No obsession per se. I think a forum like this can yield excellent opinions, and I'm interested to hear them. Between the rescue and multiple vets, we've probably heard about 10 different breed possibilities. In practice, I think it would also be valuable to know so we can better plan for her growth (or lack thereof), behaviors, etc.

Thanks for the advice. That was probably exaggerated a bit, as we've done just one hike of about 10 miles. Typically we're in the 3-6 mile range, and find that she is comfortable with that.

I attached a pic I could find that has her tail. It curls up sometimes when she is active. Flattens out when she's more relaxed. Doesn't usually hang downward too much.

Her name is Maple!

What a gorgeous and very appropriate name for such a beautiful girlie x

Lovely name
