A neighbor found this good boy roaming a nearby neighborhood. We're actively looking for the owners but I'm prepared to keep him if they aren't found. Seems only a couple months old and very thin.
Looks like a full-blooded GSD to me but I'm no expert. Your thoughts?

Damn good looking dog. Soft intelligent eyes. If you can't find the owner, and don't keep him, I'll come and get him.

I wouldn't be surprised if one got away from an unprepared new owner. Or they just let him wander off because they didn't realize how much work they are. |

That is a GSD, and young enough that he hasn't hasn't had his 1st color change yet. GSDs will typically change coloration a few times in the first 2 years. |

That is a good looking pup regardless of the breed he turns out to be. I would make some one describe him and prove he was theirs before just handing him to a stranger.

We won't be too vigilant looking for the previous owner, this was attached to his collar when we found him, plus he was skin & bones.
 He's adjusting well.

Do the suggested DNA test to confirm what he is. But damn sure looks like a Maligator to me. I have 2 of the little loveable demons. If you are going to keep him. Just make sure you know what you're in for training wise and what to expect. They can be challenging to say the least.

Whelp I'm no vet. "Buddy" is a girl. So the Mrs stopped for an appropriate collar on their way home. Otherwise the Mal formerly known as Buddy is healthy. 18 lbs and the vet estimates 12-weeks old.

Week one and she's quite a handful. We've had to "puppy proof" our house. Nothing is safe from her shark mouth. About three times a day she gets an adrenaline dump and goes wild. She is very smart and pretends to not understand the word "no."
On the other hand, she's gorgeous and athletic and always underfoot. Clearly Mrs Diggerwolf is her favorite and Bella follows my wife everywhere. She eats a lot but she was very skinny and growing fast so we feed her a lot.

Bella is growing and learning fast. She's learning from her new pack. Fleas, ticks, and worms all gone. She's actually more chill than I expected. She discovered swimming and loves our pond. Her fur is getting darker. I'm beginning to think she's a GSD like others have suggested but we haven't done the Embark yet. Thanks for asking!
 This was interesting:  ETA: she has the longest tail I've ever seen on a dog! |
