This is Pony, although he has a new name now. He is with his Golden Retriever buddy all crammed onto a recliner. He’s got a nice dark face! And his feet are bigger than the Golden’s!

GSD Puppy Ears
This video illustrates how a GSD Puppy’s ears might look at just under 4 months of age. Especially note how sometimes this puppy’s right ear is flat and pointed hard backwards, and sometimes it is flopping. The left ear is up nicely.

Winston the Babysitter

Natural retrieving is the instinct most highly correlated with trainabilityContinue reading “German Shepherd puppy as natural retriever”
