Is this a Dudley or a lab at all?

    [​IMG] Some time ago I adopted her from the shelter. I guess seeing Dudley labradors makes me think she might be a purebred but I am not sure. Most people who have experience with the breed agree that she looks like a dudley, others say she’s a mutt. As far as I’m aware of dog genetics I think it’s very rare for a mutt to have this type of pigmentation¿
    In our region the most common breeds are shepherds and huskies, and the dogs of unidentified breeds are mostly dark coloured. So I am curious to read your opinions, please feel free to post your thoughts!

    She's 100% Beautiful!

    The only way of knowing her breeding is to have dna testing done, but as the owner of a 'mutt' (my gorgeous Molly in the photo) I wouldn't bother, just enjoy your dog for who they are.

    She certainly looks like a Dudley Lab to me.

    Lab mix? Dna is the only way to get an answer
