What Breeds are mixed with my 16 week old Puppy

LeoPet · 01-05-2012

I got this dog from a shelter hes 16-17 weeks old and about 23-24 pounds. Was wondering what you think he is mixed with! I was thinking Aussie maybe huskey or German Shepherd? humm he will do a lil howl sometimes and has a higher pitched bark

I attached a few pic and hes a blue merle color and 2 blue smaller eyes

What a gorgeous puppy. I'm afraid however it is too soon to be able to a hazard any sort of guess as to what might be in the mix. In the same way that you can not tell what a newborn child will look like as an adult you can't begin to guess what might be in a young pup's makeup. I have a small Jack Russell but when I took him to the vet for his first injections the vet thought he was a border collie.

I do believe he is mostly aussie. We have an aussie mutt also. We think he's mixed with a border collie. I don't think your dog has any GSD in it. It could even be purebred with a tail.

I am hoping that is what he is mostly the blue eyes and merle colors. Hes just a big boy hes 25.6 today at the vet! 19 weeks! Hes a big ole baby! Trying to get him potty trained in house. He goes outside everytime and never made a mess in the cage but he will pee on my rugs and carpets lol! Might do the teather/leash trick for a while have him by my side he usually is anyways but gets up and plays with his toys and all . But yes was just wondering what other people thought. When he was a puppy he looks lots more like a aussie now he has the ears more Border collie or Huskey or GS lol! Hes a keeper though! Thanks for the reply oh and yes his tail lol!

Must be an aussie trait? Mine won't go in his crate and will go outside, but if he isn't properly supervised, he will go in the house. He will let me know he has to go if he's in his crate, but he won't if he's running loose in the house. So we can't leave him out of his crate for too long or he pees.
