sorry - not sure why the other fotos didn't post - so here's one of them. I'm new and getting the hang of this.

Ask away! I don't mind a bit. He is so cute! I wish we lived closer so he could play with my girls! Alaskan Malamutes are a breed apart, as I'm sure you've discovered. They're not just regular dogs. They're loyal and loving, don't get me wrong. But if you don't want a dog that is going to logistically try to figure out why you told him to do what you told him to do and why it needs to be done now every single time you say something, it's not the breed for you! They think about everything! And you can just see in their bright little eyes how much they think! I love it, but it can make them so stubborn. Dolly's my easy fur child. And Zoey's my psycho one!! I'm betting your boy will get up in the 80-85 pound range, but with German Shepherd in him maybe, it could vary. German Shepherds can be hyper too sometimes. I don't own one and never have, but I know someone who did. Great guard dog, but a little crazy at times! Oh well, sorry I made that so long! Guess it's just late and I'm just blabbering! Later!
I'm going to stick with my first guess. Alaskan Malamute definitely with German Shepherd. His weight and ears and tail and body reflect a Malamute, but his coloring and eyes look like a German Shepherd. Whatever he is, he's sure a cutie!
Here's a link to a dog that looks similar to Pascua and is a mix of what I said. What do you think?

Just my opinion though!
I think he looks like a siberian husky and german shepherd. He is so gorgeous!
With many of our young "kids" it goes in stages- one week they are hellions, the next week good as gold. Maybe exercising before class will tone it down enough that he will cooperate in class?
Welcome! Congrats on the new pup and new hubby! You'll love it here. Pascua is a darling...Wond er what breed he is... Some of the long haired German Shepherds look similar.Â
I'm Julie and I share my home with my hubby, cat (Tilly) and my not-so-big-paws, Jackie and Charge. Charge is a lab and Jackie is my mutt. They are all wonderful.Â

Welcome to BPO! I'm Melissa, or Mel to most.  I'm Mommy of Dazy, the 1 year old Giant Schnauzer and Ladybug, the 4 year old Mini Schnauzer with the GIANT attitude! lol I also am Mommy to an 8 year old daughter and I have a husband that lurks around here from time to time as well.Â
I think it's pretty common for most larger type dogs to continue to grow until 2 or so years of age. ?? Anyone may correct me if I'm wrong on that though. Best of luck with the new love of your life. (both of them! lol )
My malamute they said should stop growing at 18 months old, and I think they're right. However, my Saint won't stop til she's 2. I definitely think Pascua has mal in him and German Shepherd. He's a cutie, that's for sure!
I saw your avatar of Pascua as a puppy and I had to say Welcome! Pascua is a beautiful dog. THOSE EARS ARE HUMONGOUS!!! Hope you have fun here!!!
