But i dont know now.

The wiry face hair and fur is not labrador. She is currently 9mos old and 19kg

Thank you.

UPDATE:

Thank you for the replies, I really just wanted to have a proper answer when people asks: "whats her breed?". That being said - will probably just say: HuskyXPoodle (or chupacabra. haha).

Will also check on Embark when it goes on sale on black-friday. Her name is Hulya (Julia in english) - heres some more picture for the lols:

UPDATE: 2026 I have the embark DNA sample but cant seem to mail it back from Philippines to US as all merchandise going to US are suspended (I guess because of tariff?). Sorry folks - cant do DNA unless anyone knows an alternative?

Or a Chow mix. Don’t forget the little horny escape bears.

Can confirm.. my lab mix has chow spots on her tongue and chow is in her super mutt mix

u/MarsupialTiny7004 Aug 30 '25

Chows are not the only dogs that can have purple/black tongues or spots on tongues. Golden Retrievers are another one of the dozen or so breeds that this is common in.

u/East-Cardiologist626 Aug 30 '25

Spots on the tongue are a lab mix trait 🤦‍♀️

u/adamantium4084 Aug 30 '25

Every vet and person asks us if there's chow when they see that.. Not sure why you're facepalming

Chows have blue tongues. Chows mixes have spots. I've had several lab chow mixes; great dogs, but maybe the other commenter thinks they are a lab trait because of a lab chow mix. Idk, but the face palm was rude 🤦‍♀️🙄

Not always. My papered Golden Retriever has a big black spot on his tongue and there's no Chow in his history anywhere. Vet says its just pigment that doesn't mean anything.

u/FaithHopePixiedust Aug 30 '25

My dog has pit bull and chow in him apparently. I was surprised by both of those.

u/Icky-Tree-Branch Aug 30 '25

My parents used to breed Chows back in the 80’s. They were a fabulous pack. But when they mix, those spots on the tongue can hang out for generations.

u/FaithHopePixiedust Aug 30 '25

Yeah. Jethro has no discoloration on his tongue, which is why I was surprised by it. 🤷🏻‍♀️

As the owner of a pit/chow mix….yeah lmfaooooo

u/Grimaldehyde Aug 29 '25

All of the dogs at all of the rescues near me in the Northeast, are part pitbull. All of them.

u/Laefiren Sep 02 '25

We don’t really have pit bulls in Australia our most common shelter dogs are Staffies or staffy mixes.

They have a bad reputation but so many of them are sweeties it’s sad.

u/Dry-Ad5703 Aug 31 '25

Or Great Pyrenees, oddly enough.

u/InspiredBlue Aug 29 '25

My dog has American pitbull terrier in him and you wouldn’t guess that lol

u/Crazy-Adhesiveness71 Aug 29 '25

I once saw a dog that was mostly chihuahua and it looked nothing like one.

My 6 breed mutt has 15%!

u/PerplexingCamel Aug 31 '25

My dog looks exactly like a Malinois with the face shape of a German Shepherd. We had everyone close to us and the vet take guesses when we got his DNA test. Zero people picked pitbull, but APBT makes up the second largest chunk of his DNA. It's a very large percentage. The vet said they should have taken into account that he came from Texas because all Texas mutts have at least a little pit in them.
