The only breed I can think of off-hand that has a blue-black tongue is the Chow Chow and that sort of looks like a Chow puppy. But I won’t swear to it. And I’ve never known them to be multi-toned like that. - Tamerlane ---

Looks to me like a dog that has been dyed. Don’t know the breed though… ---

yeah, i’m not convinced that it is the real color, but i know little about dog breeds, and next to nothing about the little dog breeds. ---

It looks remarkably like a furry Shar-Pei puppy. I think they don’t start off with all the wrinkles. ---

[This page](http://www.geocities.com/cleoshelti/monster.html) claims that is is a bleached Chow Chow dog. And [this](http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/comics12.htm) is a Bichon Frise version. ---

Looks like a chow puppy. It has that round baby-face. They’re darn cute when they are little. ---

One of my dogs is relatively famous … she’s on the [Dogs in Cars](http://mysite.freeserve.com/jezturner/dogsincars/184.html) Web site. She’s has a “parti” white/black coat that is panda-like; relatively rare for her breed (which is rare in itself), but still conforming with AKC standards.
