- Tell us about yourself: I am retired /Air Force. We love rescuing dogs and especially working with socially traumatized dogs. We have a fenced back yard and great town to walk the dogs as well. We love the outdoors such as hiking and back packing. I enjoy road biking at a serious level as well...250 miles each week. Our dutch Shepard is named Timber and is a rescue dog.
hi everyone from northern Virginia
We weren't looking for a Shepard this time around as our last loving wonderful German Shepard Henry died of a massive coronary last December while wagging his tail awaiting to be taken out. Alas, this brindle dog we were introduced to didn't sell himself well, but we've worked with traumatized dogs before so we decided to adopt Timber. We had no idea of the Dutch Shepard breed until we meet someone at a dog park that suggested it. Alas, another Shepard in our midst and we weren't even looking for one. Perhaps he isn't registered, and probably a mix since his tail curls upward, but the marking are distinct including the face. All that doesn't matter, we have a two year old loving caring and protective dog that is adjusting to other people and dogs very quickly. He's been with us for about 6 months and loves to run, play, and go on hikes.
He also is a great mate for our other dog that is a true rescue and wonderful pet.

Re: hi everyone from northern Virginia
That's how the best dogs are found. I wanted a Tervuren, my friend convinced me to look at a Malinois in a rescue foster home, and this Dutch Shepherd was being fostered there as well.
Welcome to the group! Pics would be awesome (although I can't expect too much, I haven't uploaded any yet either, one of these days I'll charge the camera)

Welcome N-VA person.
Would love to see pics of your dog, as well as a name for you
If you don't mind, you can create a signature in your profile so we don't have to keep wondering who is who again.
