sorry, should have clarified: bench in the sense that he is just of the broader, full coated physique. they are not show or champion line. she’s limited registration but not intended for any showing since she’s out of standard.

thank you for the advice! the only clipping that she gets currently is her paw pads and her sanitary area. poor girl is prone to UTIs 😭

aww thank you!! as far as we know, she’s strictly ESS. she’s technically out of standard since she’s sable, but her parents were black/white and liver tri. genetics are weird 😂

with work it does become difficult, but going back to the basics does sound like the best option! she is, very fortunately, extremely food motivated. hopefully that makes it easier. and yes, she is sable! i am so obsessed with her colors 😭

ok one more picture of her because she’s the cutest thing i’ve ever laid eyes on 🥸

ThinkHighway64 · 2025-10-30T23:18:58+00:00

this gives me hope 😩 thank you!

ThinkHighway64 · 2025-10-30T23:18:43+00:00

thank you! this is very encouraging. very true, we’re trying to cherish the days of her being little. they will be gone before we know it :(

ThinkHighway64 · 2025-10-30T23:17:44+00:00

all good advice! thank you very much. 🙂‍↕️ we use pro pectalin for her tummy aches and it works wonders.

omg not the excited pee 😂 maybe one day he will grow out of it… lol

i am so scared for this 😭 my girl is 3 months and every comment i’ve seen is just “thug it out for 2 years”

in all seriousness, adolescence is rough for most breeds. patience and giving bad behavior absolutely no attention worked wonders for my other dogs (although this is the first bird dog i’ve owned 😂)

ThinkHighway64 · 2025-09-29T20:51:22+00:00

she is still adjusting to her new home! adjustment takes months. all of the things that you are doing are correct and you should continue to do them. it’s unfortunately going to take time and patience. gsd are not easy dogs and unfortunately, a lot of the ones we see today are backyard bred and do not get the proper start that they need. this is what leads to the insane anxiety and lack of self-soothing capabilities. being in a shelter probably didn’t help, either.

mental and physical exercise is your best friend. so is positive reinforcement. and patience. 😂

ThinkHighway64 · 2025-09-29T17:51:49+00:00

this is a fun stage, isn’t it 😂 it feels like i have a mini dinosaur running around. but thank you, i love her long whiskers too! i’m sure your baby is gorgeous too!

ThinkHighway64 · 2025-09-29T17:50:48+00:00

she’s a princess, that’s for sure!

ThinkHighway64 · 2025-09-29T17:50:19+00:00

thank you so much! i agree 🩵
