I did a DNA test on Patsy. I know, I'm dog obsessed. So she turned out to be a mix of two dogs that I never would have guessed. She is a Pomeranian, West Highland White Terrier cross. I had no idea that brindle is an accepted color of the Pomeranian. Now that I see a picture of the brindle colored Pomeranian, I see the resemblance. My major concern is that both dogs tend to be big time barkers. The Westie was bred to have a loud bark so that if it got stuck in a hole hunting, you could hear it barking. Also, the Pomeranian can be difficult to house train. Eeeeek! Looks like I have my hands full with Patsy. But otherwise, she is a great little dog!
