Facebook page.Hello to everyone. I certainly hope this finds you well. I, over the course of many months, have become greatly interested in this breed. They seem to have all qualities one would include if drawing up the diagram of the (near)perfect dog. I hope to learn more from those of you who know them best.

- 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.

Re: On board in Oklahoma
Welcome! So, when do you plan an addition to your family?? There have been some really beautiful dogs placed through rescue, if you're looking! Many of them are here in our group.
