Great-looking dog! The pics made my wife coo like she was looking at a cute baby. (Probably even more. She's not as fond of babies as she is of dogs, lol.)

Good looking pup. We haven't decided to replace our last pup yet, but have shop kittens now.

That is a great looking dog...Shepard/husky mix?

Momma is shepherd/husky, the dad uncertain but the vet looking at the entire litter thinks Great Pyrenees is in the mix which would help explain their size.

I'd explain her as a very kind, intelligent dog. Unless she gets really big I do not see Great Pyrenees... Maybe if she likes to protect sheep? but for Great Pyrenees,,, I would expect to be bigger boned... no matter I am not a vet, just a dog lover. Whatever she is a beauty with very kind, Intelligent face. And I have not seen the entire litter.. What did you name her?

Since it's not unheard of for puppies in the same litter to have different fathers, my suspicion is that River's mom was kind of a...um...how to put this nicely?...a tramp. 
Kidding aside, it looks like there are some pretty profound differences between the siblings of that litter. It doesn't matter, though. Mutts make the best dogs, IMO. Rescue mutts even more so.

You beat me to the comment, a female can take multiple males, so you will/can get a mix of pups...... we had a young black and tan hound that Dad wanted to mate with our old dog, also a black and tan... she wouldn't have him at all.... she wound up visiting my uncles place where he had some kind of mutt... she wound up giving birth to one black and 3 black and white pups... not sure that she ever took the old dog, if he approached she would snap at him.

Of all the dogs we have had, only one was a mix breed and old Morgan was probably the best, smartest, cutest, most loved dog we have had. I bought him from the pound for $1 and they threw in two cans of dog food.

What a cute pup. We're taking a bit of a dog break for a while. Will probably look at picking up a rescue of some sort next year. Wanting to kind of downsize from the labs we've usually gotten.
Will probably be looking at some sort of a cattle dog mix for the next one.
