I adopted a beautiful golden brown dog from a local rescue society. She was described as a shepherd mix, maybe with a labrador (yellow) but in the few days I've had her, I've noticed a few unusual tendencies.....a dark ridge of hair (but not going in the OPPOSITE direction of her fur) down her bgack. A Dark pair of eyes and black nose. Soft ears that perk up but are generally down. She doesn't have big/broad legs and I consider her feet rather tiny. Her most distinctive feature is her tail, which is short. Not docked -- I know the difference, having had Dobes all my life. It's a brown fade to black and is typically tucked. Her tail is not even a foot long. She is sweet, laid back (thus the name) and tolerates the yappy dogs in my community with mostly an appalled look on her face while she hides behind me or tolerates the yappers patiently. She has growled and/or barked little, but only at men. She is 18 months old and was found sitting beside the road as if she was waiting for her people to come get her. If I post a picture or two,could somebody dissect this info and help? I love her no matter WHAT breeds she's representing, but I'm curious. Oh: She also lifts her front left paw and points at birds and loves to chase after the flitting chameleons so in abundance. She's bright, responsive, and still the most laid back dog I've ever had. She takes naps on the aisles of PetSmart!
HOW DO I POST / ATTACH A PICTURE OF JAZZ HERE? If you email me at SpriteFMY@aol.com, I'm happy to send you a picture. I appreciate this site so much! Thanks.
