I.D. This puppy.

This is a puppy rescued from Mississippi. What are your thoughts what kind of dog this is.

Thanks BA... 

Good qustion for a thread ... If you were a Dog, what kind of dog would you be ?

Dave is more like this

or this.

Better not be the cheap stuff in there though...

Hmmm, I'd always envisioned Dave to be more like this:

(BTW, you're adorable, big guy!)

That's dave?

My first thought was miniature pinscher but again it's the ears that that don't make sense.

My money is on Dave.

Does all of this conversation constitute canine profiling?  

Second guess would have been a Doberman, but the head and bodies are not the right proportions. Doberman as a puppy stocky body smaller head to body proportion. B&T larger head to body proportions as a puppy.

The DNA test sounds like a good Idea

DISCOVER!

 Your dog’s breed composition.

 Unique personality traits of your dog.

 Genetic health concerns.

 Predisposition to disease.

It is a simple cheek swab, no blood needed..

Send him your contact  information and phone number

Blood can be FedEx over night  

.. If he was in Colorado I would.. Wife gets a big discount though the Training facility..

Dave ...with all your money you can toss in

for the test...just saying  BA...too small of ears

Where does the black and tan markings come from? Doberman, Rottie? Probably not a rottie you would see it in the face more with size..

ESOX.. you can get a Dog DNA test ($60=>$100). If you have her tested I am 99% sure you will find it is close to 100% Black and Tan..

I am sure your Vet can ID the dog as well, or run a Panel.

DNA Panel

Expensive Panel but works really well
