Meet Stella!
Okay so here she is! I'm kind of a picture nut.... my poor children are constantly getting my iPhone pointed at them and now Stella is too! She doesn't hold still as well as they do for pictures but I've got some cute ones.... I have noticed that all of your dogs seem a lot darker espeically in the face.... do you guys think she is probably a dutch/german shepherd mix? Not that it matters, I'm just curious!

Re: Meet Stella!
Oh she looks much more Shepherd than that first picture you posted. How much does she weigh? That should be a good indicator. While the black mask is usually there, I have seen a few without it. A GSD cross is likely to weigh 80+, depending on the amount of each breed in the pedigree.
There is a "breeder" around me that tries to sell "Tiger Shepherds," basically a GSD/DS mix. He's been pumping them out for a few years, so a few are bound to show up in rescue sometime or another.
She's gorgeous either way. The lighter body really makes the bridle pop. Oh and that demand for a belly rub. Get used to it!

Re: Meet Stella!
She's 65lbs and very muscular. Her brindle really does pop she looks very tiger striped to me.

I have a puppy that we just adopted that I think could be at least part Dutch Shepherd. We also have a 2 year old pug/min pin mix and an 11 year old border collie and possible lab mix.
Re: Meet Stella!
Pretty girl! I kind of see GSD but who knows. I admit to not knowing much of anything about the DS.

Re: Meet Stella!
Lovely brindle! I do not per se see GSD in there. They usually have (more) mask too. For Stella though, the lack of mask makes the brindle on her head show even more, making her one nice looking girl.
