What Breed is My Dog?

Anyone know what breed of dog I have? I thought she was pure German Shepard but she's too small. Any thoughts of what she could be mixed with?

She looks just like my Norwegian Elkhounds! There are 2 sizes of Norgies, 12" and 18". They get to be 60-80 pounds. They have pointed, upright ears, a curled tail, and thick fur. They're a light grayish tan with black markings and lighter belly fur. They were bred to hunt moose. The dog would track the moose and corner it, then "worry the moose" by darting in and out at it's feet until the hunter could catch up. Mine loved to play games where you stomp your feet at them.

I am new here and when I saw this pic I just had to post! I would almost bet that she is Akita. I had one when I was a teenager and just loved him!! Beautiful puppy! Your blessed to have such a wonderful animal!

She is beautiful! Looks full blooded to me, she's going to change so much in size before she's through growing.

She may be a Belgian Malinois. Or just a puppy German Shepherd. She's so pretty!

She looks purebred to me. Her looks will change so much until the time she's grown. And she is gorgeous! You don't think they'll ever grow into their ears, but they do! :) I just love shepards.

You don't say whether or not she is a puppy. If not, maybe she's just a smaller-type Shepherd. From what I can see, she appears to be purebred.
