Thought I might share a new Pup picture

[mfrade]

As the title says, here's a picture of my new puppy. The breeder called him Tan because of the collar color. But I named him Tango. Another Dutch Shepard. What can I say? I love'em

It's either "feed me" or I'm going to jump on you!"

I've never heard of a Dutch Shepard. What are they like? Anything similar to a German Shepard in size and temperament?

 

[mfrade]

Just a bit smaller / lighter than a GSD. Back in the 1700's or some such the Belgian Malinois was crossed with the German Shepard Dog and it all starts there. The Mal is a highly motivated / over-achiever kind of dog, The GSD is much easier going.. The Dutch Shepard has a lot of drive without the big build and usually has an easy "off switch" that the Malinois doesn't. My avatar was my first dutchie and the reason I wanted another.
