Is Harley Long Hair or just fuzzy?

HeyJude · 02-16-2011, 01:06 PM

I keep reading all the post, but I can't tell. Can anyone tell from the photos if he is long hair? Also, he is only about 11lbs 12oz. at 8 weeks (he will be 9 weeks on sunday), but he has gained a bit in the week I have had him, does anyone know how to tell how much he should weigh? I have a postal scale that goes up to 25lbs, after that I'll have to take him to the vet or market to weigh him!

Looks like a long coat to me. The tufts behind the ears are a pretty good indicator to me.

Harley looks to me like a long hair, just like Stella, absolutely beautiful!!

That first photo is priceless! I love his eyes.

Not trying to get off topic, but did you rename him Harley? I was confused I thought maybe you got another puppy because I thought you had a puppy named Chewy? So he's now Harley? He's a cutie!

He's at a normal, average weight for some GSD puppies....and he is a long stock coated puppy.
Congrats & best wishes!

Robin... when you say "long stock coated"... do you mean plush coat or long coat?

Yes, at first we named him Chewy, but didn't fit him. Then husband was calling him Hunter, I didn't like that. Then we started calling him Harley and that seems to be sticking. He looks like a Harley!
I gave him his first bath today, gosh they are vocal!

Harley is a good name too. I try to keep the names of the dogs and members straight in my mind. So now I know Harley for HeyJude.

He is a cutie pie! Yes, GSDs are very vocal-some talk, moan, groan, bark, howl some do all of the above. They are fantastic dogs.

Stella is a purty girl! How old was she when her ears started to go up?
