Tiger Colored Shepherd puppies

GypC84 · 03-06-2013, 04:36 PM

I don't know if this goes here or somewhere else, so if it needs moved please do so. I've been looking at different breeders trying to find the best one for us. I ran across someone mentioning tiger colored shepherds. Is this a legitimate color? I don't want one but was curious if anyone else has heard of them.

I can see if I can find it. Honestly the pup in the picture didn't look purebred... but then again maybe it was a really bad picture.

Looks like a Sable coat.. but def not purebred.

That looks like a Dutch Shepherd, purebred.
The title of the link mentions Dutch and that's what it looks like.
They are akin to a brindle Mali.

Eeeeek ok perhaps they are Dutch x GSD crosses. There is a breed called Dutch Shepherd that can be brindle marked. They are a different breed than GSDs but very similar in many ways. There are no purebred brindle GSDs.

That is not a purebred German Shepherd.

Scary ad. That poor pup needs to be adopted, but this is definitely NOT a legitimate breeder! Not even a halfway decent BYB.

Maybe they threw all those keywords into the ad to try to rehome the puppy?

It's a mixed breed, probably has some shepherd in him somewhere along the way, bred with something having a brindle coat.

The markings are brindle, not tiger.

Ah...I'm ignorant about these. Perhaps it is a pb dog. In the back of a pickup waiting to be delivered to Chicago? Still a scary ad to me.
