    He's cute--I'd have to say lab and shepherd mix or either dalmatian and shepherd mix..

    I think he looks like an ACD/Pittie mix. His body shape looks very much ACD and Pittie put together, and his ticking could come from the ACD side.

    I personally see no dalmation in him at all.

    Was that just a guess or did they have the parents?

    just a guess. His history is mostly unknown. They only had a range for age (6-8 months)

    American Bulldog X german shepherd X labrador

    Is that really his body? He doesn't look like his body fits. Honestly, his back end and topline screams german shepherd, but his front end says labrador, and his color could be am bulldog.

    You know, I don't know why this never dawned on me before, but his markings remind me a lot of an English Setter. Perhaps ES/Lab and ACD? His tail and face scream Lab/ACD to me, and it just now occurred to me that maybe his particular markings come from an ES rather than a Dal.

    Mixes are odd Look at Ivy. Dobie/Lab at a petite 45 pounds

    OoOoOo... he could be part ES! I'm not positive, but I think long hair is recessive, which could explain the smooth coat.

    I always thought he was ACD x Lab. My friend has a Border Collie x ACD with the same ticking pattern, just with a few more black patches. His body type and ear-set seem to be right in between an ACD (stocky, prick-eared) and a Lab (lean, drop-eared).

    I don't see any english setter, but that could be just me. The ticking just doesn't look like most setters would have, or the body stucture, unless he's mixed with a stocky dog.

    We get a dog in at my dog kennel that looks just like him. I sometime even catch myself calling him Nino. He will be coming into the kennel soon, I will take some pictures for you.
    Thanks so much Ashley for the siggy!
