What do you think Lucy is?

What do you think Lucy is?Honestly,i really dont know.She definently has spaniel in her,but i dont know what else.The rescue said a springer/lab mix? :confused: She's not close to being the size of a lab.She may have border collie in her?

She kind of reminds me of a Chow in appearance in a lot of her pictures, whatever she is she's very pretty!

I would say Lab x Chow. Take a look at my Granddad and Nana's female Golden Retriever x Chow, Chelsea:

I know I have a side body shot of her somewhere. I'll search for it and post it later.

I think she is Chow/English Springer Spaniel/Labrador Retriever. I see a little bit of each breed in her.

Cute!

Oh - you were looking for a breed? ;)

She looks like maybe Flat-coated Retriever and something smaller/stockier - her ears particularly look like FCR fur texture to me!

I vote chow as well
I've always thought chow when you post her pics
Her temperment resembles a chows too

Theres a lady who works with a rescue that my mom sees on her walks,and she thinks Lucy has flat coated retriever in her.IMO,i think she's a bit small.I agree,i think she has chow in her.She's starting to look more like one as she gets older.She looks like Spaniel too.So i agree with you all.

And thanks for the compliments! :)

Rottweiler/Flat-Coated Retriever or Chow/something smaller, like a spaniel maybe? But I do really see Rottie in her beautiful face.. :)

Lucy's face is alot like George, Snowy's friend who is a labrador. But as you said she is not a labrador size, but a spaniel size wo they are probably correct that she is Labrador x Springer Spaniel.

by the way this Snowy and George. No face of George I'm afraid but can you see the similarity of Lucy and George's coat?

Her head in most of her dogster pictures looks like a Rottweiler.

I see quite a few breeds in her, chow, flat coated retriever, spaniel, lab, rott.
She sure is a pretty girl!

thankyou!
IMO,i really think she's too small to have rottweiler in her.i just dont see it in her.Kodie has rottweiler in him and much larger than she is,but he's mixed with another large breed.
how about staffordshire bull terrier?mabye..mabye not.Some facial expressions she does reminds me of one alot.

I don't see Rottie either. I *really* think she has Chow in her, even if it's only 1/4 or so. Like I said before, I see Lab/Chow/Spaniel

I definitely see chow in her, I've always thought she looked part chow. Chows are not that big of dogs, that's probably where she got her size from.

I could also see some sort of spaniel or retriever...I don't see rottie or pit bull, I think the blocky face is from chow heritage. Whatever she is, she's very cute. :)
