EM?

I brought Cooper into my life two weeks ago. The breeder that I bought him from said the parents were both EM's. One of my co-workers tends to disagree. From what you can see in the pictures...your opinions? He just turned 10 weeks old and is 21.5lbs

He is very cute, but I dont see any predominantly EM traits. His head looks off with the shape of his muzzle and he lacks any masking. His ears are not showing mastiff traits and his coat length is a bit longer. He may have it in him somewhere tho.

He's big enough to have EM in him but something is off about his head. My guess would be at least 1 parent isn't a full EM. He is very cute though.

I dont see the traditional facial features of an EM, his head would be wider at the top with a little knobby bit at the back between the ears, nose also would be wider, eyes would be farther apart and the lower jawline would be wide and shorter, his feet would be flatter and much bigger. He is a cutie, could be a mixture because of the brindle coloring but his dominant side is definately not em.

I see German Shepherd mix. Wait until he's about a year old and we may be able to see more mastiff traits. He's adorable!

He is really cute. I was going to say some kind of herding dog (pointier nose) but either way looks like a great pup!

I see some sort of shepherd mix in him too. His ears are a Lil pointy versus the big floppy ears of the EM. But either way he is a cutie.

He's a gorgeous boy! he's certainly got the size but I would say Shepherd is mixed in there somewhere. My dog is a lab/shep x and his face is the same shape as hers. I love the brindled longer hair!
