Three posts ago, I wrote about my new dog, Lucy, and showed pics. The vet said she was a lab/hound mix. I’m trying to figure out the hound breed. From looking online, she resembles both a mtn cur and a plott hound. Can you google this and tell me what you think because I can’t stop obsessing over it.
SOB with me

She’s a beautiful girl. I inherited a mutt who looked a bit like a chow, a Shepard, a ridgeback, etc. I did genetic testing (I know, it’s crazy, but I’m obsessed with dog training and wanted to know his genetic traits) and it turns out he is more lab retriever and German short-haired pointer than anything else.
So, my answer is who knows? Sorry, I can’t help your obsession. 🙂

That’s the thing. I’ve thought about dna kits but from what I’ve read they are designed to check dna against the most popular dogs so a plott might not even be in their scope. With that in mind, I’m just going to play the guessing game on my own (and happily so) until I come up with a combination that just “works.” My vet told me this was a good idea. 🙂
