Mutt for sure...just always thought we were more of Scottish mutts...the switch to French - Scandanavian mutt is a new core thought.

Stealing my own thread I am for some reason reminded of a neighbor's dog back in Alabama. Was a cross between a German Shepard and a Bassett hound.

Had a German Shephard head, body, tail, and markings but Bassett legs.

Looked like an alligator when it walked.

Genetics can be surprising

but then genetics breed tartans.
