Default Am I a German Shepherd?

We rescued Lilo about a month ago. We know he is a puppy, but do not know his age. We are not sure what breed. I think he looks like a GSD, however I had couple people ask me if he is a Chow. What do you guys think?

Your welcome!

Lilo is so cute!!!! He probably has got some Shepherd in him. I don't really see any chow though. As he gets older you will probably be able to tell more what he is mixed with.

Thank you for rescuing and welcome to the forum!

Lilo's nose looks like he might be part Shepherd. I am hoping other GSD owners can confirm that.

He is very cute. He could have gsd in him but he looks like he has a lot of some sort of small breed in him. His feet look pretty small and his face looks small.

How old does the vet say he is?

There are a few breeds which have dark muzzles. It's hard to say what he is. There are DNA breed tests and the folks here recommend the ones which use a blood sample taken by the vet.

Either way, what a CUTIE! Enjoy your puppy.
