This is Dave, the foster said he is most likely a Dutch Shepherd mix. I just wanted someone who knows what to look for opinion. They said he is a finely-built, but sturdy dog. They also took a video of him and his brother, but im not sure if I could post those here.
(Im new so sorry if I mess stuff up)

He may have some DS in there, but I don't think anyone can tell you for sure. The only thing for certain is that he's awfully cute.

Dave...OMG, I can't stand it....How freakin' cute is that? Dave.... :D Made my day.

What a beautiful puppy! If his eyes were amber and he had less white on his feet he would look just like Zorro.

The fact that he's already on the table and under you at the counter speaks volumes to which part of him is a DS.

OH~MY~CUTENESS!!!!
SERIOUS cuteness overload, here!!!
And Ditto what Sharon said...DAVE...could his name be any better???

I think he looks like he could be just as much of a mix as any other of the mixes on this forum. You'll know over time...smarts, body structure, temperament...

And those EARS!!! I'm in puppy love (don't tell Tyson!!!!).
