Guest Anonymous Posted June 22, 2003 Share Posted June 22, 2003 Jake is about 75 lbs and looks like a black wolf. Very friendly with people and othe dogs. He and our Black Lab (both males) are inseperable. Your input on type of breed or mix is needed. [url]http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/trfab2003/lst?.dir=/Pets&.view=t[/url] Thanks.

Carolk9s Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 I don't see any Mal in Jake. Where did you get Jake from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanvean Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 I would also guess lab/husky, with the odd eyes and the fluffy tail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bullygirl29532 Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 I see some kind of border collie, or herding type dog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crested Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 Let me help you out... I transferred the pics from the page to here...

I'm no specialist about this, but... He looks like he has atleast lab in him and by the look of his face and ears I would allso guess border collie. I might be really wrong, but thoose are the two breeds that pop into my mind. :) /Crest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted June 24, 2003 Share Posted June 24, 2003 Thanks all. The responses on Jake's possible mix here on Dogomania have been consistent with others on various web sites. Another reason to love the Internet and the folks using it. Crested: I can't see the pics in your post, just red x's. Let me know if there's another link to them. Carolk9s: Jake was a stray who showed up one early morning 2 weeks ago at a neighbor's house found playing with their Yellow Lab (SF Bay Area). He brought the dog over to me because he knew we where looking for a 2nd dog, a playmate for our Black Lab, Max. Jake showed no sign of ever wearing a collar, was in excellent heath, and friendly to people and other dogs. He was exactly what we were looking for in a 2nd dog. He and Max hit it off immediately, as they are now practically inseperable. They play 4-6 hrs a day. Max has never been happier, even though Jake is clearly the Alpha male. We will be bringing Jake in to the vet this week for shots and probable neutering. As for the possible breed mix, all 25-30 responses say a Lab mix, most likely Husky, Aussie, or Border Collie (or multiple combination).

Aroura Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 Huskeys and Border Collies are two breeds they are most likely to have blue eyes, so I'd say Lab crossed with either of them. The best way to tell if he's more likely part husky or border collie is by looking at his temperament, both breeds have very different temprements.

Rosebud Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 :D I would have to say Lab/BC. He has that happy go lucky expression that the BC has, along with the blue eye and the rose ears. Test him and see if he has any interest in herding, he should still have some herding instinct if it's BC mixed in with Lab. :angel: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellieangel Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 I would say Lab/husky :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shannon_C Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 [color=darkred]I see German Shepherd, possible Labrador....so adorable[/color] :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annushka Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 You can find many such dogs on our streets :o Suppose, German Shepherd X Husky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 The dog has no Border Collie in him...unless he shows signs of herding instinct.. (nipping, giving the "eye", highly energetic and intelligent, etc..) I have a Border and have been around a lot of Borders for a long time, and I see absolutely no Border Collie in him.. I don't really see any Husky either.. Just cuz the dog has a blue eye doesn't make him a certain breed. :wink: My guess would be... Hmm...I ALMOST see some possible Rottie in his face structure.. maybe... It's really hard to tell so I'm not really sure what I see... :-? :lol: He could be a black GSD mix... I don't see too much Lab, but it's also a possibility... This is a tough one. :P He's a cute dog!! I love his eyes and ears! :D [img]http://images.snapfish.com/3384%3A88323232%7Ffp47%3Dot%3E2326%3D52%3A%3D%3C83%3Dxroqdf%3E2323436%3A%3A76%3C4ot1lsi[/img] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imported_Debbie Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 Well I think majority rules on him being part Lab ! :D I definitely see Lab, I'm not so sure about what else he is, I'm thinking Border Collie too. And just because a dog is a mix, doesn't mean it's going to show strong tendencies toward both breeds. My Gretchen is a Rott/Lab and she is pure black, she's taller and heavier than a purebred Lab but she has subtle nuances of the Rottweiler..... so subtle you'd really have to be looking for it. She's a lovely dog either way. And so is Jake !! :angel: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted November 16, 2003 Share Posted November 16, 2003 :wink: He's totally cute! :D But I'd have to say he's a shepherd/lab/husky mix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeg Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 Looks Lab/Husky to me. With that blue eye and the ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowlabsrule Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 Nobody's said this yet...I hope that doesn't mean I'm out of my mind :o but does anyone else see a hint of chow, lab, and/or golden? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeg Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 I think there may be a bit of Australian Shepherd...I don't know about the Chow...those eyes make me think something else... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowlabsrule Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 I don't think that the eye color relates to the breed, but I'm not sure. Here's a article (don't have time to read it all right now). [url]http://netpet.batw.net/genetics/dog.i.color.html[/url] [quote]Terrile Schukraft, a Siberian Huskey breeder who is active in Siberian rescue, would like to add: All blue-eyed dogs do not necessarily have Siberian husky blood in them, although many veterinarians and shelter personnel will identify blue-eyed mixed breeds as Siberian crosses. There are several other breeds that may have blue or split eyes - Dalmatians, collies, Shetland sheepdogs, harlequin Great Danes, Australian shepherds and Australian cattle dogs are examples that come to mind.

Deeg Posted December 20, 2003 Share Posted December 20, 2003 That's why I thought maybe Australian Shepherd. My cousin has an Australian Shepherd/Labrador mix with 2 blue eyes and she looks alot like the dog we are talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imported_danielle Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 There could also be Kelpie in him...... there are a lot of working Kelpies in Australia that look like that!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
