This litter was rescued out of a high kill shelter. They are so cute and social but definately look like they will be bigger. We suspect they are Mastiff/Boxer mixes.

FOSTER UPDATE: Harper is a beautiful reddish tan girl with a thin white blaze and a short tail. She is very friendly with everyone, the first to greet you and happy to give kisses. She gets along with all my other foster pups, my big dogs and little dogs. Harper has a sweetheart personality and just loves hanging out by your side. If she's not playing with her litter mates you can find her napping peacefully on the porch. She sleeps through the night, is great for nail trims and baths and will be easy to train. Harper is going to be a fairly large dog and would do great with an active family. She will do well with regular exercise, an endless supply of chew toys and love!
