Hello everyone,

this is my first time posting, but not my first GSD. I'm getting a female sable puppy in a few weeks. Dam is a dark sable (though I certainly wouldn't say "black" sable) and Sire is a black and red (typical black saddle with rich red).

here she is at 3 weeks:

I'm really excited to see her color as she grows, and would love to see pics of everyone else's sable x black/tan/red german shepherds!

Thanks!!

Awww, she is just too cute! I love them at that age.... they look like little guinea pigs!!

Hope you post more pics as she grows! Sables are fun to watch as they go through so many changes.

She's a sable.. and will change MANY TIMES in color throughout her life!! My female will change with the seasons as well (she's two).

Here's a pic of my 5 month old pup Rik at 10 weeks, and one at 20 weeks... and he is still changing every day! And below that is my female Budvar at 10 weeks and two years... Both of these dogs have B&T mothers and sable fathers (unrelated).

RIK 10 WEEKS

RIK 20 WEEKS

BUDVAR 10 WEEKS

BUDVAR 2 YEARS

Hello Sable86,

Your female sable looks so cute :)

I´ve recently brought home my first german shepperd, like yours is a sable too. Dam is red sable, sire black sable.
