Pls …Is this my 5months old a local dog?

I think he still looks good and he is big for 5 months

TheLoanGuy:
He's growing up well. You're doing a good job. His height is good.

GSD shed their furs frequently and his actual fur pattern may not show until he's an adult, be sure that they're not bald patches. Hope you're deworming him frequently?

Thanks a lot for the feedback
I have actually been wondering if his height was not good enough but after seeing your comment am pleased now
Thanks a lot

TheLoanGuy:
Guy how far na? You no go update us with pictures again?

Man I have been too busy with work lately that I even forgot to check back here but I got some pictures I took today

He’s getting really big to the extent that I can’t carry him with one hand again as you can see in the second picture

Then the third picture clearly shows that, he is losing his puppy fur already. He only has some of the puppy fur around his neck and ears and some other parts of his body are still changing

He is growing pretty well to my observation but I would love to know what you think about his growth

He should be around 4 months now
Is his height and size good for that month or do we still have a lot of work to do. Please I need your feedback

I hope he is growing well to you guys, please rate him

But the puppy fine sha

kolokolobi:
They are absolutely cute puppies no doubt, but we can not be 100% sure they are showlines GSD until they are fully grown

You can be sure they are showline GSD before they are fully grown. The reason you can be sure is when you are sure they have come or bred from any of the showlines (American or West German)


@Eveezy put it out simply as bolded here
A Showline dog is a dog bred from a lineage of dogs bred for the show-ring. One can only tell a Showline dog through its pedigree. For a Puppy to be called a Showline, both parents should be showlines.

What you have copied and pasted are characteristics of the line which they generally conform to.

You are right about this, I was wrong when I said we have to wait for the puppies to be fully grown. The best way to know that the puppies are showline is when the parents are showline GSD as well, it’s that simple

They are absolutely cute puppies no doubt, but we can not be 100% sure they are showlines GSD until they are fully grown

This is the meaning of a showline GSD below
“In general, show line German Shepherds have lower prey drives, larger and thinner bodies, and more uniform coats than their working line counterparts. They also tend to be friendlier and more well-suited to being kept as pets than the working line German Shepherd, which was never intended to be a pet.”

This is the meaning of working line GSD
Basically, working lines German Shepherds are bred and trained to work especially in law enforcement and military functions. The breeding process and training is so intensive to develop the dog's endurance to strengthen its survival rate and pain tolerance.

You can find pictures of showline and working line GSD below

I hope this helps people understand the difference between showline and working line German shepherds

This is based on my knowledge about this breed, I might actually be wrong who knows

Godoverevery:
The problem about this people in this country Is alot just follow bandwagon blindly.

We am very sure you don't know the meaning of showline.....so I will help you out.

They are showline because both parent are pet dogs, friendly and very calm.

Hope you can sleep well now.

FrostyButter:
You have a great dog. Dont mind those on the thread calling it ekuke... If you can link me with your brothers dog person, that would be awesome.

He has actually sold all the puppies already

TheCeasar:
Wanted to see his recent picture

We would love to see his recent pictures please

TheLoanGuy:
Good.

Right now he needs a lot of protein from animal sources (beef, chicken, fish etc) so he can grow well. Those sources are perfect for him, just try it and see how well he'll grow.

Yes sir
We have actually been feeding him the canned food ( optimax) for a while now

TheLoanGuy:
You have to treat him like a GSD if you want him to reach his full potential, you'll have to experiment and that means you go spend money. Try things like, fish head, chicken leg, if you have a place where they sell frozen foods with lots of customers, you can buy chicken bumbum from them, it's cheaper, cook and dice it, mix it with cooked rice without salt for him.

Or you can get canned puppy food for him.

Thanks a lot for the advice
These are things we would definitely try on him

Remag666:
OP I meant no disrespect really sorry if my comment offended you.
@the bolded...how would you rate his aggression on a scale of 1-10
I really like aggressive shepherds and most mixed breed I've seen are usually shy don't know why

On a scale of 1-10 for aggressiveness, he is a 100% 10

Even our neighbor’s 7 months old Boerboel knows her place when she sees our Zeus

I wish I can upload videos of him barking at strangers

Haroldjunior:
That’s a fine German shepherd dog, leave all these haters that will all keep mute when the dog eventually turns great in the future... just keep this thread updated so that they’d keep their sense up to date.

Thanks a lot man
I promise to keep updating this trend with with more pics of him in the future

Remag666:
Don't take it personal.
It's not even about the price just take a look at the fur of that dog it's absolutely not a German shepherd
I understand where you're coming from I'm not trying to mock the dog or anything but if we're being truthful that dog up there that's rubbish mixture.
I hate it when people mix gsds with local dogs they usually produce dumb puppies I bet that ekuke would run if it sees a stranger at night something a real gsd would never do
I laff when you say I know nothing about purity of german shepherds dude we've had over 20 thoroughbred German shepherds since I was born up until now so I don't what you can possibly tell me about gsd that I don't already know
Educate yourself on German shepherd pure breeds not all these nonsense mixture you people are calling gsd.

You wrong about him not being able to bark at strangers. Zeus have been barking at strangers since he was 4 weeks old and his courage is one of the best I have ever seen in a German shepherd puppy
And they are other GSD with even longer fur than he has. You can go online to search for long coats GSD
Not that am saying anything bad about your Bruno but he looks less like the traditional German Shepard dog that everyone knows
That’s the fact man

This is a picture of him at 3 weeks old

More pics of Zeus
He is a very picky eater that’s why he looks a bit skinny

Haroldjunior:
Hian! Which one be “too hairy” again? Shey una go just come here dey talk for people posts when una no even know anything about the breed sef.

This one weak me too
Most people don’t know about this breed but just want to say rubbish

TheLoanGuy:
This is a pure breed GSD, don't mind the people telling you it's mixed. It's not everyone that breeds dog for money.

Some of the "pure breed" GSD pups advertised by some breeders here no even dey quality reach this one.

Yeah, I’m sure he would grow up to become a great stud
I'll keep updating this thread with more pics in the future.

Namdeenero:
Lol, so if a dog is cheap it’s a mutt??

OP your dog is a very good German Shepherd dog if at 3 months it looks like this.

Congratulations

Thanks
These are more pictures of him
Age: 3 months and 9 days

Stallionhorse:
Too hairy for a full breed German shepherd ..
I think its mixed with local breed

He is a medium coat GSD
You can go online to check the different coats in GSD

Thanks. We still love him no matter what people say
And we asked the guy we bought him from and he assured us that he didn’t mix the breed with a local dog

Patented:
Looks like a great dog. I really think it's cheap. It's hard to find a pure breed German shepherd in Nigeria but this is a good looking specimen. Nobody will sell a pure breed that cheap except they don't know what they have.

Guys please what breed of dog is this?

My brother bought this GSD pupupy from a guy that lives in the same area as us.
He bought the puppy for just 30,000 naira and anytime we tell people the price we got the puppy they would say it’s that cheap because it’s a mix breed so please is it a purebred or a mix

He is just 3 months old
Name: Zeus
