new to the boards, opinion on what this breed is?

[carrowfam]

hello, I just got Pokey saturday, they said he was a shih tzu, but I'm not quite sure, he's not as "puffy" as the others I have seen, what's your opinion..

Could be shih tzu/cocker cross. The fluffy might still be coming. My sister's shih/x's hair just keeps growing.

Welcome to the forum and keep those cute pictures coming. We's luvs puppies.

Welcome to the forum ! I can't tell you about his breed , but he is a cutie pie ! Definately more pics needed !

The markings aren't really shih-tzu like, but as for fur, you can't really tell at this age.

Where did you get him from?

[lou3]

looks like some sort of spaniel. Of course its difficult to tell until the pup is a bit older.

welcome to the forums. congrats on your new puppy. not sure what breed it is, but it is adorable, but all puppies are!

Welcome to the forum...the breed, well definately not a pure Shitzu, the nose is too pointed..could be crossed with a Maltese or similar small breed.
The face of a Shitzu is pushed in...pug faced, they normally snort a lot too.

Also as stated, there is not enough color marking for a pure.

If you get a picture of puppy standing, we may get a better idea. Posture says alot.

Ellie is right, that doesn't look like a brachycephalic nose...

You guys are geniouses seriously. I cant even guess what type of breed that is. Almost all pups look the same! But ya, definite cutie
