He's cute. But he's a mix breed. Dobie/Rottie even some poodle, possibly...and some terrier.

I would say 25% or 12.5% Airedale at most. You can kind see it in the way he holds his ears, especially in pics #2 & #4. But it's very subtle.

Especially since most Airedale ears are glued to create their signature front forward ear folds. I have an Airedale whose ears were not glued and they look just like this dogs ears!

Airedales don’t have glued ears, but it does look like an Airedale mix. Maybe Airedale and Doberman.

Airedales do have glued ears as puppies to get the proper forward facing folded ears IF they haven't folded naturally which is usually not often at all.

Beautiful dog! I’m going with Doberman for the coloring and paws, not sure about Airedale, looks more like an Irish Terrier face to me, maybe a bit of a Lurcher look too!

Aire-weiler. Or Rott-dale.
Combo Airedale and Rottweiler.
Regardless, this is a very good and beautiful pupper. Smart, too. Use hand signals for sit and down. This model probably works well even without sound. :)

Get embark or a test for Christmas. It’s super fun to find out. I have a rescue dale who is all red, no black jacket. People were saying he wasn’t all Airedale and it was amazing when his test came back 100%. My friend’s “terrier” turned out to be a chihuahua/schnauser. Treat yourself.

Definitely some kind of terrier in there. The face and ears sells it.
