what do you think I am?

I've got my guesses - but let's hear yours!

Girl is about 8 years old - and was abandoned at a school in Tampa... they held her for her stray time, and we've taken her from there. She's a sweet girl - loves to walk, and is a bit tubby. Not too thrilled with other dogs - so it seems - but it's all through the cage, so it might just be barrier frustration - she hates going in...

I know you didn't ask this, but this is interesting to me. I notice she's losing the fur on her nose like Willow did when she was on Prednisone. Do they know why??

If she had any purple at all on her tongue, the eye color/shape and legs might suggest some chow in there. Then again everything is a chow to me, LOL!!

I just met her for the first time today - first day back! But - I think it's from being in the kennels at the Tampa animal control. The hair is growing back - in the middle sorta (hard to explain). Prednisone is interesting though... she's kinda chubby too - hope there's no bid underlying medical issue! I wish people wouldn't dump their animals.....UGH.

Chow is definately a thought - no purple on the tounge at all though. But she does have a very thick shepherd/chow type coat. The volunteers broke out the furminator on her - said they got a few new dogs off her!

Now that I'm thinking about it I did sit for a shepard/lab mix that had a very similar look and coat to her. Her face reminds me of Willow though. The chow has a certain color brown eye that is usually easy to pick out.

Chow/Lab?

That was my first thought. I think I see some GSD, too.
