What is a Gingersnap Dog?
Gingersnap Dogs, or GDs, are agile, long tailed dogs with fluffy, furry ears. They mostly live in the wild, found in the mountains, but have also been tamed and make great pets. They are mostly German Shepherd dog and golden retriever sized. They have tufts of fur on there front legs and back, and males have longer and thicker tufts then females. They almost always have spots or stripes, and never have an unnatural based coat, but can have unnatural markings.
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 will be placed for adoption shortly. I have written about this mix and added it to the box of records I found in my closet.
