Tell us about yourself: I love Shepherds- German, Dutch and Belgian. I recently lost my 16.5 y/o GSD mix and was hoping to find a GSD or DS mix. I totally lucked out in finding Grendel, a DS/GSD mix at 9.5 weeks old. She was filthy and flea-ridden, but still the cutest, craziest thing ever. She's going to live up to her name! First dog I've had that I've actually seen the parents and definitely know what she is!

Hi!

I just joined because I just got a rescue puppy that was touted as a DS, but I think at best she's a mix. I wanted to post photos and get input. I kind of doubt that this puppy is enough DS to have the trainability I am looking for. And she is terrorizing my dog-loving cat. :(

I love Shepherds- German, Dutch and Belgian. My 16.5 y/o GSD/possibly DS mix passed away a few months ago and I really want a DS or GSD mix.

Anyway, glad to be here!

Welcome! Thanks for rescuing!

Any degree of DS in the gene pool could help with "trainability" (and if that's the case, they might also have inherited a degree of the traits that make you want to :pint: :pint: :pint: .)
Though I can only hope to become the person who my animals believe I am, the things that they have taught me have made me a better human being. ~~~Sharon~~~

Welcome !!! Thank you for rescuing. Are you looking to do anything in particular with the dog? Would that be why you wanted more DS in the mix?

What is she doing to the cat, maybe we can help.
