    I would guess lab & coonhound. He's got the lab shape & color & the coonhound shaped face & muzzle. He also has the height of a coonhound. His ear seem a little long or thick or something off for either breed but being a mix that could very well happen.

    When I first looked at him I thought Bloodhound/Golden or Lab but now that I look at him more I can see where others are coming up with Coonhound. He is cute!!

    I used to have a lab/dalmation mix that had the same shape ears/head/snout as your dog does. He looked like pure yellow lab with the exception of a couple hardly noticable darker spots on his fur (on his chest and underbelly). Certainly a lab, maybe a little dalmation in there ?!?

    NO. Labs can have dark mismarks, just look at .sarah's dogs. DalmatiAns have to have a white background, that is a whole other gene.

    Genetically, since he has nonblack whiskers and appears to be 'clear red', his genes are e/e -- it is unlikely that he has a sable parent from any pure breed where all the dogs must have black hairs in their coat including whiskers.

    In order to be an e/e, he has to have parents that are carriers of clear red recessive. This rules out quite a few working breeds that are required to have black pigment in their hair.

    Possible breeds... The lab for example can be an e/e breed (yellow lab) and the bloodhound comes in a clear red according to the breed standard. So possibly there is a lab and a clear red bloodhound parent.

    I'm not familiar with all the strains of working hounds where he may have gotten that ear... and I don't know if any of them come in a clear red. But to research the possibilities, you'd need to narrow the potential breeds to those that carry clear red.

    Depending on what setting the camera is on and the lighting conditions in the room, body parts can appear like this dogs tail. I have a few pictures where Tango's tail looks like that.....

    Anyway, I also think he's a Lab/hound mix. Not sure what type of hound though.
