A dog puzzle for anyone that is interested.

For my Birthday my good wife bought me a DNA testing kit for Suzie.
She has always been a mystery and the subject always comes up about "what is she?" when we are out so I thought it would be interesting for folks on here to give it a shot and say what they think are the 2 dominant breeds in her.
We are intending to send the samples back on Monday and it is supposed to take about 2 weeks before the results are back.
 
Any takers?

I'm going along with Sherry on this, German Shepherd / Golden Retriever. 😉
I think Sherry is right about the German Shepherd part, but I'm going to say Husky and Yellow Lab, just to be different.:)

Why husky?
That is what I would bet on as well.

I wish I could give a prize for a correct reply but I cannot - sorry.
From what I understand, I will be given a list in order of her most dominant breeds, so I suppose you can name as many breeds as you want to as long as they are in order from the most likely and down.

I'm not a gambling man and I have no real educated guess, but she's gorgeous regardless of what you find out.
Eager to hear the results! :catsurprised:

I don't know anything really about dog breeds and all we are doing is guessing, I am sure you know more than you are letting on JP ;)
Take a guess!

I have the results now and I will post them this evening after I have had a better look at them.
A surprise or 2 ;)
 
If anyone wants to make a last minute guess this is the time to make it.

Yep, I'm voting for a Labrador and Alsatian cross, as was originally suggested by Sherry. 
 
p.s. Yes it had also occured to me that there could be something of  Saluki /LurcherGreyhound type animal present also.
But I'll stick to my main choice, and perhaps traces of Saluki etc. and you can't put all your dogs in one dog basket! 😃
Rottweiler and Chihuahua?
