She is a very rare Liver/white/tan roan Springer. Although Roan Springers are AKC standard, there are only 3 breeders in North America that I am aware of. Roan spingers are more common in Europe. So many people stop to admire and compliment Bailey, its kind of fun.
I don't know too much about dog nutrition, but there will be somebody that will be able to give you some advice.

Sounds like Dixie is quite a hero. fighting off a bear to save her guardians.

As for colouring, we sure would love to see pictures of your beauty so we can share in the joy of looking at her.
