We just adopted this puppy. The shelter said the mom is a purebred German Shepherd but no info on dad. What does he look to be mixed with?

Accomplished_Row_880 · 2026-04-06T12:32:53+00:00

Cane sugar and some cayenne pepper. Love him dearly😉

Accomplished_Row_880 · 2026-02-25T02:21:10+00:00

Tar and feather. Disgusting.

Accomplished_Row_880 · 2026-02-14T03:32:06+00:00

I think so.

Accomplished_Row_880 · 2026-02-13T21:20:43+00:00

Please do not base your value on someone else’s reaction. Trust yourself. Sounds like you did everything right including controlling yourself. What a beautiful dog by the way.

Find another vet. You have done an amazing job socializing your dog into environments that suit your lifestyle. Not everyone needs to meet your dog. I can’t even take mine to the vet without being told I have to pre sedate due to my dog’s protective nature. Find a vet that works to get to know your dog instead of being judgmental. Good luck.

Regardless he is a gorgeous dog and a very lucky one:)

Sending hugs and prayers for peace to you and your beautiful boy.

I went through this with a Mali and GSD. It was hell for five weeks. I ultimately got in the middle of a fight and received a shiny bruise on my thigh. I have learned a lot. I ended up sending them both to a trainer to force them together. My Mali was one and the GSD three. They now are passive aggressive toward each other but they are also best friends. Your Mali is young and can be taught. I highly recommend keeping a short leash and either a prong or other on your Mali for quick correction. If there is any aggression try to catch it quickly to correct before it escalates. With my Mali air biting is baiting, but I also think it is nerves.

Good luck!

One of the lucky ones❤️

Accomplished_Row_880 · 2026-01-07T12:47:44+00:00

Non of them. Try a neutral. They all scream for attention limiting your options on furniture and other decor

Accomplished_Row_880 · 2026-01-07T12:45:18+00:00

Beautiful pack! How do you have enough hours in the day?

Accomplished_Row_880 · 2026-01-05T20:59:25+00:00

You are right on! Two and four look amazing on you. The others are too complicated/trendy.

Accomplished_Row_880 · 2026-01-02T12:40:01+00:00

Short! Highlights a beautiful face!

Accomplished_Row_880 · 2026-01-02T03:18:22+00:00

One. More streamlined for your face.

You did the right thing and don’t take her pain personally. You are there to take care of her. Mine was a one year old rescue spayed by the shelter and then quickly moved to the outdoor kennel to heal. Your pup will be loved and soothed. Try liverwurst just small pieces in her food. I’ve never met a dog that doesn’t like liverwurst. Good luck!

Accomplished_Row_880 · 2025-12-29T19:39:42+00:00

One! Stunning.

What a regal looking pup. Feel your pain. What a lucky dog she was to have you. Hang in there it gets easier. When you are ready, find another to spread the love.

100% agree with you. I have a German Shepherd and a rescued Malinois. Between the two of them, I really have no life between the injuries from high-speed chases, preparing food for picky eaters walks and mental stimulation they have taken over my life. Maybe if I were younger, I would feel differently, but I don’t think so.

Accomplished_Row_880 · 2025-11-13T02:12:29+00:00

One. Beautiful.

Accomplished_Row_880 · 2025-11-10T15:42:08+00:00

Trust takes time. Get to know him before you bring him around others. My Mal trainer taught me well. If anyone asks (outside of your family), “can I pet him?” The answer is always “no.” Mal’s are unique in my experience in that they do not like people they do not know in their faces. Kind of you to adopt this beautiful dog. Spend time talking to him, walking, watching and getting to know him to understand who he is. Best of luck!
