What Breed(s) is our dog a mix of? (shepherd, lab, skin) - Dogs - - City-Data Forum

We have a debate about the breed of our rescued little lady. We think she's a lab - pointer - pitt mix.... ? Anyone? (This picture is 3 years old - she's now about 20 lbs heavier!!! She was a skinny thing when we first adopted her)

She's a cutie...definitely see the lab, maybe a dash of shepherd of some sort?

Yeah, I thought at first, but her hair is pretty short and her forhead has the squareness of a pitt. She also sometimes "points" when she smells something on her walks... (pointer). Thanks for the reply!

Either way, she looks very "wise" in that picture!

Yes. Too wise. LOL. She definitely PLAYS us. She knows exactly what we are saying, and she "chooses" to hear us, or not. For a rescue, she sure knows how to be a princess

Here's another shot of her I posted in another thread...

Do you have a sideways picture of her standing so we can see her tail along with how she holds it?

A standing picture would also give us a better idea of her height and body proportions.

What was her age in the first picture? What about the second picture?

We had a dog that looked a LOT like your dog. She was a Golden/Lab mix.

I have a purebred Lab and she points all of the time when outside sniffing around. It is because they are a hunting dog so it could be just the Lab in your pup. I definitely see Lab in that sweet face! Not sure what else.

Here you go! She was about 1 year in the first two pictures and these below I just took this morning... about 3 1/3 years...

I'd say lab/sheperd mix...She is a cutie.
