Post Your German Shepherds!

Just playing around on a rainy, freezing day. I was experimenting with lighting setups when Dana walked into the shot. I just turned the camera on her and shot. The red you see around her fur is from a slave flash with a red gel.

The second shot is Remy, my younger pup, doing what he does best: guarding the top of the stairs. He loves to lay up there and look down upon his humans.

There's another Remy...haha! So many Remies in this thread

I know! And I had never heard of the name before my wife suggested it for him. She said it was the name of the rat in the movie "Ratatouille".

Yeah, I'm lucky to have two very different versions. Dana is an "open coat" shepherd with long, soft fur. She only weighs in at 72lbs., which puts her at the light end of the GSD scale. Remy, on the other hand, has the shorter, sleek fur and weighs 150lbs.! Despite that, she is still the boss of him, and me for that matter.

I can't imagine 150lbs... my Zeus is about 82 lbs and a challenge to lift him for sure!

Yeah, there's no lifting Remy. Even the vet just crouches down to examine him. When you try to lift him, he puts his nose close to your face and gives you that "are you sure you want to try this, bud?", look that GSD's are so good at. If you insist on trying, he just sticks that long tongue out and starts licking your eyeballs until you give up. He licked the vet's glasses off his face once, and that was the last time he tried the lifting thing. Much easier to just come down to his level. It's really not that far, anyway.
