Hello from Virginia. I currently have a 3 year old female dutch named Ziva. I have been handleing and training dogs for 18 years. I cut my teeth on GSDs but as the saying goes, "If it ain't Dutch it ain't much." I love the Mals to.

Usually that happens when you Export the photo, can you see where you do that? It gives you the steps to downsize it. I have been using Picasa (free) and it really works well if you want to download that.

Haha, Cheryl at training still keeps calling turbo a boy, despite her pink collar and diminutive size. It's no biggie.

Ziva had her first pup at 10:00 a.m. had the second male at 5:00 p.m.! Looks like a long night with oxytocin! First pup was 15 oz. and pup number 2 was .88 oz..
