Hello,

New to the forum and glad I found this page! Our family has always been fans of either Golden Retrievers or German Shepherds and in general go with rescues. Not really looking for a dog at the time this guy came into our life.

The story on him is that he came from a home that had 2 German Shepherd female mixes that got out and each had a litter. Something seemed a bit odd though in how much the various puppies had Shepherd features so strong.

Looking up various Shepherd types, I am curious what would my little guy be. He also has a tendency to always keep one ear floppy, and will be 1 year old in a few days.

Is that photo on the left at one year? Looks like a GSD to me although the color pattern is a bit different than I normally have seen. Nice looking dog regardless

That pic on the left is at about 5 months I believe. Yeah his color has been very interesting. great dog

Well he's a shepherd mix. I pretty highly doubt that a girl got loose and it just so happens that a purebred German shepherd happened to breed with her. Unlikely, but I suppose possible. Since the dam is a mix, your boy is a mix, regardless of the sire being a purebred GSD or not. Either way, he's cute!

Do you have any recent photos or photos of the parent?

The mother could be 3/4 German Shepherd who bred with a German Shepherd mix. The ear shape is not purebred but he’s a nice looking dog.

Thanks. he just turned 1 year yesterday.

Unfortunately no pics of the mom, sibling was all white with black nose, almost had him with us too but only so many dogs we can take care of lol.

He is a great dog, happy to have him in the family.
