- Tell us about yourself: Hi.....my name is Angela. I have 2 daughters and 1 granddaughter. All of my dogs (and cats) are rescues. 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.
Roxanne
I just adopted Roxanne (Roxie) yesterday from a local animal shelter. They told me she was a lab mix. She is 3 months old, very sweet, and quiet. She hasn't been quite brave enough to bark yet, only whine. Do you think my new baby might be a Dutch shepherd? Keep in mind that she is very underweight (in my opinion)

Re: Roxanne
I'm trying to figure out why it isn't. Obviously did something wrong.

Re: Roxanne
Possibly a DS cross with something else. Would have to see more pictures to make any real guess.
Here's a pic of my DS pup Leo. You can see the difference in the ears, nose, and face.

Re: Roxanne
I'll get some more pictures. So far I've been told lab and mastiff. I don't see much of those breeds inher. I definitely see shepherd in her face which led me here due to her coloring. She is probably a mix.

- Tell us about yourself: I adopted a Dutch Shepherd mix (without knowing what she was) from the SPCA here in Victoria BC and am now trying to learn everything I can about this breed. My husband and I work from home most of the time so I thought it was time to get a puppy! We have his 2 boys here half the time and we wanted a nice family dog.
Sugar looks like a miniature Dutch Shepherd with floppy ears, and has every ounce of DS traits in her little body!
I hope to learn from other DS owners and share doggy experiences. - Location: Victoria BC
Re: Roxanne
I've got a mix myself, and went crazy trying to figure out what she could be...nothing I knew of with brindle matched...that is until I came across info about the DS breed, so I decided she must be DS mix.
Yours sure looks like she has Shepherd ears and DS colours. And is a real cutie : )
Congrats on your new addition!!

Re: Roxanne
Thank you everyone! She is a very sweet puppy. I will never understand how people can take a pup like her to a shelter.

Here's another picture of her. She is really skinny right now.

Re: Roxanne
She looks small but I don't think she looks too skinny. I keep my dogs on the lean side though as it's much healthier.

After years of GSD's, and a few dogs of other breeds (Rotti/Beauceron/Ger. Shorthaired Pointer/ Yorkie and my current Jack Russell) I now have another DS, 4mo female, no name yet, tho I have a few in mind.
Also have a horse-old quarter horse mare-32.

Re: Roxanne
For some reason (can't put my finger on it) she looks a bit "houndy" to me. Plott?

Re: Roxanne
Thanks everyone for the opinions! I guess we'll just have to see what she grows into. I always swore I'd never have another shepherd after I lost my Jenna (GSD/whippet mix) 2 years ago. I was always worried about comparing a new dog to her in my head unintentionally. Here I am looking into the face of another sweet possible shepherd mix! I must be nuts! LOL
She had her CGC and was also an awesome agility dog! She was watching for her girls to come out of band and colorguard practice that day. Hope it's okay to share her picture here.
