Hi.

This is the first time ever I upload a dog breed. Well, actually this is the first time ever I upload something on Insimenator.net :D .

This dog is inspired by my beloved 4-legs-friend Syra, who passed away few days ago (may she rest in peace). The spreading of colors on the coat tries to reproduce Syra's hair colors.

Well, as many German Shepherds lovers, I was not satisfied with the Maxis German Shepherd.

In my humble opinion, the wrong thing was not much in the shape of the dog body, that needed only few adjustments (a little less wolf, and a bit more dog). The wrong thing was in the mix of colors.

Maxis German Shepherd has a base of cream coloured hair, with some spreads of black.

The real German Shepherd has a base of white hair (that is evident especially on the dog belly), that turns to cream, and shades into a sort of red brown, with huge spreads of black hair, especially upon the dog back and on its muzzle.

So it was not easy to reproduce this particular and unique mix of colors with Maxis tools. I think I got a good result, but I'm not completely satisfied.

I hope you'll enjoy this, and could this dog be a good life companion for your sims, as Syra was for me.

I'm sorry to hear about Syra; My thoughts & prayers are with you!

Thank you for the sim-Syra :) Im a shepard lover myself, and my white shepard, Sulduin, is at my side right now :) Sorry to hear that RL Syra passed away, that must hurt I know:) RIP Syra.

Nice Job

Thank you for sharing Syra with us.  My prayers are with you since I know  how hard it is to loose a pet no matter which kind.

So sorry to hear of your loss, rest assured that Syra will definately live on in my game, I know just the Sim...

I am sorry to hear about your loss.  As an animal lover myself I understand to lose your beloved pet is to lose a family member.  My thoughts and prayers are with you.  Thank you for sharing Syra with us.

Thank you, guys.

I'm glad you liked it.

Enjoy :) .

Oh I just love her! I am so sorry for your loss, our pets are so beloved and truly are a part of our families! Syra will be very spoiled in my game! Thank you!

Sad about your friend.
The one you created is very good.

She is lovely!!!!

Aw, I'm so sorry to hear about your dog... it can be so tough to lose a pet. But the sim version is very cute. :)

You never, really, loose your dog when it dies.  With most, if they were truly loyal to you, their spirit sticks by you and protects you, and some actually say that they feel that their beloved four-legged pals are still there with them, helping them through the tough times, and giving them inspiration and the will to go on another day.  This may sound silly, but, every now and then I feel like one of the dogs I had, that passed, is still watching me somehow.  My condolences for your loss.  Be brave and sooner or later, you may have another surprise bound into your life, one that is just as special as Syra, but is really her way of saying that she is still there, because she sent a protector your way to help you along until you meet again at the Rainbow Bridge.  I'm sorry if this sounds long-winded, but I just wanted to give you some hope that you'll soon be joined by another four-legged bundle of craziness.

I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I know how much it hurts to lose a pet, I've been crying so many tears for my passed loved ones. Your sim-Syra looks really good and shepherd-like, I'm definately going to download her to my game :).

Syra is sooo cute. I`m sorry about your dear dog Syra. It is hard to loose a pet because it belongs to the family as a familymember. You have done a really good job on making Syra. Thanks for sharing. I download now.
Best regards.

Syra is beautiful.  I love the way you did her colors.  I'm sorry for your loss.

Thank you so much for your beautiful Syra, I once had a beautiful Sarah a sable long hair german shepherd. I love and still miss her to this day

Syra, will have a lovely home. She is perfect. She is the most pretty dog I have seen.Thank you for her. I am sorry for your loss. Here is a hug. Thank you for sharing her with us. May she rest with the angels in the sky above. My your heart be eased with the pain you will feal. She will be with you in spirit She will always protect you.Bless be.

Thank you, guys. Your words moved me to tears.

Several days passed, but still I walk around home searching her where she used to squat and from where she looked at you with her deep dark eyes, that were fading to blindness because of her old age. And still we preserve steak bones for her: "That's for Syra... oh, damn, Syra isn't here anymore".

It won't be easy to realize that she'll be no more there, on the top of the stairs, raising her ears every now and then, and coming to me when I come back home, welcoming me with her cries and whinies.

But it's not the first time I lose a dog. And it's losing more than a friend. It's losing a family member, as someone said. A family member who loves you unconditionally, who gives you everything, without asking nothing back.

It will pass. I know time will heal, leaving a big scar inside. But time will heal. And nice memories is what will be left, while she rests forever in our garden, where she loved to run.

Take care of her.

Awww, i had a long haired German Shepard but i left her behind with my 'ex' step-dad when i moved, i miss her dearly. I'm sorry for your loss, but i'm sure Syra has gone to a better place. Rest in peace.

Your upload is beautiful! Such realistic fur patterns, thankyou for sharing.

Thanks!
