Great earset!  She is very pretty!

Great earset!  She is very pretty!

Beautiful pigment....I think she has a very nice sidegait...Appears to be balance movement...Nice reach and good follow through...Not over done on either end....Looks to have nice substance, and a gorgeous ear set....Don't you just love that tuff of fur that sticks up that makes it appear that the tail is just plug on?  I hate it...Our older Bi color male has that and his tail appears to be plugged on......What are your plans for her?

                Beautiful face....

 beautiful big ears but is skinny

Actually the pup is in beautiful condition TX, you don't want a puppy fat.  :)

Nope, no fat puppies. She already weighs 40lbs. I prefer a slow growth as do many others on this board.

Thank you all for the nice comments.

Nona, we will train for whatever she show an aptitude for. Right now she is ball crazy so I am using that for motivational obedience, she has an excellent nose for tracking and is a little alligator. Being that we are involved in the K9 aspect of the world we will probably try for some detection. Who knows, if I can find someone in central NC with sheep, goats etc.. I would love to try herding. The future is whatever we make of it and although you may never see us on the field doing sports, you may very well meet some of her siblings and half siblings working out on the streets.

Looks great to me, but I'm no expert. I just know cute when I see it! Nice gait, the second picture shows a very nice reach, pigment is so dark it was hard to distinguish which leg was forward, nice! Nice expression, good job stacking, lovely ears....not much to fault. And that tuft of hair at the base of the tail..why does it always curl up like that? Is that a vestige of a curly coated GSD way back...Eric or Erlich or something?? I think I remember reading about that.....? jackie harris

MELBA,  AMEN TO WHAT YOU SAID....Its not always on the sport field that you will find the good and great dogs...I believe the greats one are found on the street actually doing a job that society will benefit from....I am not saying that the ones on the sport field has no worth, I do enjoy seeing the work ability many of them display, but for different reasons than what you will find on the street....She is a lovely bitch and I like the adjective used to discribe her....ALLIGATOR.... We call our lil guy, pac man...His jaws are always snapping at anything that moves...He turned 8 wks old on the 16th of this month..
Good luck with your girl, keep us updated...
