- Tell us about yourself: My name is Charlie, My girl Xena is a purebred DS pup that I purchased from Mose Hugghis in Topeka Kansas. Once I learned about the DS breed, I became obsessive. I love dogs and especially a DS. I know very little but hope to learn and train Xena to get the most out of her. I hope to one day have all the knowledge and skills that it takes to be a professional trainer, I am a student in need of mentors. I hope that my participation in this forum will help guide and shape me into the adept trainer that I hope to one day be
Salutations from Xena and family in Virginia
Hello, I would like to introduce myself. I am a proud new companion of 11 week old Xena. Pics will be coming soon! She was the last bitch of the litter from Mose Hugghis in Topeka Ks, He told me there was a forum so here I am! I hope to gain some buddies to share in my enthusiasm with this breed and definitely hope to gain some good advice and knowledge from the more seasoned DS lovers i may find here. I hope to someday be a successful canine trainer. Right now i am far from it, but hey, you have to start somewhere! I look forward to spending some time here in the forum as Xena and I grow together.

Welcome to the forum, Im rather new to the forum myself but this place is packed full of knowledgeable owners that can answer nearly any question imaginable.

- 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. - Location: Victoria BC

- Tell us about yourself: Artist, Mother, Equestrienne, Educator, Homesteader wannabe, dog-lover. Not counting my current DS, I have had 2 GSDs and 3 rescued mixed-breeds. All of these dogs were rescues, except for my childhood GSD, who was a gift from my parents when I was 7, and my current DS who I bartered artwork for from the breeder. Maiyou, one of my current dogs, is a Pitbull/New Guinea Singing Dog of 13 years old. Still very active and "Young" in nature. I now also have a DS named Mokume, (pronounced "Moh-koo-meh") or "Moko" for short. Newest member of our pack is Freyja, a random mixed hound I rescued during a horseback trip in the middle of a state forest.

Welcome! 
I'm a new Dutch Shepherd person, myself. I've had and worked with dogs most of my life but only just got my first DS about 5 weeks ago. (He's a male gold brindle pup, he'll be 18 weeks old tomorrow.)
I look forward to stories and pictures of your Xena!
(Nice typed attempt at a zaggarite, by the way, now if you can train HER to do that trill I'll really be impressed!
