What breed is my mixed puppy?

[hbutkus5]

This is my 9 week old puppy we got from the shelter, Finnley. They said that he was a terrier mix, and while his face looks like a terrier, he has rather large paws and long legs. Plus, at 9 weeks he already weighs 8 pounds, which is a lot more than a yorkshire terrier which we thought he looked like. The vet said he could be a medium sized dog, and she had seen doodles his size. We were thinking he could be a labradoodle/doodle yorkie mix, but aren't sure. What do you guys think?

He is a terrier mix. Looks like possibly a Schnauzer mix to me. I raised them a long time ago and had some black pups, he looks a lot like the more wire haired ones I had.

I think that he is a cute pup that will become a fairly good sized dog. The only way to tell is to do DNA testing on him.

I have used this before and it was super easy and they send you a bunch of info on the breeds in your email once they determine what breed you have.

Just keep an eye out online and you should be able to get it on sale for less than this link.

definitely the more for sure way of knowing what is all in there. Guessing is just that, guessing.

Judging by his coat, he's probably got some schnauzer and poodle mixed in with the terrier. Give him some time. Once he grows into those legs and feet, you'll get a better idea of what went into his make-up. Regardless, with a face like that, especially with those intelligent, expressive eyes, he's going to be an amazing dog! Enjoy him - and keep the pictures coming so we can watch him grow up, too!
What's his name?

I am 90% sure that his cross is:
Labradoodle/Schnauzer

To be even more exact:
Black Lab x Standard Poodle - Parent 1
Black Wirehaired Standard Schnauzer - Parent 2

He should be a medium sized dog, possibly on the larger side of medium.
He should be Hypoallergenic.

Wow! Thanks to you all! I was going to do one of those 80 dollar dna tests, so I might have to order one. Thanks so much for all of your suggestions! He doesn't seem to be shedding at all so I think he is hypoallergenic. I will for sure be posting more pictures!!!

Do you have a picture of the pups and/or what they look like now?

Wish I did. they are on my old pc that has crashed. I had miniature schnauzers and owned giant schnauzers for several years. The giants were also black. I never owned the standard schnauzers. I like the little more wire haired type, but most want the ones that have all the long soft furnishings that are hard to care for ( I had those too). Definitely good ratters.
