    Half dog, half frog.

    We should be aware a lot of German Shepherds suffer in later life just because esthetics. A lot won’t be doing any of this later in life, they will be crawling on their front legs just for the esthetics breeders want.

      This looks like a working line GSD. It’s hard to tell from the video, but I can’t see much, if any, slope on its back.

      If you want a GSD, make sure you use a reputable breeder and avoid show line dogs. Genetic screening and meeting the parents will give you some peace of mind about the health of your pup.
