The Sheprador is a beautiful breed that has silky, wavy fur. Most of the time, this breed, has the face of a Labrador and the body of a Shepherd. The hair can be short. Some have the body of a Labrador with the colors of an Aussie.
The Sheprador is a great guard dog and can be very protective. They are loyal and watch mindfully over their owners. The Sheprador is a perky dog and loves to play and go for walks. They get along well with other dogs and species like cats and rabbits.
Shepradors vary in maintenance largely due to the variety of coat types and hair length. Some Shepradors share the coat of the Australian Shepherd purebreds and require more maintenance due to their coat length and the fineness of the individual hairs. Those with coats similar to Labradors generally require less maintenance due to the shortness of the hair, the thickness of the hairs and the near constant shedding in Spring and Fall.
If you're having problems training your dog or getting control, you should read our review of DogProblems.com. Adam will do whatever it takes to help you whip your dog into shape. I've used them to help with my Great Dane as well as help friends train their dogs. It's the first place I go to help answer users Questions. Many training issues are too extensive to answer in this forum, which is why I refer a lot of the load to his site.
Update: I've been using and recommending DogProblems for three years now. I, as well as my users, value the techniques we've learned. I get weekly emails from users who have become better owners from the information they received.
Smartest and most loyal dog. Adopted her from a shelter in 2005, we knew she was Lab (not pure bred ) her papers said Lab and Shepard. Didn't know that breed would become popular. We were looking for a Lab, and she's turned out to be one of the best dogs we've ever had. She was so easy to train because she just want's to please. We love her more than life its self.

Smartest and one of the best dogs I ever owned, the other was a Pomeagle. This dog is the best behaved , and it didnt take alot of work to get her there. She just want's to please. She is great with kids and other dogs, but cats not so lucky. I love this dog more than life itself. I should also say we found her as a pup in a pound thinking she was a Lab we knew not pure bred but not sure of other breed, until more research that is. I would for sure have another one, there is none other.

Description:
Ella has got to be the sweetest Sheprador known to this hybrid breed. I got her at 9 weeks and I must say, not only was she extremely hyper but she had never ending energy! She was a problem puppy at first. We actually took her to a dog trainer after 3 weeks of having her with us to see how to handle this type of breed. We found out that like most dogs, these specific dog are highly motivated by food and treats. If we wanted to train her to behave, we'd need to bribe her with food. So we did just that. Within a few days, she was the model puppy. We were stunned at how fast she learned and how many commands she able to retain!
We have 8 year old twins who adore her. Now at 5 months of age, we see that she's very protective over the kids as well as her parents.
Aside from my beloved pug who recently passed away, I have to say that this dog is the best. If trained correctly with LOTS of patience.. they can be the perfect dogs.
