart after to walk around, everyone seemed to think that he was just a collie puppy. So now I'm even more confused! LoL He was sooo cute at Petsmart though. He greeted every single person he saw with licks and tail wags. Just being groomed and being super soft also helped him with all the attention he was getting. He was the hit of the store. LoL I'm going to take him again I think tonight with my 6 year old. Of course when I was there he made friends with this HUGE great dane. So cute!! As for the rescue who I got him from...It was sooo hard to walk away with just one! I think if I was single and my husband wouldn't mind having more dogs I def would of adopted 2! A long haired weimaraner is what I want next! I would love to get one now but thats not going to happen
