Well, I'm not expert either. But the second one looks like it could be part Doberman or German Shepherd.

It's difficult to tell when they're puppies.

The second does look like a Great Swiss Mountain Dog.

While I agree with you in the sense that it does indeed look like a GSMD, I think something needs to be said.

What are the chances of either of the pups being a purebred rare breed? Or even a mix? Are there any GSMDs that could have been bred, purposely or accidentally? As the saying goes... When you see hoofprints, think horse, not zebra.

I'd say that the second one looks like a mix of Border Collie... maybe a terrier, or a sighthound... it's hard to tell at that age, but I'm pretty sure it looks at least part Collie.

I've never heard that one before, but it's a good one.
