Dog DNA on NPR - Dovekie, aka Sasquatch

NPR's All Things Considered ran a cute story today about a dog of mystery, a dog that has grown up to be something very different from what the owners originally thought they were getting. Dovekie, named for a seabird with similar colorations, looked quite a bit different from his puppy siblings which means there might have been more than one sire for that litter. In other words, even when you "know" what breed the father is, perhaps you don't.

You can read or listen to the story here. NPR will reveal the DNA test results tomorrow. What do you think?
