Silver Lab!
I attended a massage therapy class for canines this past weekend. I had and have dogs with back problems, knee displacement, elbow and hip ailments. I thought the class was well taught and I learned a few new methods of massage. Among the verity of attending dogs was a "Silver Lab!"
I asked just what makes it a Silver Lab, to my knowledge there is no such thing. The owner explained that it is a cross between a Weimaraner and a Lab. In other words a mutt, I was quickly corrected and told this breeding was done on purpose!
I found the dog to be rather ugly, the tail wasn't docked like a Weimaraner and it looked very odd. The coat wasn't short and flat, but rather fringed on the chest. The dog had yellow eyes, was gray in color both Weimaraner traits. It was about the hight of a Weimaraner.
Strange looking beast, and it's temperament was that of a shy, easily frightened dog.
I was also amazed to find out that the owner paid an outrageous amount of money for this animal. $1000!
I don't know, but the more I see happening in the dog world the more displeased I'm becoming....
