If you’re curious about your puppy’s future size, here’s a helpful hint: check their paws!
While it might seem like an old wives’ tale, the size of your puppy’s paws can actually provide a pretty reliable clue about how large they will grow to be.
Nevertheless, today’s tale illustrates that this method isn’t infallible.
A Unique Pup

When a loving family welcomed an adorable German Shepherd named Georgia into their home, they imagined that in a few months, they’d have a large, energetic dog racing through the house.
However, as days passed, the only thing that grew were her paws.

The family, seeking guidance from others, was told that they just needed to wait a few more weeks for Georgia to grow into a full-fledged German Shepherd.
Weeks morphed into months, but this little pup decided to remain… well… little.

The Mystery Unveiled
After conducting some research, the family finally revealed the truth about their one-of-a-kind furry friend.
Georgia was actually a mix of German Shepherd and Corgi – she inherited the appearance of a German Shepherd but carried the size traits of a Corgi.

Choosing not to keep their unique pup a secret, her owner took to TikTok to share her undeniable cuteness with everyone.
It came as no surprise that the video quickly went viral, with the internet completely smitten!
Many amazed viewers jumped into the comments to express how they believed they had the perfect scenario – a dog that remains a puppy eternally:
Omgggg a Shepherd that looks like a puppy forever.
One commenter voiced what everyone was thinking:
That’s a win. Most Shepherd owners wish their dogs would stay puppies their entire lives; well, you achieved that. He’s all kinds of awesome.
Another clever individual came up with a fun name for this delightful mix:
It’s a shorgi!

Regardless of whether she would have grown to be the size of a German Shepherd or remained a puppy-like companion forever, one thing is clear — Georgia is cherished!
