Xena says that if I mention her you will ALL know who I am.

She is a pretty good big sister, after all. She always has this goofy grin on her face.

We play all the time!

The good thing about my sister is she is always ready to play. The bad thing about her is that she is ALWAYS ready to play. Mom says that I am a energy level 2 compared to her 8.... That doesn't sound go to me, but it makes all the humans VERY happy??

We play tunnel a bunch!

My feet are already bigger than hers, by the way, and I am only 10 weeks old! Dad says I am a bruiser!

Oh of course they had to catch the ONE tiny cat nap I took... :roll:

Speaking of cats, our kitties like me already!

Xena says it is because she broke them in for me, but Mom says it is because I am much less wild than wild girl child.

I have learned a lot! I know how to sit and stay and speak and down and "out" and I walk pretty well on a leash too. (but I would rather just sniff). I can even "guard" a block in the yard. A am pretty ferocious!

All in all life is good!

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!

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.

Ohhh, so cute! I've been waiting for you to post more pics!

I really love the snuggle time one and the one of Thor being held like a baby. And of course your commentary through all the pics :lol:
