Thank you for saving a life! :wtg:
What a sweet looking dog you've got. I certainly see some kind of shepherd in her, no doubt.
With the white markings on chest and feet, I would guess there is a dash of bulldog in there, and due to the size of the ears, my other guess would be German Shepherd. Though I have seen some KNPV Dutch shepherds with very large ears too. I cannot tell from the pictures how big she is, but my guess is shepherd x bulldog (pit or something similar that comes in brindle has a lot of white) She is put together nicely and if it is a mix, it came out with a body that would really fit a Dutch Shepherd. I also love that sad expression of your girl. Makes you want to give her a big hug. 8-)

She doesn't look that different from my Doerak. He was sold to me as a "Malinois". But he definitely had some brindle in his coat at certain stages of shedding. So, I called him a German Shepherd x Dutch Shepherd.

Why do people suggest greyhound so often for a dutch/gsd/ mal? I’m just curious. No offense or anything but I’ve heard so many people ask that and I’m like... do you know what a greyhound looks like?? They look like oversized rats
