OK... What Breed is BOB?

[lv4dogs]

What a cutie!

I can't believe it but I do see some PBGV, they are a pretty rare breed so it is unlikely he is mixed with a PBGV but you never know.

His colors indicate that he has a breed with some ticking, like a cattle dog, pointer, setter, etc... Cockers do have some ticking but it's limited to their muzzles & feet (usually on a well bred one anyways).
He also has the tri colors and spots which are commonly seen in hound dogs, like beagles.
his feet look almost like a medium-ish sized dog... possibly a beagle?

It is hard to tell breeds in mixed puppies, as they age you can usually get a better guess.

Thanks, I agree with you all. And yes, it is so very hard to identify a mixed breed puppy, especially when they have so many different and interesting characteristics. It is interesting that someone mentioned Beagle, cause I never thought so, but when Bob got his first bath... I thought, "Oh my goodness", he looks just like a Beagle. Especially when he is soaking wet... when the rinse water is first poured over him (before his hairs have a chance to pop back up). It also surprising how little and skinny he is. When dry, he is all fluffy and even looks a little stout. But when he's wet, there's hardly anything to him. He only weighs 8.5 lbs at 9 weeks. Oh well, he's Bob! Here are some more photos - first one dry, 2nd wet and the 3rd a tad lathered up. Thanks agin,
Dan

I have no idea what breed he is but he is absolutely adorable! I also wanted to welcome a fellow Pittsburgher to Pet Talk

Oh, Dan, Bob is one of the most adorable pups I have ever seen. Here is a picture of Taggert when we first got him. Except for the coloring they could be brothers.




However, I am not sure they will look as close as they grow older.

Whatever Bob is, he is very, very cute!

I have no idea what breeds is in him. I just wanted say he is one of the cutest puppies I've seen in a long time!

He kinda looks like he might have some kind of terrier in him. But maybe that is just me.

Hi 4 DOG MOTHER,

Sorry I called you William the other day... I am thinking now that William is not your name , but rather the fella who uttered the quote you display at the end of your posts. Am I right... Uh duh, and maybe a little slow. Taggert sure does look like he could be Bobs brother. That was why I first asked you about him... cause even now he put me in mind of Bob. I guess I will have to just watch Bob as he grows and see what he develops into. I will keep you posted and send/post occasional updated photos of Bob!

Thanks for sharing, Dan
