SHEPHERD APPRECIATION THREAD!!!!!!!!!!! ALL SHEPHERD BREEDS WELCOME!!!!!!!!!!

[ShrekDawg]

I know I already have an AUSSIE thread and there is a GSD thread floating around as well (that one is not mine LOL) BUT!!!!!!!!!! There are soooooooo many more wonderful shepherd breeds out there that I thought I would make a thread to include ALL of them!!!!!!!!!!! LOL so yeah… ANY AND ALL SHEPHERDS WELCOME INCLUDING MIXES OR BREEDS THAT ALREADY HAVE A THREAD!!!!!!

Kind of like how my Bully Breeds thread and my Retriever thread are for ALL bully breeds and ALL retrievers, etc. It’s like that but for SHEPHERDS! LOL

So yeah.

I’ll start by listing some but I am sure there are more.

Australian Shepherd, German Shepherd, Belgian Malinois (and really ALL Belgian Shepherds), Dutch Shepherds, crosses of those two (I think it’s called KNPV?), English Shepherds, even Anatolian Shepherds count, etc. LOL

So yeah.

I am SURE there are more breeds and feel free to share them.

My favorites are Aussies and GSD LOL

What are yours?

And go!

I think it’s called KNPV?

I thought KNVP was a Dutch dog sport? Two meanings?

Maybe two meanings for sure. It’s def also a bloodline. I’ve heard of it a lot on dogbook (dog FB).

This is what AI says

Ahh that’s interesting I had no idea!! I knew there were a ton of German Shepherd and malinois mixes used as police and sport dogs but I didn’t realize they had a fancy title.

They are VERY intense dogs LOL

And cool because you have the more level headed thoughtful side of the German shepherd and the crazy drive of the malinois

Actually, they’re usually mixed with Dutchies. Dutch Shepherds. Different than GSDs lol

BUT!!!!!!!!

There ARE also a lot of people that breed both GSD and Mal together for working purposes LOL

Just not KNPV.

But you are right to an extent.

But with the Dutchies and Mals, there is no more level headed side I feel like. It’s just pure DRIVE and ENERGY LOL they’re INSANE! Bahahahahaha especially Dutchies LOL but TOGETHER!? Dang.
