What am I??

Hey everyone... This is Charlie.... he is just over a year old... and the dog of a good friend of mine. She found Charlie in the stairwell of an apartment building just after christmas 2003. He was hungry, scared, alone and cold. She fell in love at first site... and we figured he was a suprise gift for someone in the apartment... and they didnt like suprises... Poor Charlie..

Any ideas on his breeding??? We know he is a mixed breed.. but curious on what breeds? Thanks

Definitely has the collie "eyebrow" and the ears. It could just be a Smooth Collie. My friend's mom got one from a rescue and she thought is was a shep-collie mix or a lab-collie mix but there just aren't the shepherd or lab personality traits in him...

CollieXLab? CollieXShepherd? I certainly see the "Collie Eyebrow" Prin was talking about. The ears are not Shepherd or Lab, so I'm thinking Collie as well. He's very cute, though (but you might want to tell your friend he needs his nails trimmed ). Kudos for your buddy for taking him in.
