Question about my german shepherd

lh661 · 01-16-2009, 11:47 AM

I have what I think would be a golden german shepherd. Do any of you know about golden german shepherds? I'm not sure if it's just bad breeding or just rare. Is there a way to submit a picture?

See this thread on how to post pictures:

Welcome to the board!
By "golden german shepherd" do you mean a dog who is all tan, with few or no black markings? Yes, this can happen, though it is pretty uncommon and would be considered an undesireable color. Usually these dogs are genetically sable, but are lacking in black pigment so there aren't many markings. Photos would definitely help.

Thank you! Did I post in the wrong spot? I see where it says GSD color for posting.

Hope has everything a german shepherd would stacking face etc. She just has a gold body and a black face and black and gold tail.

You can post it here, those are just general instructions on how to post in the picture section but you can post here in your thread instead.

You've GOT to send in a picture! I'm dying to see what she looks like!

lh661 · 01-16-2009, 12:24 PM

okay I posted the picture on Kingwood.com message boards for those of you that would like to see her. WShe's the one in my avatar. Let me know if you would like to see other pictures. I will look for replies here.

Can you post the pictures here in this thread? Easier than everyone trying to find them on another message board.

Edit to add: I went over there to see the pic, but it's very small. Can you post a larger one here.

From what little I can see in that pic, she's a gorgeous dog!

She's pretty - looks like Frodo in a girl suit! I'd like to see her pictures bigger though!
