——————————————————————————
The Blue Bay Shepherd was named for their origin in Palm Bay, Florida and the blue German Shepherd Dogs in their ancestry. The goal is to produce dogs that are wolf-like in appearance but easier to care for than wolfdogs. There are very few of these dogs on the ground currently, as the first puppies were born in March of 2011 to three pairs of foundation animals.
The history of the Blue Bay Shepherds dogs does contain wolf heritage, but they should be suitable for anyone with experience with dogs like the German Shepherd Dog. This breed has well-bred, low-drive, pet quality GSDs in their ancestry, so should not be overly protective, shy or sharp in temperament. Blue Bay Shepherds are intelligent and willing to please, catching on to training quickly. Given the opportunity, these dogs could excel in any working or training activities that do not require aggression. Temperament of a Blue Bay should be friendly and outgoing , this gregarious nature will extend also to strangers if well socialized with different people, animals and situations from puppyhood.
The Blue Bay is capable of sharing a home with smaller pets like cats if raised with them from an early age. However, they can be destructive when bored, so require plenty of exercise as well as appropriate activities to do when unsupervised.
Blue Bay Shepherds come in long, plush and shorter coat lengths as well as a variety of colors, but all will be shades of blue (diluted black pigment in skin, eyes and coat) in coloration. The available coat colors are solid blue, blue sable, as well as blue and tan. Future breedings may also produce whites masking blue, bluefawns, and blue platinums. Eyecolor at maturity should range in shades of light gray-green to gold in coloration. Young Blue Bay puppies have light blue eyes, this color will change to the adult coloration as they mature. Although the dilute gene can be problematic in some other breeds of dogs, it does not affect the health of

蓝湾牧羊犬是以他们的发源地佛罗里达棕榈湾及他们的祖先蓝色德国牧羊犬命名的。目标是创造一种狗具有狼的外表却比狼容易照顾的品种。现今这种狗极少，第一批小狗通过三对基础犬在2011年3月出生。
蓝湾牧羊犬的历史中包含了狼的传统，但对于饲养过德国牧羊犬的人来说，它们是相对合适的，这个品种容易饲养，较为温和，祖先之一的德国牧羊犬为人类伴侣，所以攻击性不会太强，性格害羞或灵敏。蓝湾牧羊犬非常聪明，愿意取悦人，能很快适应训练。只要给予机会，这些狗能胜任任何工作，按照要求做一些无攻击型的活动。蓝湾牧羊犬的脾气是友好的，如果从小狗时期就多与不同的人，动物，场景接触，这种合群的天性使它们能很快适应陌生人。如果从早期开始就将蓝湾牧羊犬与其他小宠物一起饲养，它们就能共处一室，比如猫。
蓝湾牧羊犬有长长的，漂亮的或是短短的皮毛，颜色多样，但都会有蓝色部位，就好比稀释的黑色颜料在皮肤，眼镜及毛色中，较常见的是单一的蓝色，蓝黑及蓝棕。将来可能还会繁殖在成熟期，拥有蓝色浅黄和蓝色银白的瞳色，皮毛由浅灰绿到金色。年幼的蓝色犬个体有淡蓝色的眼睛，这种颜色会在成熟期时发生转变。在其他物种中，虽然稀释的基因会引起问题，但这却不会影响蓝湾牧羊犬的健康，总体来说，这是一个健康的物种，对于某些想要大型友好聪明迷人且拥有狼外表的宠物的人来说是再合适不过的了。
