In addition to my post from a couple of days ago, here are some pictures of the female in the litter who appears to be a longcoat. There is an obvious difference between her and her brothers, but I just want to get some opinions on whether or not she really is a longcoat. Thanks in advance....

A true long-coat (without undercoat) or rather a long stock-coat (with undercoat)? I vote for the latter, as I do not see the waviness that is usually present in the former. I think I am correct, but the passage of time will show the true coat type.

Regards,

What a cute fuzzball. I say long stock coat.

Not sure about the coat, but I have to say that is one of the prettiest puppies I've ever seen.

Thank you for your comments. I really like this girl and have hopes of keeping her and titling her, but if she is a longcoat, (please don't kill me for saying this longcoat lovers!) I can't do that. If I do all the work to raise and title her, I will want to breed her at some point, and I will not breed a longcoat. They are beautiful dogs....aren't all GSDs?...but just not what I want to produce. I really appreciate everyone's input and will keep my fingers crossed that this little girl will shed her puppy coat and grow in a stock coat. Thanks again!

I love your pictures, they are really nice!

I had a pup that was sired by a full coated GSD, and he was sooooo
fluffy, but he turned out to be regular coat.

17 days old!

I've got to tell you, he was the fluffiest pup I ever had, but he turned out regular coat, That's
his half brother in the middle,he was 1 out of 12 pups, the sire was coated, but yet not 1 coated pup.

This is their dad...
