This week my puppy will have his 8 month birthday.
His is a solid black plush coat German Shepherd.
He is already as tall as my 2 full grown female dogs and he is not done growing.
His name is Phantom and he is spoiled rotten. He is always happy and smiling even when he is getting yelled at. you can not do anything to calm him down. the other dogs even let him get away with so much. So now he thinks he can do anything he wants at anytime. And he usually does. My 13 year old dog is the only one he listens to.. when she growls at him he stops or stays away from her.. I tried growling, it doesn't work for me.
Yesterday he forced me to play ball in the house with him by bringing the ball and throwing at me on my pillow over and over until I threw it to get him away from me.. he's cute but can easily drive you nuts.
I love him anyway.

@ridingbet No, he is not. I do not want him neutered til after he is 2 years of age. it is healthier for them to have their hormones in the early stages of life.

@amitkokiladitya it is. especially at this age, when you can see how much they grow and change every week!

Pets are like children, they know how to wrap you around their finger 
A friend of mine had a pure black Shepard. Very unique!

Your puppy is really sweet. He is almost as big as an adult dog. During this growing up stage he will have lot of energy and he will need lot of exercise and activities to keep engaged.
