Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog / Labrador Retriever / Mixed (medium coat). Thelma is a very sweet young German Shepherd/Lab mix puppy who spends much of her time in contemplation. She is a thinker and can often be seen sitting, watching simply taking in her surroundings. That's the serious side of Thelma. However, there is a very playful, loving side of Thelma, as well. She loves to engage in romping and tussling with her littermates; playing tug of war with a stick or anything handy that may serve as the "prize". She has a great degree of calm about her, will sit still for photos, and will most likely be very easy to train. She wants to please. Thelma would do well in a home where her intelligent demeanor would be tapped and utilized to bring out the awesomeness that lies within this beauty. She would do very well with children to grow up with. A fenced yard is recommended in order to allow her to romp freely and play.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Sheprador, a popular crossbreed resulting from the union of a German Shepherd Dog and a Labrador Retriever, embodies many desirable traits from both parent breeds. Originating from designer breed efforts to combine the intelligence of the German Shepherd with the Labrador's friendly disposition, these dogs typically boast a medium to large build with a dense, weather-resistant coat that can range in color. Physically, they often exhibit the Shepherd’s strong bone structure and the Lab’s kind eyes. Temperamentally, Shepradors are generally intelligent, loyal, and trainable, making them excellent companions for active families. They thrive on human interaction and do best in homes with a yard, as their energy levels make apartment living challenging without significant daily exercise. While generally healthy, potential health considerations include hip and elbow dysplasia, common to both parent breeds, and eye conditions. Early socialization and consistent training are key to fostering a well-adjusted Sheprador.
