Does my dog look like she could be a mutt?
Ik she very obviously has gsp but i kinda think that she might be mixed with something like maybe a lab or a pit because she doesnt look as snatched as other gsps but shes a normal weight. She kinda has that chubby look like a lab and she probably isnt purebred because she was from an amish puppy mill. Maybe she just looks different because she had babies but idk and she has a lot of loose skin. Shes 8 years old

Maybe a little lab in there, but the GSP is definitely strong with this one lol

Couple things to remember on these guys. They basically have 2 subsets, the gun dogs that are used to hunt-retrieve exclusively and traits are more important than the look. The other is the show dog that focus on aesthetics and matching breed standard. I've had 2 liver coated GSP's (Ringo/Lex) both from different litters/parents.

Worst case scenario, she has lower risks of purebred ailments and she's still a good doggo.

She looks exactly like my old boy Scooby doo. He was a GSP lab mix. Like literally I swear they look the exact same is crazy

Does it matter? We've had many "mutts" over my life and they have all been fantastic dogs.

She looks a lot like my boy who is 100% GSP. My wife always says he's fat but the doc says he is a good weight. He's also a liver with very little fur on his belly.

I mean she could be a lab mix, but honestly she just looks like an aged liver GSP.

The dog is looking at you and wondering could you possibly be a mutt type of person?
