The Blue German Shepherd - [ Ссылка ]
Welcome back to Anything German Shepherd!
Today we’re going to take a look at the beautiful Blue German Shepherd.
A blue German shepherd is a one-color variation of the German Shepherd breed. Unlike the traditional German Shepherd coat pattern of beige and brown, the blue variation has a dark blue or grey color to their coat.
Their coats aren’t always one solid color; however. There are three variations of the coats, including blue and beige, blue and sable, and blue and black, and blue German Shepherds also have blue eyes.
Blue German Shepherds are incredibly sought after due to their uncommon looks. To the untrained eye, they might look black or dark grey, but when the light hits their coat in the right way you can see their blue undertones.
Blue German Shepherds are very rare dogs because they’re only born through a few distinct genetics, and their rarity means that you’ll need to spend a little more on them than you would for a beige and brown German Shepherd.
You might also have to be put on a waiting list before you can meet your new puppy.
The blue German Shepherd is rare because its color is determined by its genetics as two genes determine their coat color and pattern. The blue German Shepherd needs to inherit the double blue recessive gene or two liver recessive genes.
There’s no telling how likely a dog is going to inherit these genes, but it’s definitely less common than the dominant genes of beige and brown colorings. In fact, when blue German Shepherds are bred, it’s not guaranteed that all of the offspring will be blue as well.
Due to the rarity of blue German Shepherds, you can expect to pay more for them than you would for a common German Shepherd, and as always, when choosing a breeder, make sure they’re reputable and trusted.
While you might get a slightly lower price with an unverified breeder, they shouldn’t be trusted and you might find that your dog suffers from health issues later on in life.
With reputable breeders, the cost of a blue German Shepherd will often be at least $1500. The American German Shepherd Rescue Association has a number of listed rescue centers that have GSDs available for adoption, and there’s also a way to refine your search for blue German Shepherds.
Blue German Shepherds aren’t considered aggressive as long as they’ve been properly trained and socialized from a young age. This is unfortunately a common misconception that German Shepherds are aggressive because they’re often associated with police and military dogs, which can act aggressively when prompted to.
German Shepherds are rather easy to train and you can teach them commands such as ‘quiet’ and ‘recall’ to ensure that you remain in control if your blue German Shepherd begins to exhibit signs of aggression.
