I know partially what he is, but there's at least one other breed mixed in, perhaps more. He's a dog from up north from here... so the breed is likely to be hardy and cold-tolerant.

What a neat picture.

I'd put my money on a bit of Husky, maybe a splash of Lab, and perhaps a sniff of semi-German Shepherd.

We had a dog something like that once, but smaller. She was a stray, and I later tracked down where she came from. She was literally a mix of at least five breeds. But a super dog nonetheless. We just told people she was a Saturday Night Special.

Thanks Kato Smile

His mother was pure bred chocolate lab and they were fixin' to breed her and had a stud picked out.
A husky mix got into the yard before the mating and voila – my Halo was born.

I have had so, so many people ask if he has wolf in him that was just curious if it was seen in this pic. I have no idea - it's possible because of where he came from (about eight hours north of the TransCanada Highway) but it is probably very unlikely.

But he does have the biggest teeth I have ever seen! LOL.

The first thing I thought was "Husky eyes". Husky dogs tend to look a little wolfy themselves.

He's a neat dog. Very Happy
