We recently adopted Ellie after she had been abandoned nearby. No microchip and the vet estimates her age around 9 months. It's hard to see in her pics but she does have some brindle markings that show up when the lighting is right. Does she look like a DS or a mix favoring a DS? Either way our kids are loving her!

Re: Any thoughts on Ellie?
Looks like some sort of shepherd mix. Probably not a dutch but nice lookin dog either way. Good job rescuing.
