About unnatural base coats
I have been seeing more and more unnatural base coats around. Is it possible that they are becoming common? Previously very rare, not possible to exist on a GD, until now. They are not really common, but have become from very rare to uncommon. Why is this? No one knows why these colors are popping up suddenly.
After a couple months of being in the mountains, watching a small, wild pack of GDs. They have come to trust me and other humans and now are ready to be adopted. But they are a unnatural base colored, making them uncommon/rare. I am now back from the mountains with the GDs, and more GDs will be back up for adoption soon
Female GD with male fluff?
A female GD with male fluff was recently discovered by kat754. Confused how this could be possible, I decided to do some research.
It turns out that over 50 years ago, a female GD with male fluff was discovered in the mountains nursing a single pup. The mother and pup were studied, but nothing was found about why the female had male fluff. They were then released back into the wild.
So this means, after 50 years, the GD kat754 discover is only the second GD with male fluff! I will be doing more research.
GDs with unnatural base colors?
Four GDs with unnatural base colors have been discovered by kat753, one being the female with male fluff. I decided to go through some boxes of papers about GDs I found in my closet to look to see if any unnatural based GDs have ever been recorder.
It turns out that GDs with unnatural base colors were common... 100 years ago! I read through records that smelled musty, and as time passed, the records said natural base colors took over and unnatural colors died out until there weren't any anymore. Except one group of GDs high in the mountains.
This group was kept track of until they appeared to vanish. These four unnatural based female GDs are most likely the only Unnatural based GDs in the world!
Catahoula Leopard Dog + Gingersnap Dog?
I had taken Almond on a walk in the woods, when she suddenly charged off into the trees. Not wanting for her to get lost, I charged after her.
Well, first things first, let me just say Almond is quite a bit faster then me! I finally caught up to her to find her sinking into quick sand. Trying not to step in the sand myself, I grabbed her paw and began to pull her out.
With a thud, we toppled onto the ground, Almond soaking wet and covered in sand, just then, I realized she had something in her mouth. She dropped it on the ground, panting and I picked it up. It was a pup!
The pup looked like a mix of a Catahoula Leopard Dog and a Gingersnap Dog. But that was impossible! GDs only mated with their own kind... or so I thought. Just then, a female Catahoula Leopard Dog padded over, a brown and light brown male GD right behind her.
I put the pup down and the Catahoula Leopard Dog picked it up. It was true! It was a Catahoula Leopard Dog and Gingersnap Dog mix! The two dogs followed me and Almond as we headed out of the woods, and followed us all the way home.
The GD and Catahoula Leopard Dog will not be placed up got adoption, but the pup was placed up for adoption and was adopted by Charchar2. I have written about this mix and added it to the box of records I found in my closet.
Skeleton GD and sharp toothed GD
I recently read a musty file about a skeleton GD, well, a GD with skeleton markings, anyway. I went to the woods with my six GDs, and we found two GDs. One was a female, and had skeleton, or bone, markings. She is white with the bones being tan. One of her back legs had a real bone tied to it, and her paw on the same leg was made of metal.
She wasn't alone, and was with a male GD with scarred, tattered ears, and long, sharp teeth. It was licking on of it's front paws. They didn't appear to be mates, however, and when I started to approach the two GDs carefully, they were quite tame!
In fact, the sharp toothed GD held out his paw as if so I could shake it. But then I realized the paw looked a little swollen, so then I picked up his paw and looked at the bottom. One of his paw pads had a big cut in it, and looked infected.
The two GDs are now at home with me and will be placed for adoption shortly. I put the sharp toothed GD on medication and bandaged his paw, and it is healing nicely. Until they are put for adoption, I will be keeping you all updated.
Skeleton GD and sharp toothed GD update
The sharp toothed GD's paw is doing much better! It's still cut, but it's not as swollen anymore and he's putting a little wait on it. He has been adopted by kat754! However, his bandage will be needed to be kept on until a few days after he stops limping.
I've looked over the skeleton GD's metal paw, and it is quite interesting. When she puts her paw down, it makes a little clanking noise, like there are small gears inside the metal. I can't figure out why she has a metal paw, was her paw injured and someone made her the paw? I hope to find out. Also, she appears quite protective of the bone tied to he leg. When I tried to touch it, she growled. Other then that, she is very friendly.

Training you're GD?
Like normal dogs, GDs need training. You should make sure to teach you're GDs basic commands, such as come, track, sit, and down. Having trouble training you're GD? I know how you feel. My own female, Almond, has not been able to learn the command "come" and has the unfortunate habit of suddenly running off at full speed.
My male, Caesar, though trained in tracking, agility, and knows all of the commands, is a major escape artist, unlatching the gate door and then roams through the town, chasing rabbits and squirrels.
And a few days ago, I saw a female GD pulling hard on it's leash, dragging it's owner down the street. I remembered that GDs used to and sometimes still do pull sleds alongside huskies, and are quite strong, which is also why you should teach you're GD the command "heel."

Marking page want one:3
Don't know if I could ever be
Without you 'cause boy you complete me
And in time I know that we'll both see
That we're all we need
'Cause you're the apple to my pie
You're the straw to my berry
You're the smoke to my high
And you're the one I wanna marry
You can be the peanut butter to my jelly
You can be the captain
And I can be your first mate
You can be the chills that I feel on our first date
You can be the hero
And I can be your sidekick
You can be the tear that I cry if we ever split
You can be the rain from the cloud when it's stormin'
Or you can be the sun when it shines in the mornin'
