I'm interested in hearing breed guesses. Her former owner told me that her
mother was a Golden Retriever. Obviously, there's something else there too.

Could Queenie be a FCR mix?

Are you trolling Kate?

People do keep guessing FCR, so maybe there's something to it.

She's gorgeous, right?

Statistically, probably not: but on pure looks alone, it's not a bad
guess. She has a nice FCR head, although the ears have much more
character than we allow. :-)

However, Queenie's former owner was probably right. Black, shaggy, and
retriever-ish is more likely to have GR behind it than FCR, simply
because there are so many GRs out there. She could easily be a GR mixed
with something black and not-floppy-eared. FCRs and GRs, especially
field GRs, have lots and lots in common. The colour issue can get in
the way.

Here, for your viewing pleasure, is a photo of three FCRs.

Here is the yellow girl, alone.

Yes, the yellow one (Choni) is also an FCR, and had done quite nicely
for herself in the field and other dog sports. (Yellow is disqualifying
in the breed ring only). If you were to put her into a pack of field
Goldens and ask people from either breed to find the one that doesn't
belong, I think you'd find a lot of folks at a complete loss.

S'alright. I bit, hook, line, and sinker. It was a good excuse to get out
photos of a cool dog.

Right. She is a perfect companion for Zoe.

"character" - a good word for them! Lucy's ears are smooth, but have
the same action/level. She's lab/gsd mix, so something pointy eared
(and black) with golden is a pretty good guess.

Have you seen Choni in person? I have and she is prettier in her
pitcure IMO.

Never had the pleasure, and it looks now like I may not. I understand that
Amy's done travelling with Choni.

She looks really very "retrieverish", so the previous owner is probably
right about the breed of the dam. The other parent has to be something with
erect or semi-erect ears and non-yellow coat - but not necessarily black
coat. And it has to have either longish coat, or it has to carry the "l"
gene for the coat. I'd say Border Collie.

How big is she again?

She looks an awful like a friends black (with a white spot on
her chest) BC X, Soot.
