I'm telling you, I suffered through that whippet-GSD for 29 days and then switched my calendar early.

I guess it could be a GSD puppy, I have had young'ns with ears up really early. But it looks, I don't know.

I will tell you what a woman who ran after me at a GSD specialty show said about my Schipperke mix: "THAT'S A SHIBA INU! THAT'S A SHIBA INU! I KNOW THESE THINGS AND THAT'S A SHIBA INU!"

Seriously, that's what it looks like and that is sort of what my Schip mix looked like (except he looked more Schipperke - oops, THAT'S A SHIBA INU!).

Looks pretty darn identical to Delgado's playmate in his puppy class who WAS a Shiba Inu named Hiro. Same markings and everything Great dog but not my type

I thought Shiba too.

Sadly, it's not the first time I've seen breeds mislabeled in publications. I have two breed encyclopedias that have pictures of dogs that are not of the same breed as the profile. It's really sad that editors aren't spotting this. Like, how do you mistake an Australian Shepherd for a Greater Swiss Mountain Dog. I think the only thing they have in common appearance wise is the the tricolor coat pattern.

I think so but don't quote me. It was the GSD puppy one.
