Long haired pup???

eamo · 03-04-2011, 04:26 PM

Hi all.

I have a quick question for all you gurus out there.

Can anyone tell me if this pup will turn out to be a long haired german shepherd?

How would one tell if a pup was going to be long haired or not???

Thanks

Fluffy ear tufts are a dead giveaway.

Can you post a picture of your pup? It should be pretty easy to tell.

sorry forgot the pic! does this guy have fluffy ears?

Kind of hard to tell from that picture. Can you post a picture from the front instead of the side?

A close up picture of the back of the ears would help too.

I may be incorrect (im on my phone, not a regular computer so the pictures are small) but he/she looks like a fluffy stock coat to me... Not a long coat. How old is he/she? What did you breeder say?

Not an expert, but looks very much like my long haired Osa....

The breeder is not sure either. Waiting for another breeder to have a look to confirm. In these pictures which were taken today he is 5 and a half weeks old

Yeah looks just like a fluffy (plush) stock coat to me, but he still is pretty young. I'm going to stick with that.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong...

Yep looks plush, I'm not seeing long coat.
