New here and question about my puppy.

Hi - we just adopted Sam and were told by the shelter that she is three and a half months and is German Shepard - but to me she looks like she might have Doberman in her? I guess because of her face. She is super smart - already learning how to sit and shake hands and fetching and she is getting along with our other dogs, although she wants to be the boss.

i'm no expert, but i don't think that is a purebred GSD. the white on the chest isn't normal to see. I'm not sure if there's doberman in there, but I don't think your pup is 100% shepherd. sure is cute though

I am no expert also , but it does not look like all Gsd either , but good looking dog. the being the boss is nervousness and trying to be the Dominate male of the pack

OMG! She looks like my daughter's dog
But def not GSD - interesting to see what mixes folks come up with. How big?
We figured maybe beagle and *something*

Sam is a good looking pup. I bet Sam ends up being one of the best dog's you have ever had. Enjoy!

I dunno, I can see some Dobe in there. Cute puppers!
