Rubb.

LOL, six guesses so far.
I’ll be good and give the first clue.
She was born as an American National, not an American Citizen.
 
LOL 7 guesses. She is not European, but the German Shepard was bred from her ancestors a long time ago.
That was clue number 2

I was being factitious actually....

Don't have a clue, been 45+ yrs since I had a dog and that was a Border Collie.
 
8 guesses, getting slightly warmer.

Well wife would not let me go riding today and she made me finish the pergola I have been working on for a year. Must admit it is pretty dam nice in the back yard now. Took Dakota to Munden Point park on the intercoastal water way. One of my favorite places and some ashes from all of our past dogs spread here in the waters.

I think this thread has died, so I’ll spill the beans about Juliette.

My wife took her away from a litter of puppies, from a mother who was a dog running wild with no owners in the Village of American Samoa. She had an infection, so at two weeks old after being cleaned up, the mother would not accept her back. So we bottle fed her and raised her from two weeks old. Anyone from American Samoa will recognize her immediately. There are a lot of Village dogs just running wild.

We thought she was a mutt, with some Golden Retriever and some Pitbull in her.

Then Wifey sent her DNA away with just a swab and her name, no other information. This is what came back:

American Village Dog, 84% of her DNA dates back more than 2,000 years ago, as wild dogs who gathered with humans around camp fires in Asia. They later migrated to other parts of the world including, American possessions, such as Guam, Porto Rico and American Samoa.

Over the years, from her ancestors, the following dogs were bred:

German Shepard, Rottweiler, Doberman Pincher and the American Pitbull.

Listed as an aggressive dog, which is pretty accurate, besides having the UPS man pinned against my front door for almost an hour, she almost managed to get me into court.
 
I would have never guessed what breed of dog she is...pretty cool to have a direct descendant of the original-kind of like owning the gen 2 Busa...
