I have seen those Chatahoula Cattle Dogs and they are really neat dogs. Sadie doesn't look like a Rottie to me, how big are her paws? Since she is so young, her coloring may change some.
This is Gypsy's first winter with us and she is starting to get her winter coat, lots of very fine, fuzzy fur on her fore and hind legs. Makes her legs look like they are covered with frost, very weird. She is supposed to be a rough-coat collie mix, do you have any idea what the other part could be?
Ack! Met to ping you too, msdrby!
Sadie's litter mates all had the typical catahoula leopard stripes. She was the only one with the rottie markings. You're right though, she really doesn't look like a rottie. She has much longer fur than her siblings do as well. The vet at the shelter said that she will probably only get to about 50 lbs max. Really small for a rottie imo.
