Default Breed guess (Non GSD)

Not sure what this guy is. Guesses welcome.







Pictures can't do him justice - he's got massive bone and appears underweight.

Although he's temporarily in our rescue he's going to another rescue as soon as we can find one for him - he basically showed up on our property Thursday and we have no clue where he came from or if he was dumped or found us himself.

Crud, I think a few are oversized, will check settings and repost.

Looks like he's got some husky/Alaskan Malamute in him. He's cute. Poor guy..

I second that, malamute... They are much heavier boned than huskies. As for the other, not sure maybe even GSD though the muzzles a bit short.


He's gorgeous though, too bad I'm at the legal limit.

he's definitely a unique looking boy isnt he? I see husky in there with the build and tail but I can put my finger on what else I see. His muzzle is not totally right for husky. The solid build reminds me of a malamute.

he looks like he could be a real sweetie.

My bet is on Canadian Eskimo Dog.

Could also be:
Alaskan Husky
Alaskan Malamute
Siberian Husky

Well I'll give you a hint and let you know Mal rescue and Husky rescue are refusing him, but are assisting to find a placement.

what?! Could he have some wolf in there? Are they refusing him because they're full or nervous?

Any chow rescues in the area? He does remind me of Carrie's GSD/chow mix.
