Recent foster fail, possible dutch?

Post by Ames86 »

HI all! I just fostered/adopted this puppy and one of my friends who works closely with shepherds of all sorts and mals is leaning towards him being a ds mix. The rescue/vet has him listed as a lab mix.

This last one is just amusing. This dog has the craziest sleeping positions.

His ears flip flop on staying up or down. He's 7 months old and it started with his left ear up, right down and now his right is up sometimes with his left down. He tends to keep them pulled back or floppy currently. I don't actually care what his ears end up doing, he's adorable and sweet regardless. But just thought I'd share him to get some thoughts. The vet didn't say much about her thoughts on him.

Welcome! I don't see much Dutch Shepherd in him. Looks more GSD mix. He is handsome though!
