BlackthornGSD, that's my dog's great-grand-dam,
I always wondered what kind of markings she has,
Her name is "
Sweet Caroline von Ryanhaus"

As you can see from my profile picture--my light colored female is maskless. She is an AKC registered gsd. People often ask me if she has coyote in her!

I been looking but can't find the standards I read about a week ago...it specifically stated that GSD must have predominately dark muzzle. I could be wrong...i will keep looking for the info...

The lack of a mask is considered a fault. From the SV breed standard:
Dogs with little or no masks, yellow or strikingly light eyes, light markings on the chest and insides of the legs, light/white nails and a red tip of the tail or washed out weak colours are considered lacking in pigment.
Fading pigment is listed as a 'serious fault'

They have a look of wolf hybrids. Apprently wolf hybrids develope white colouring around the mouth due to the mix (not sure how much of that is true)
I like this look :)

A lot of the Rozavel dogs had the reversed mask,years back.I wish i could get it in my dogs .I loved the looks and brains of Chucks dogs ,and yes they where pure breds.You dont see many reversed mask dogs anymore.
Chuck was a great man .He is still alive today in a nursing home.
