What Breed Is My Dog?

I rescued my dog and have no idea what breed he is. We were told several different breed mixes, but I can't truly figure this out. Can anyone help me? closeup of face

I raised Boxers in the US forty+ years and also did a lot of breed rescue including mixes - your dog looks like a Boxer-Lab mix to me, one parent being a fawn coloured Boxer and the other one of the lighter Labs. Do an image search using the term 'Boxer-Lab mix' and you'll see what I mean.

However your dog also looks a bit like a Vizsla mix (Boxer-Vizsla or Lab-Vizsla), so run that image search as well.

Gorgeous dog, and you're wise to try to determine breed type because all three breeds I've mentioned require some breed understanding to ensure happy dog and people.

For example, a Boxer (even a mix) doesn't fully mature until aged three or so - puppy behaviours in a two year old dog can be frustrating and upsetting to people around the dog if they've no understanding of the breed characteristics.

There are breed-specific characteristics for Labs and Vizsla dogs that be a problem for people as well, so knowing what sort of things to expect can make the difference between a successful rehoming and one that ends badly for dog and family.

Well done you for trying to find out all you can on that truly beautiful dog!
