Sorry for this kind of post...it's a curiosity thing...but I know some members are great identifying possible breeds in a mix. Only picture I have is this one so far. Shelter said GSD-mix, but I'm not seeing it, at least from this photo or at his age. He reminds me of something, just can't think what.

He was from a big (80+) puppy abandonment in Tennessee. Maybe someone has heard about that???
Though I can only hope to become the person who my animals believe I am, the things that they have taught me have made me a better human being. ~~~Sharon~~~

Rottie...yeah...that came to me, too, eventually. And now that it's mentioned, I "can see" husky. He's roughly 12 weeks. It'll be interesting to see how he grows. I've heard he's quick learner and LOVES kids.

This apparently is an adopt blitz, too. A friend of mine in Ohio who wouldn't keep a stray kitten last year because she already had a dog and enough cats took in this little guy two days ago. (And she's a cat person. The story snagged her heart. Sap. :D )
