What breed is Shaggy?

[animal_rescue]

Just wondering if anyone would know what breed Shaggy is? We were told he was a purebred Rottweiler(we hadn't seen him until my dad went to pick him up) It's so obvious that it isn't true!! So I'm guessing sheperd x rottie does anyone else think he could have something else in him? After staring at him for awhile I thought maybe golden retriever but I'm not sure!

[luvofallhorses]

He definately looks like a german shepherd maybe with a hint of rottie but definitely not a golden retriever. He's a cutie that's for sure

Thats what i was going to say too.
either German Shepherd/Rottweiler

or German Shepher/Doberman.

whatever he is.. he sure is handsome!
i love the black marking going across his forhead.
kinda looks like has a bandana on.

I've seen quite a few pure GSDs that look like him so maybe he's not a mix at all....It's hard to say for sure though.

Thats what I was thinking too. I can hardly see any Rottie in him at all... maybe its just me?

there is defenilty no golden in him but there is for sure german shepard and maybe rottie

[animal_rescue]

Yes, I know sheperd is in him, maybe he is a rottie or dobie mix.

Just wondering, if he were a rottie mix wouldn't he have more of a build on him?

I'll try and get more full body pics of him tomorrow, but I definitely don't think that he is a purebred german sheperd.

I did a seach on Dogster for German Shepherd/Doberman mixes.. and they look a LOT like your Shaggy boy.

They do especially the first one, Storm.

He looks alot like a GSD to me. He could be a mix, but not alot. One of my husband's friends have a GSD and he looks alot like Shaggy.

I think these dogs look like Shaggy, but they're different mixes!

Heres a shepherd/golden named Shaggy!

He could have the build of a Shepherd but characteristics of a rott.

[Pit Chick]

I don't think he's mixed either. He's probably purebred, but poorly bred. That list of dogs Vette posted look more like Heeler mixes to me.

Can you take some other shots from a few steps away? Try to get a good front shot and a side shot of him stacked.

[lizbud]

Really need more full body shots of him, but I'd say GSD mix
with Collie maybe. Good looking pupper.

[Lexi_Lover]

I thought a bit of collie too! But, wasn't too sure. Where's Jordan when you need her?

[lute]

i see shepherd/rottie or shepherd/dobie.

whatever he is, he's really handsome!
