Day at the stream

Post by Dutchringgirl »

i need to bring my video, for some reason my phone wouldnt go into video mode. There is a great old mill that has a beautiful waterfall. I took the kids ( all 4) there today and played in the water. No way I was letting go of Sadie, she would float down the fall. There was one point where we walked up a bit and she stayed in, I could walk besids the water, she kept walking then **plunk* the whole body went down, the ground dropped away, she jumped up so surprised and jumped out. I was trying to get a picture of her sticking her head in but the phone cameras are too slow.

awww, they look like they are having alot of fun - your water babies!!
great shots!! my phone camera is really slow too, plus it takes terrible pictures - I know some phones take really good pics, but not mine.

They really match the landscaping.

Tell us about yourself: I adopted a Dutch Shepherd mix (without knowing what she was) from the SPCA here in Victoria BC and am now trying to learn everything I can about this breed. My husband and I work from home most of the time so I thought it was time to get a puppy! We have his 2 boys here half the time and we wanted a nice family dog.

Sugar looks like a miniature Dutch Shepherd with floppy ears, and has every ounce of DS traits in her little body!

I hope to learn from other DS owners and share doggy experiences.

Tell us about yourself: I am in New York State. Got my first DS about 14 years ago (more or less as a rescue- lost her in Nov.). After years of GSD's, and a few dogs of other breeds (Rotti/Beauceron/Ger. Shorthaired Pointer/ Yorkie and my current Jack Russell) I now have another DS, 4mo female, no name yet, tho I have a few in mind.
Also have a horse-old quarter horse mare-32.
Can't wait for all the snow to get gone! Spring is coming too slow this year!

Pretty spot for playing!
It looks like Sadie may have put on a bit of weight with the raw food, or maybe just maturing?
