stella surprise? fun with doggie dna

after reading about penny's surprising test results on leslie's blog, i am so getting this done for stella. after all if dna testing can prove that barack obama and dick cheney are related, i'm certain i can turn up something fun on our pup.

any bets?

we adopted our pup from the marin spca 4 years ago when she was 8 weeks old. they found her feral mommy, in a cave on a marin county beach, feeding a litter of pups. her mom was determined to be a 35-lb "cattledog mix" - stella is up to 60 lbs with lots of energy to spare after a 2 hour doggie playgroup session and was the alpha dog of her litter (more on that in a different blog post). so daddy must have been a big boy.

and that's all we know about the "breeding" that went in to our lovable mutt, stella artois mccartney jones. so far.
