What do you think Blake is? I suspect lab//dalmation. He is all black with white paws (kind of spotted) and small white area on chest, slight build with thin tail and short hair, about 1 year old. I have never had an obedient dog and was not a fan of black labs, too slobbery and that wagging tail and jumping all over (not really a Dog person) until Blake who a friend found and spent weeks trying to find owner. Blake is the most well mannered, intelligent sweet dog I have ever known. Very calm, never barks, never has had accident in house. Does not jump up except when playing, and then barely. Obeys sit, lie down, stay, come here ECT. I keep him on leash when walking. Does not jump on furniture and immediately found a place to lie down and stays there most of day. My 16 year old son said his previous owner must have been a Zen monk since he is so calm. I love this dog and would really like to know what his bloodline is?I am very lucky to have this wonderful dog.
