The official crossbreed(or guess the breeds) Thread=)

Gatsby...have you thought Saluki? They are (in my mind) like a mini Afghan.

As for my Roxxy, I'm thinking Manchester/Rat Terrier mix myself. The rescue group had her as a Boston Terrier mix. She's the same size now as when I got her and I for do NOT see BT in her. She is a very sweet little girl, has a few touch issues, but for the most part one of the best mutts I have had the pleasure of being owned by.

This has been a great thread and it's been fun trying to "guess" the mix!

Miss Mutt...Marge is a gorgeous girl no matter what she is mixed with!

I JUST LOVE MUTTS....MUTTS RULE!!

MissMutt · 08-10-2009, 10:18 PM

I don't see BT in Roxxy either. Not at all. Rat Terrier sounds like a pretty good guess, maybe with a touch of hound and JRT.

BrittanyG · 08-10-2009, 10:44 PM

What a bunch of beauties! I'm no good at guessing, but I do want opinions..
RottixGSD is my guess, what do you guys think?

zhaor · 08-10-2009, 11:01 PM

I wanna take a stab at guessing Roxxy.......

Okay, so my guess for Marge is part beagle (or other hound), lab and some sort of sighthound. (By the way, until I saw those pics, I always thought she was jet black. What a gorgeous, interesting color she is...appropriate for a gorgeous, interesting dog!)

Laurelin, for some reason that first picture made me think of an Afghan hound.

Brittany, I'm thinking maybe rottie/lab.

I'm not good at this.

Puppy_love_122 · 08-11-2009, 10:36 AM

Here is Belle...she's half GSD and the rest is ????? We guess at least part Rottie.

And this is Shadow...we don't know for sure, but we've always guessed Shih Tzu x Poodle. What do you think??

cece6 · 08-12-2009, 08:22 AM

I hope Sasha grows up to look as good as Belle or Brittanys dog.Both very regal looking to me.(Ive seen some pretty odd looking rottie mixes that were "putting it delicately" not so good looking)..

JessRU09 · 08-12-2009, 12:35 PM

Dexter, the all-around mutt:

Two of his siblings had Australian Cattle Dog markings, one had Husky-ish markings, and one was the same color as him but with less black.

He was listed on PetFinder as an Australian Cattle Dog (though it's possible the litter had two fathers, since he bears little resemblance to his siblings). We've also guessed Boxer, Labrador, Beagle, German Shepherd Dog, Catahoula Leopard Dog, Husky, and various other things.

I want to say there's a good chance of Husky, based on his eyes, winter coat, and personality. Other than that, all bets are off. :P He's a year old now and just under 50 pounds.

Haha, thank you

I will probably DNA test her one day, but I'll do the cheek swab one as I feel kind of strange stressing her out with an unnecessary vet visit to draw blood.

As for Mayzie I really don't know what the heck she could be mixed with.. definitely a bully breed, and maybe Boxer, but I see a small breed in there too.. I wanna say Frenchie .. I don't know why.. it might just be the ears.

Yeah...I think I'll wait til we go for her annual checkup next year. Like you, I can't see just taking her in for a blood draw for something frivolous. I think I'm going to do the blood draw only because they test for more breeds than the cheek swab.

We've actually had several people mention Frenchie. We've also gotten Boston terrier and basenji (from two people, including our vet!). The basenji thing is especially funny because she was rescued from a pretty rural area here so I doubt there are lots of basenjis running around out there in Podunk, CO. Cattledog or some kind of heeler wouldn't be much of a stretch, though, to explain the ears. Although I know some APBTs have naturally erect ears. Such a mystery, she is!

Foster&Lacey · 08-12-2009, 03:13 PM

Here is my boy foster, In the picture he is 3 months old. Foster is 4 months now, almost 5 months. Foster is a German/Australian shep cross.
Foster is about 30lbs now and maybe 14'' (estimate) at shoulders

ShadowSky · 08-12-2009, 09:38 PM

Fun! Such great looking dogs.

JessRU09, I can definitely see the lab/Husky in Dexter... but beyond that, I'm not sure. He's definitely a looker though!

Here's Jake. He was listed at the shelter as a shepherd X, the officer who fostered him thought maybe hound somewhere in there do to all the loose skin and his stumpy tail. I don't see hound really, though.

And Buck... the man who owned the mom(oops litter) said he thought Australian Shepherd, Lab, Husky.

nikkiluvsu15 · 08-13-2009, 09:49 AM

This is Harleigh. She is 6 months old, as of last sunday. =D I know what breeds she is mixed with, but no one EVER guesses right. To maybe help you out a little (I'm not sure if it will..), at her 5 month appointment 2-3 weeks ago she weighed 62 pounds. By now, at 6 months I am guessing she weighs about 65-70 pounds. Somewhere around there.

I'm gonna post some more.. Gosh, I hate that you have a limit. Stupid!

nikkiluvsu15 · 08-13-2009, 09:52 AM

More pics of Harleigh...

Spirit_of_Cotons · 08-13-2009, 10:36 AM

ShadowSky--your dogs are pretty; Jake looks like, and probably isn't because I think they're very rare, a Danish Broholmer just because of the face, coloring, and the way he's standing in the first picture.

nikkiluvsu15--your dog is pretty and your kitten is so cute! Your dog looks like it has some Great Dane in there or Shar Pei because of the wrinkles and profile in the last picture.

Pretty dogs everyone!

GatsbysMom · 08-13-2009, 06:01 PM

Nikki, Harleigh looks pure lab to me, but I'm terrible at guessing breeds! What beautiful dogs in this thread.

Thanks... You got one of the breeds right! Yeah, Phoebe (kitten) is so crazy, she's funny to watch though. She acts just like a dog.. Even pants like one.

Haha.. That's what I get all the time.. Until I tell them that she's only 6 months old. She's at the weight of a full grown female Lab!

Harleigh is Great Dane/Bullmastiff.

She doesn't look like a Bullmastiff very much though. She is very stubborn though, which is like the Bullmastiff!

drex27 · 08-15-2009, 07:46 PM

here is a few pics of our new pup ramsey, he is 4 months now. we heard everything from puggle, doxie, dotson,cocker spaniel. we just know he is one of a kind.

Jare · 08-16-2009, 12:24 AM

Wow, everyone has got such cute dogs.
Ramsy's little puppy face is soooo precious!
The sideview of Harleigh remind me of certain angles of my dog =]

On Harleigh I would have guess Great dane X Lab X Sharpei
Damn...I would have only gotten one. Haha.

Heres Nellie, the 100% purebred mutt.
The people we got her from (I've seen both parents, and what they told me is understandable besides the rottie?) They told me shes Lab, Sharpei, Rottie and Pitbull, I can see it all except the rottie...
Her brothers and sisters were all pure black, and had total sharpei squished faces, shes the only one with a long face and golden colored.

Nellers =]

Haha...see sharpei, lots of extra skin.

Laying down.

Nellie and her best buddy Jack. Jack really doesn't look happy...maybe its the bright flash
