What breed of dog is this2007-11-25 2:51:12

I saw a dog today that I've never seen before. It had the face and spots of a dalmation (it had a medium grey coat with black spots) the body of a greyhound (thin and sleek), and the size of a small great dane. At first I thought it was a mixed breed, but I discribed it to a friend, who said she was pretty sure it was an actual breed because she had a conversation with a man who owned a similar dog while they waited in line at a rabies clinic. However, she couldn't remember the name of the breed. Does anyone know of this particular breed, if it is a breed, and what it's name might be?

Answers:

It could have been Great Dane. They can have a spotted coat. I think that color pattern is called harlequin.

maybe a saluki.

---

Could have been a designer breed.

are you sure it wasn't a greyhound or possibly a whippit

---

yeah, it's either a whippet or a saluki.

Wow you know, the body doesn't sound like anything I've heard of, but I do know that I've seen australian cattle dogs that look like they have black spots.

German Shorthaired Pointer?

---

It probably was a whippet which looks like a small Grey hound

---

sounds like a whippet

Without seeing a picture of the dog it is difficult to guess what it might be, but could it have possibly been a Catahoula Leopard Dog?

If they said It looks like a horse then it probably had Great Dane in it. Good luck.
