Our backyard is adjacent to a church parking lot, and there is a daycare in the back of the church, with a playground within full view through our chain link fence. Chance loves to hang out in the yard watching the kids and parents come and go, and in particular when the kids are out in the...

So we sent away for one of those doggie DNA kits and got the results yesterday for our rescue Steve. He's Collie and German Shepherd (predominantly) with a smattering of Borzoi. Here's my handsome gent:
