Default (Sire)American Shepherd?

(Sire)American Shepherd?-max-sire-.jpg

(Sire)American Shepherd?-brigitta-dam-.jpgHi Everyone, I purchased my dog from a breeder in up north michigan and im curious what everyone thinks my dogs father is. . Well he is a GSD but is he american? He doesnt seem to relate to any other pics of american alsatian dogs so im just stuck. I hope someone can help. Here is a pic.
I also want to know about the female. The breeder told me she was Czech and German. Im basically asking peoples opinions on these dogs.

Maybe an American Show line? Do you have a pedigree? AKC papers?

...Hard to tell by the pictures posted... Female's face/head looks ASL. She has a face like Zira.... looks long/slender and pointy. From that angle... I can't really see any German/Czech. But, then again, I'm not an expert or experienced with this... just some things I noticed.

I think she's very pretty. If you can post the pedigrees, many people here can read it and tell you what you have. If you have AKC papers then he's not an American Alsation. The sire was probably American Show Lines.

Go back to the breeder and get a pedigree - names - . To my eye he looks like an "american" bred , faded pigment , male - saw dogs like this that came out of Reno of Lakeside progeny .
