So I was talking to a friend the other day and I was commenting on how Sam doesn't look like an adult lab although he's past his 1st birthday. I say he just looks like a puppy still like he hasn't grown into his ears or something. Then we got to talking about how he has a much thinner face than is lab normal.
He asked me if was mixed with anything and I said that the rescue we got him from had classified him as a Lab mix because he had a bit of white on his chest/neck and an itty bitty bit between a toe. We all know that black labs can get some white on them. I mentioned that to the vet at his first puppy checkup and she replied "If he's anything other than lab it sure isn't showing through!"
Well we kept looking at pictures of Sam and my friend says "You know I wonder if he doesn't have some greyhound in him somewhere." Hmm...
So I keep thinking and keep looking and then I remembered a friend in the UK had sent me a picture of his Weimaraner and I had commented when I saw the pic "Well that looks like a skinny lab!" Of course I can't find the picture now that I'm trying too, so I googled images the breed and found this picture.
So I run outside with Sam and try to get him in a similar pose...
And this one I had to throw in just because he looks hilarious in it!
So what do you guys think? Could he have some in there? Possibly his Mum or Dad is a Weimaraner? I noticed the white spots in the same place on his as in the breed.
Just a curiousity I've had since he didn't grow into a labby face.
