Thank you for the information, Elson.
The dog does have unusual and attractive markings. If you find out what
breed he is would you pass that information along also, please? I never
thought about other breeds of dogs existing only in other countries, but why
not?
I'd love to see the other photos you mentioned in your reply to my original
question.
Take Care,
Marilyn

Oh, so sorry Marilyn and the rest. "Here" means Cagayan de Oro,
Philippines. I returned from Canada "here" in November, and I'm still
here, having obviously escaped from winter.
Cagayan de Oro is a city. The traffic is horrible. Something like 6 out
of 10 cars emit dark, suffocating smoke. I find myself complaining all
the time while driving from my home to our office. So, one day, to keep
myself busy, I decided to shoot, with the glass window closed, of
course, because I couldn't bear breathing the smog.
The resulting photos look dense, smoky, amateurish. I have a photo of a
child begging, a church "assaulted" by electric wires, and a store
covered with ugly billboards, among others. Maybe soon I'll show these
to our politicians, or make a website out of them.
In one instance, though, I rode through a rural highway, and found a dog
with rare markings. The air was clean so I opened the window and made
several shots. Here's the result: http://elizaga.net/spots.htm.
I sent this URL to the Canine Genetics list and I'm now exchanging notes
with a gentleman in the US who breeds rare chickens and spotted dogs
from South America. He is there, I'm here, thank God for the Internet. :)

Hi Elson,
