Axel – Notice the Facial Features

Many people ask about identifying Axel and Grayson.  The most distinctive characteristic is the grayish saddle on Grayson’s back.  What if you are only looking at at a facial view?  One thing to note is the definition of the Axel’s muzzle.  Do you notice the more slender appearance with less of a sweep below the eyes?  If so, you are noting Axel’s characteristics.  If you add his behavioral characteristics of pulling pack member’s tails, then ID becomes much easier.
