When we first got Max we said "Shepherd/Rottweiler". But now we're just not sure! We know his mom was a shepherd. What do you think his dad was? Here are lots of pictures.

Here are some more, so you can get a really good idea. He weighs 91 lbs and is extremely friendly and funny, and loves to run (thinks he's a greyhound)! He can jump very high (see the photo with him jumping into the truck - he did that from a sit!). That's why I'm thinking maybe he's not part rottweiler. Somebody said Rottweilers aren't jumpers.
Any ideas? Not that it matters but it's fun to guess.

He looks to me like he has rottie in him as well as shepherd. In this pic especially:

He looks so strong and muscular. He's beautiful :)
I'm not very good at breed guessing when it comes to mixed breeds, but if I had to throw out my opinion........I'd say, hands down, that he looks like a Shepherd/Rottweiler. Actually, [to me] he really resembles Duke. :) Two very good-looking boys! :D
Are you talking about Dukedogsmom's Duke, Moose? Because I thought Duke kind of resembled Max, too. Though Duke looks a little more mellow and maybe a little smaller. Is Duke a Rottenshepherd?
Yep, stacwase...I am. :) The more I look at pictures of them, the more I see a huge resemblance. Especially after seeing one of the younger pictures of Duke. :D
My aunt had a dog when I was a kid named Tonsi. Tonsi looked just like Max. I'll have to ask her. My vote is Shephard-Rot too.
Shepherds are generally 80 pounds and (male) Rottweilers are generally 95-130 pounds. From looking at the pictures and comparing weights, my vote would be Rotti/Shepherd as well.
Not sure, but I had to say I loved Max in the
pic, where he is wearing the purple wings. :)
I think theres a strong chance its Shepherd/Rottie.
Rio's Lab x Rottie and she's is an amazing jumper (get pic's some time)

I was starting to wonder if maybe he was lab/shepherd mix. He just acts a lot like a lab - really friendly, jumps a lot of fences etc. etc.
I tell ya - when I tell people I have a shepherd/rottweiler mix they back off with fear in their eyes! They're like "ooo - that's quite a dog". "He must be vicious". etc, etc. Then when I mention the jumping they say there's no way he's part rottweiler. That's why I was wondering.
One thing I do know - there's not a better dog on earth than Max! No, no - don't even argue with me. I own the world's greatest and most handsome dog!
I think Max is Rotti/Shepherd mix too. I also think he is absolutely gorgeous!:)
Maybe he's a Rott-Lab/Shepherd? :D
He is very handsome,
Rio says that he's her type,lol

We love the pics of your Beautiful Max!!!!!!
He is Stunning!!
Max is blushing. He says "Awww - gee - thanks!"

He is Beautiful!!!
LOL at rottenshepherd! Actually, Duke is Shepherd/Chow. He only weighs 70 pounds. But, I was noticing how much Max looked like him. Max is gorgeous! I'm so happy to see more pics of him. Duke doesn't jump but he is very playful. Also a good guard dog.
