Hi, welcome!  Awww, I love Rembrandt's name!  I wonder if there are non-toxic, paw-safe paints that he could use to do paw print art, too?   ;) ;D  It would be a cute way to keep track (ha ha) of his paw size as he grows up.  If so, please post pics of his art!  I'd love that!

I'm mom to 3 kids, 3 dogs and our kitties.  Daisy is our big golden/yellow lab mix (she's as big as Sammy), Cassie & Sammy are our Great Pyrenees'.

First off let me say your pup is gorgeous.  I love shepherds!  Welcome to the site.  I'm Kat and my crew is listed below.

Next you can use tempura paints for paw prints along with charcoal to do paw prints that way also.  We use them at work to make animal prints from our animals.  I've even used them on a gila monster to "paint" with him.  It's non-toxic and water soluble too.

Yes his eyes are blue, and the amazing thing is that we think they'll stay that way. He is a mischief maker, especially when my sister's cat is around! Mind you, it goes both ways because the cat will sit on a table and push pens off onto Rembrandt's head. For the most part he's really good, when he starts to go crazy I go through our training routine.

oh my goodness WHAT A CUTIE!!!! I think he's the first GSD that i've seen with the ice blue eyes! Just a warning you'll probably have people thinking he's evil because of his ice blue eyes! lol We get that all the time with my dads dog Tikaani (Husky/shepard).

and I'd really love to see more pics of him! Welcome to the board!

Ohhhh, he is absolutely gorgeous and I love his eyes!  I'm looking forward to lots of pics of him and his art  ;) and your yard is beautiful, too.  BTW, the cat that teases him sounds like a cutie, too!   ;D  ;D

I do hope that "evil" comments are jokes???   :-\   Could anyone seriously think that???   :o  ???

The cat was funny the other day, he was playing with Rembrandt and decided he'd had enough so he went upstairs. A few minutes later...BOOM! The laundry basket comes crashing down the stairs! I think he doesn't like not being the center of attention! lol

His blue eye will either help or hinder, because Rembrandt is going to be my service dog. Hopefully they'll help.
