[pyrnet] GP/Akbash mixes????

[Karen <karen@benjaminfarms.com>]

   Is the piebald(black spots) on the skin just above the nose a trait 
of Akbash?  Do GP's also have this?  We help with the LGD rescue here in 
Utah and I am beginning to wonder if my last few rescued GP's, are 
actually Akbash crosses.  There body is a little longer and the coat is 
a little shorter.  I can send pictures if anyone is good at trying to 
identify the breed or go to www.benjaminfarms.com/Dogs.html and look at 
the last 3 pictures.  One is suppose to be a female GP, a male Akbash 
and a female rough coat Akbash with a kink in her tail, reflective of a 
French line.  I would appriceate any one who is good at distinguishing 
these breeds.
