I could definitely be wrong but I'm not sure he's PB. Not sure what it is its something in the muzzle area for me kinda has a Borzoi type look. Of course it could just be the pictures either way hes absolutely adorable. There are a few GSDs posted on here where their dog was a unique color as a pup and as they got older and blew their coats it kept changing and they were sables. There is another thread on the board where people can look at tell you what color the dog is and things like that you might wanna try reposting there if you don't get anyone over here.

Although your puppy is quite handsome, I don't think he is purebred GSD.

I can't quite put my finger on his cross, but he isn't purebred.

He is a cutie-pa-tootie though, just look at those humungo ears and that tiny tiny head... I LOVE it!!!

He's very cute, but I seriously doubt he's PB. Where did you get him from?

I was thinking photos of a fawn and a dog kind of mixed up. Those ears. He will be interesting when grown.

Well...no, i didnt get to see the father, only the mother. The lady said the father wasnt hers....and since i was really wanting a male, she only brought out to me the two males she had left and his brother looked identicle to him. to a t.....on his AKC registration form it gives the name of both his parents and their DN number...so how could that be if he wasnt pure bred? I know its expensive to get a DNA test done but if I do get one done and he isnt pure bred could their be a law suit towards this lady for giving false paperwork or something?

He looks pale, but like a sable.

Here's a bunch of 7 week old (maybe younger?) sable GSD puppies:



If you went to a responsible breeder you can just give them a call and they will answer your questions. That's why we pay so much and take so much time to find a 'responsible' breeder. Because they are open and honest and will clear up any issues coming up.
