Is my dog an Australian Kelpie mix?

Hello everyone,
I know I made this page now I'm starting a thread on it but I'm curious about others opinions on wether or not Brutus is a Kelpie mix. When we got him , the rescue had him listed as "German Shepard Mix"... the only thing is he is 5 years old and only weighs around 75lbs. The vet suggested German Shepard and Lab but again, he's small and his nose didn't seem to be the correct shape. Some of our friends had mentioned to us possibly Belgian Malinois and Australian Kelpie. When we started looking at pictures on the internet, we realized he looks alot like a Kelpie but he's too large from what we have read so then he would be a mix of some sort. Anyway, doesn't he look like an Australian Kelpie mix??? Or are we way off base?

At 75lbs he is too large to be a Kelpie, but he sure does look like one!! He's very pretty.

He is pretty isn't he! I'm so glad we found him. Too bad he's nutered otherwise we would have some cute mini Brutus' running around. Do you find this valuable?

Brutus is a very handsome dog! My dog is an Australian Kelpie mix, and I must admit she looks a lot like Brutus. She is eight months old, all tan and weighs 40 pounds. I see Kelpie features in Brutus so my opinion is he is a Kelpie Mix.
