Detailed Listing Information
Paz is a large bone plush coated Black and Tan male pup. Outgoing, strong personality who would excel at obedience due to his intense play drive. He is great with kids, but older kids are advisable since he does not seem to know his own strength when he plays. He is a dog that loves to run/play and needs an owner who can keep his mind active to keep him out of trouble :) He needs a home where his owner can devote the time to him since he is true people dog. He is great with other dogs, but can be a bit much for older more laid back dogs.
Lilly is a beautiful typy sweet sweet calm girl who is very devoted, and would like nothing more than to sit quietly by her owners side, and follow her family wherever they go. If I had less dogs here Id seriously consider keeping her since she is such an easy pup to live with. She is quiet in the home, but very playful outside and can be quite comical at times. She has excellent house manners, aloof to adult strangers since her first concern is her family. She would attach easily whereever she went, due to her need to be/please her owner. She loves all kids, and would be great with kids of all ages due to her gentle nature. A home with one or no dogs is recommended for her, since anymore since here her brother tends to bully her at times due to her gentle nature.
Both are out of my Ch Amari's Beware of Foxy Roxy CGC OFA Hip & Elbow Certified and Ch Kismet's Ladies Man OFA Hip & Elbow Certified. Raised in my home with kids and other dogs, crate and house trained.
The German Shepherd Dog is a large, strong, handsome-looking dog, looking a lot like a wolf. The fur is a double-coat and can be either short or long haired. It varies in color, coming in many different shades, mostly cream (tan) and brown, but also solid black or white. Dogs with coats that have tricolored hair (black and white with either brown or red) are called sable or agouti. Different kennel clubs have different standards for the breed according to size, weight, coat color, and structure.
Some groups or breeders have focused on variants or mutations of the breed that are not recognized by most kennel clubs as acceptable show GSDs but that might eventually become breeds on their own.
A white (or very light), but not albino, version of the German Shepherd has also always occurred, but was designated a disqualifying fault in the AKC in the late 1960s. The white coat is considered a fault by International (FCI) Fédération Cynologique Internationale breed standards in most parts of the world.
The white coat, however, does not prevent the white-coated German Shepherd Dog from being registered in the AKC as a German Shepherd Dog. White Shepherds hold champion titles in the UKC (United Kennel Club). Now, some breeders selectively breed White Shepherds for their beautiful snowy white coats and physical stature, striving for a Shepherd that closely resembles the original dog; less angular than today's German Shepherd breed. See the WGSDCA or American White Shepherd Association for more detail. However, the white German Shepherd has been recognised by some organisations under the name Berger Blanc Suisse (or White Shepherd Dog).
The so-called "long-haired German Shepherd" is considered a "fault" in the German Shepherd Dog breed according to American Kennel Club standards as well as the International (FCI) breed standard. The long hair gene is recessive. Dogs with this coat look somewhat like the Tervueren type of Belgian Shepherd Dog. An example with pictures can be found here. Popular myth holds that long-haired GSDs ("fuzzies") are more affectionate, but there is little evidence for this. Long coats usually have no or little undercoat, thus they can be rather sensitive to extreme weather.
Giant shepherd
Some organizations recognize a deliberately bred, larger variation of the breed as the Shiloh Shepherd Dog or King Shepherd.
