His mum is big standard poodle and his dad is more of a stocky gsd. I think he will be somewhere around gsd size. We are used to big dogs so that’s ok! There’s space in the van for him too 
Only if you think like the Kennel Club. To anyone else he's a gorgeous dog.
Gorgeous.
Yes we are aware but thanks for pointing it outHe’s a beauty.
I don’t know if your aware though, and pardon me for “teaching you to suck eggs” if you are. Something we were unaware of when we got our puppy Brynn. I’ve since made a point of telling folk.
How far to walk a puppy. (Even big ones)
A good rule of thumb is a ratio of five minutes exercise per month of age (up to twice a day) until the puppy is fully grown e.g. 15 minutes (up to twice a day) when 3 months old, 20 minutes when 4 months old and so on. Once they are fully grown, they can go out for much longer.
It it suposed to help save hips and knees in later years.
Lots on the internet about it.
It’s especially important with big dogs I think. Luckily he’s very laid back and likes playing with toys with us so we can channel his brain into other things than exercise
So cute
Yoshi met 2 cavapoo brothers yesterday and they were soon friends!
Roxy is a lovely dogWhat a beauty. I love first cross large breeds. We have Roxy, an american bulldog x dalmation, just cannot get a snazzy 'breed' name for this type of cross
I can’t think of any that sound good. Bulldal? my neighbour has a dalmation x Akita. if people ask what Yoshi is I usually just say German shepherd x poodle, but then people ask what the name is for that if I say Shepadoodle they want to know what that is!
I wish you'd tell our Minky, she's a nutter so it makes no difference if we take her out for exercise or not as she is like a whirlwind most of the time!He’s a beauty.

Amerbudal?What a beauty. I love first cross large breeds. We have Roxy, an american bulldog x dalmation, just cannot get a snazzy 'breed' name for this type of cross
We get "is he a cocker poo?", "no, he's a schnoodle" "what's that then?" Harry looks like a poodle except he's too long in the leg and he has the blunter nose of a Schnauzer, although nearly 7 he has the arms and legs of a teenager complete with sharp elbows!Roxy is a lovely dog
No one has guessed Yoshi’s mix correctly yet. Someone thought he was an old dog in the pub because of the silver hairs on his nose I don’t think I’ve seen a schnoodle yet, I don’t think there are too many about?
Yes, it will be interesting to see how his colour goes. His mum is a ‘blue’ colour poodle, his dad is a red sable german shepherd so we will wait and seeIt would be interesting to see if Yoshi changes colour as he grows, we had a Welsh Terrier who was black as a puppy but became brown as he grew into an adult. Harry has the white chin and splodge of white on the chest plus white hairs on the pads of two feet. He was one of a litter of 9, one was going to Bermuda so there are another 7 somewhere. He's the nicest dog we've had, very sweet and loving, doesn't bark as much as our terrier but does have a special bark with a little howl at the end
Nothing stubborn about Harry, and in fact my parents had always owned poodles and I don't remember any of them having a stubborn streak. Our first dog was a black standard schnauzer and so we felt that we knew both breeds which was one of the reasons for getting a schnoodle, and also because we didn't want a "poo". His worst trait is that he needs to be with me wherever I am, there's no privacy with Harry and he doesn't know the meaning of personal space, although he doesn't mind being shut into the kitchen at night with Poppy (Border Terrier).Yes, it will be interesting to see how his colour goes.

Harry is lovely, does he have the stubborn streak of a poodle? His bark sounds cute!
I’ve not had poodles before but I know they are renowned for being clever, a few said their poodles were stubborn at times. We’ve had German shepherds for years and they are also clever but laid back. I’d read that shepadoodles can suffer from separation anxiety but Yoshi likes his own space, when he’s asleep he like to go off to bed
Harry and Poppy sound like a great pair
This would be my understanding of the word ‘mongrel’ too. I think cross breeds/mongrels do tend to be tougher but I’m not sure on temperaments, depends on the cross of breeds I suppose. Yoshi thinks Pip would be a great playmate!
I agree with all of this. The love a dog can give is amazing.
