What breeds of Dog can you see in Cross-breed Benji?

Benji was a Dog that I used to have, but he passed away a few years ago due to Cancer. He was a cross-breed, but I didn't know what breeds he had in him.. as I am contemplating getting a new dog in a few months. What breeds can you see in Benji looking at these photographs? http://good-times.webshots.com/album/569257038daTSdw

beagle, maybe some spaniel cuz he had the spots on his nose and paws, lab thats what i see, but im not that great with breeds
99% sure he was collie beagle cross nice looking dog, m sure he gave u much joy =)
Well the black and white one looks definitely like a Border Collie, but Benji's harder to tell. He definitely looks like a lab is in him, but I'm not sure what else is there. Maybe a Springer Spaniel, Beagle, or something like that with the coloring but the coat is medium length and the ears and the body looks like a lab. A good mutt I'm guessing, which is the best kind. :)
Definitely some sort of hound or beagle in there. Coyote hound maybe? http://www.isabelacreskennel.com/Dogs__2-16-07_010.JPG Or American foxhound? http://www.dog.com/dog-breeds/american-foxhound/ http://www.dogs4home.com/breeds/AmericanFoxhound_.jpg or english foxhound? http://www.dog.com/dog-breeds/english-foxhound/ Or french hound? http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://bp2.blogger.com/_LYxGQn08RU4/SE63-52nxfI/AAAAAAAAAnw/ylPW7KSjvmI/s320/FRENCH%2BWHITE%2BAND%2BORANGE%2BHOUND%2BFran%C3%A7ais%2Bblanc%2Bet%2Borange.bmp&imgrefurl=http://breedsdogs.blogspot.com/2008/06/french-white-and-orange-hound-franais.html&usg=__ICt5IsLgZ2u0d9W38twuwn8EwNY=&h=264&w=320&sz=26&hl=en&start=32&um=1&tbnid=306vOQxQ8yOOBM:&tbnh=97&tbnw=118&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dfrench%2Bhound%26start%3D20%26ndsp%3D20%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26rls%3Dcom.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox%26rlz%3D1I7SUNA%26sa%3DN It seems a little large to be beagle but the markings definitely suggest it. Maybe it has some shepherd in there too, based on its face markings. Or some border colllie http://www.allaroundbordercollies.com/testimonials4/RedDogs.jpg The body shape also hint at some lab possibility. I supplied pictures, so now you can look and see what you think. :)
A friend of mine hunts hounds and I had him look at this pic. He said that he has had a lot of hounds that look just like your Benji. He said that they were all mixed with Saddle back walker hound and pit bull. The thick tail is also a saddle back walker trait. So is the coloring he has. Which also where the spots on the legs come from as well. His shape of his head his pit bull. My friend also said that this mix is usually done on purpose and will be hard to get one. Most hunters do not like to let them go without paying for one. Most of them breed them especially for them to hunt and not to sell them too.
Definitely boxer and labrador probably many others that arent as visible
