    Border collie crossed with what?

    Okay, so I'm not quite sure of my dog's breed. The papers from the Humane Society that I got her from said that she is a border collie/lab mix but the papers from the shelter that she was originally at says that she's a border collie/shepherd mix.

    I do see a lot of similarities between her and other border collie/labs except that she has pointed ears rather than floppy. I noticed in some pictures that I've found that border collie/shepherd mixes have pointed ears. Most of them I see don't look much like her at all but I did find some pictures on Google that look just like her and they were labelled as border collie/shepherds.

    These two look just like her:

    I feel like she'll possibly look like either of these when she's older?:

    So, I'd like to get some second opinions.

    Border collie and lab or border collie and shepherd (although not sure as to what kind of shepherd)?

    She is roughly 5 months old.

    One tip of her ears is slightly still down but it's been mostly standing up today so I think it'll follow the other one and stay up soon.

    Perhaps all three border collie x lab x GSD, whatever the truth you have a very lovely looking dog there.

    Can definitely see German Shepherd in her head and face. Very pretty!

    I would say Border Collie x GSD. I don't see any Lab there. I think many rescues seem to think everything is crossed with a lab.

    Whatever she is she is beautiful.

    I hopeless at guessing crosses, but my first thoughts were Border Collie x German Shepherd or even perhaps Malinois.

    Whatever she is, she's lovely, bless her xx

    Thanks for the replies. I'm definitely starting to notice some German Shepherd especially her ears and head shape.
