Could someone tell me what mix Asia is? I'm certain she's a German Shephard X, but what is she crossed with?
(ears normally stand upright, like in the second picture.)

Maybe a Husky x German Shepard
Or she might even be purebred GSD But Im no dog expert. She looks pretty.

I was thinking purebred but I thought there was no such thing as white GSDs?

There are white gsd's, actually called American White Shepherd, I think. She looks purebred to me.

I think that must me her. The temperment matches her exactly.

"Very intelligent, these dogs are easy to train and learn quickly. White Shepherds can be sensitive almost to the point of timidity."
She's really quite shy.

"To be truly happy, the German Shepherd needs a task in life."
What do you think she'd like? She doesn't play fetch or anything... but she loves to do things like run. Are there any toys she'd like?

Mine like buster cubes and things that they have to work to get treats out of. They also like kongs stuffed with yogurt and frozen. If they are bored and we can't get out b/c of the heat, they like car rides or a quick obedience session.

Definately looks like a purebred shepherd. Yes, they do come in white, we had one when I was little, jerk of a dad sold him to a guard dog company because he was too much of an inconvienence.

As far as I know they're just called white German Shepherds as the Shepherd people don't like them.

American White Shepherd....sorry, I just think they're a joke. It's still a German Shepherd Dog, just white colored (They're still breeding back to colored GSDs...)

I personally think your girl is a typical GSD x Lab (and quite pretty). The head doesn't say GSD to me at all, even with the ears up. It says Labrador to me.

Okay, now that I finally!!!!!!!!!!!!! got a picture of my Shepherd mix small enough to put on here........... This is Rio at 10 months. He's not a purebred, but looks it. He's got the Shepherd head, only thing that says he's no purebred is his size, he has white on his chin and chest, and he's got back dew claws.
