Just curious
You're right. A Greyhound muzzle on a Dalmatian would be considered snippy. However, on a Greyhound, it could be interpreted as a powerful muzzle. It does not have to look snippy on a Greyhound to look snippy on a Dalmatian. The term "snippy" muzzle pertains to whichever breed you're talking about.
