Tell us about yourself: My name is Lili and I rescued my "Dutch Shepherd" mix at 8 weeks old. Her name is Koala and I love her more with all my heart. She's the sweetest and smartest dog I've had the pleasure to raise.

Tell us about yourself: DS and Mal foster newly approved aug'12 by NADSR and ABMCR. high-functioning Autistic in nyc/hamptons in my 60's. Rescued the smartest dog i had ever seen off nyc street in 2000. Tracedog's intelligence exceeded by multiples my judgement that day. My first [and only as of 10/2012] dog turned out to be a DS, perhaps with a touch of something else, but attention to detail, behavioral traits, and physical habits, movement, and skill identical to DS. But MUCH more intellectual ability. supremely confident in all settings, fearless, very outgoing and social with people and friendly with dogs. Seldom apart in over 12 years, Trace Dog was the most important relationship of my adult life; he was my partner. He died july17,2012. i am dying without him. www.youtube.com/tracesobaka www.dogster.com/dogs/637612

My first instinct is to say no, but I can't put my finger on why. It's really hard to make a judgment from the shots you put up and without more info.

Can you get a profile shot of her standing, and a shot of her standing from with you looking down, and a front shot of her standing? How old is she, 8 months? How tall is she at the shoulder and how much does she weigh?

Her ears seem kind of spoon shaped to me, so that might be part of it, as well as the total lack of face mask.

Can you describe her personality?
