What breed has the most variations in marking etc?
There are some breeds out there who despite all their little personal traits and characters all look very similar (not the same, just very similar).There are also, in my opinion a few breeds where no two dogs ever look the same. Take springers for example.
Would you agree? If so, what breed do you think has the most variety in it?

If you randomly pluck 100 tan boxers I think they'd all look pretty similar, whereas 100 working line liver and white springers would all look completely different. Or have I just not seen enough boxers yet?

GSDs go from white to black and many colours/combination of colours in between.
Dalmations have different spots.
Staffies come in more colours than imaginable..
But for me I think the breed with the most variety in markings, coat and physical shape is the Catahoula Leopard Dog.

There are flashy boxers and solid/plain boxers so the amount of white varies. Star is a plain(ish) red boxer and Finn is an extra, extra flashy brindle boxer (ie white)
