Could my GSD be mixed? - Page 3

lkellen · 12-04-2012, 11:03 PM

Well she is 55 lbs now... We have also been told her weight/height has been stunted due to her having parvovirus at 7 weeks (a pretty penny on our bank account 10 days after adopting her) ummm let me see some standing pics....

I would guess she is mixed with something-especially after seeing her tail. I dont see malamute though...cute regardless

Actually the tail would be considered a "gay tail" and happens even in purebred GSD's. I don't see Malamute at all though those pictures do make me see more GSD so hard to say.

Also, I highly doubt she's stunted regardless of the parvo. Even for a purebred female GSD, 55lb is acceptable. I've also never seen a dog stunted from parvo or any proof that it does.

She also still looks very puppy (I don't think you stated how old she is now) and will more than likely grow some more.

She is 9 months as of today!

I can definitely see the kelpie in her eyes & nose build. Especially when she was a liiittle puppy.

I have never seen a GSD with that kind of coloring and eyes... So I would guess she is a mix,but she is super duper cute. Also now that I just saw other pix her tail doesn't look GSD like, and her fur you said its soft, its not suppose to be sof. There is a genetic test you can buy they run like $80..

You should definately go for it, you will have her 10+ years you gotta know what breed she is, not only it will end the guessing game it will also let you know the possible diseases the dog might have, you would know what to look for, I would do it..

I think I will this weekend

She also just doesn't have the temperament I've seen with other GSDs. She's just very different!

She actually looks like a black and tan working kelpie- but what are the odds of one showing up in a shelter?

Whatever she is, she looks amazing! Are you considering any dog sports?
