Rescue dog a Dutch Shepherd?
New to the forum. I'm pretty sure our rescue dog, Parker is a dutch shepherd but wanted to get some opinions. She is 5 years old now and weighs about 65lbs.

Re: Rescue dog a Dutch Shepherd?
Awesome pictures! We also have an all brindle household - complete with Dutch and Frenchies!
Your dog is definitely a shepherd mix of some sort. Parker could be a Dutch mix. He could also be a GSD or malinois mixed with something brindle. Either way, he looks goreous and like he is a lucky boy to have found a place with you. Just make sure the Frenchie is easy on him
Ours boss the Dutch Shepherds around like crazy!

Re: Rescue dog a Dutch Shepherd?
The head shot doesn't look completely Dutch, but in the other shots, I can see it. I'm going to agree with Christie and say there's at least shepherd in there whether it's malinois, GSD, or DS isn't easy to tell from those pictures.
What's with the French Bulldog/DS thing though? I've met a ton of DS owners with the little brindle guys as well and I think it's hilarious seeing them together. I used to groom a little brindle Frenchie with white on his chest and used to take before and after pictures of him and Odin in the same bandanna and pose and tell my husband Odin fell into the garbage compactor.

Re: Rescue dog a Dutch Shepherd?
We got our Frenchies when a friend decided to downsize her household and asked us to foster until we could find a good home for them. The were here about 2 days when we decided they weren't going anywhere. Since then, we have lost one - got his grand daughter and had a changing of the guard with the DS too. Something about their contrasting personalities makes them perfect housemates.

- 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

Re: Rescue dog a Dutch Shepherd?
omg, what a great photo - and so hilarious as a matching pair in a strange sort of way.
Willow looks stunning and looks like an amazing dog. Edit: i know that that is the case, but i find it extraordinary how the camera can capture that and scream it to the viewer.
