Otis, 100% good boy
Otis is now 11 months old, roughly 60lbs and 27" at the shoulder. He has brindling on his head, face, shoulders, hips and legs with black on his face and saddle. Soft grey undercoat and wiry black outercoat. Large rose ears.
The "coats and colors" website says : "Shorthaired dogs with furnishings produce a wiry coat with longer leg hair, coarse body hair and some beard and bushy eyebrows. The hairs along the dorsal line are sometimes slightly longer and coarser than on the rest of the body. The wiry texture is caused by thick and bent guard hairs that stick out away from the body."
This describes Otis' appearance.
Haven't really delved too deep into the various genes identified, will post more when I get a chance.
Surprised? By some things, yes. Surprised there's no sighthound in him, tbh. But there is scenthound, and pointer, which checks out.
Thoughts?
