hi i am hoping someone can help me. i am looking for a pic of german shepard x ret as i have seen pups for sale but not sure what they would like when older. i hope someone can help please. sam
there is not set 'look' for them, depends on the pup, ours looked like a small newfie but others look more like GSD's...no set rule, depends on so many factors really...size of parents etc...they can be big...some not so big...
You never can tell with a cross what it will look like, a friend of mine had a pup from a labxgsd and every pup grew up different. Some long hair, some short, some had different colours and some just looked like black labs. Lucky dip really when you get a cross.
it's not that much of a lucky dip! there are only certain genes available so you can't cross a husky and a lab and get spots for example! If you cross two erect eared dogs (pure bred parents only) then the pups will have erect ears... simple genetics. Before I got my cross I googled the two words and saw lots of pictures of what they could turn out like. Turns out she is better than I could have hoped for, although she did go through some weird colour stages! At the end of the day, if you get a pup you will love it no matter what it turns out like, and I think most importantly you want a good temperament and you have the health thing sorted with hybrid vigor (depending again on the health of the parents) sounds like the X you are interested in might be very interesting, can't wait to see pics if you get one!
i will let you now but i do now the breeder so will try and get some pics for you all to see just want to see what was like as an adult as pups are very cuite.
Just went to google and typed in German shepherd x retriever and found this pic There are loads, have a look
