Yellow Lab/Whippet! Those ears are Whippet-ish, and Whippets come in many colorations, and are a much smaller dog than Labs, which would account for his delicate size.

I do not see either Shepherd or Husky in him, especially given his size, but in any case, he sure is a cutie!

around here everyone always tries to mix labs in with everything! Since people really have no consept of SHAPE, and labs can bee three colors, you could say anything looks like a lab mix. Our shelters really are overflowing with SWEET pits

Usually it's acurrate, though, because Labs are SO popular and are bred by BYBs who don't care where there dogs go. So they aren't often neutered and they produce mixed breeds.

that would make sense

lots of dogs are not mix-breeds but mutts meaning they have several different breeds in their ancestry, not just a mix of 2 breeds

anyway, if I had to guess 2 breeds I would probably guess lab x jack
