Heyer question
I'm rereading The Reluctant Widow and am wondering: does anyone have a good photo-reference for Bouncer? I know roughly what a Mastiff looks like, and by lurcher, I imagine Heyer most probably means a Greyhound-Collie cross, but I'm having a rather difficult time imagining how the three would go together. Aside from the part where Bouncer is clearly a Very Large Dog.
Since it seems unlikely that anyone out there actually has a Greyhound/Collie/Mastiff cross and has put pictures of same on the internet (although this is the internet and one never knows), speculation is also welcome!

I'm not sure what kind of lurcher or whether mastiff is being used as short for bull mastiff (so there may be some extra bull terrier in there). If a little bull terrier is allowed to creep in you can also get something like the new Alaunts.
[I'd advise against reading the story - it has a happy ending but the beginning and middle is blood-boiling bureacracy with a heavy serving of police pig-headedness]
