Tell us about yourself: I'm a 22 year old part time student who recently got a dutch shepherd puppy who I would like to either do schutzhund with or possibly mondio ring with. He is about 5 months old and been so far trained purely using marker training without any corrections thus far. I am looking for some help with him as he is dog reactive when on leash, inside or in the car while driving.

Reactive pup no so reactive

I just wanted to update you all and thanks to everyone who gave me advice. We had a huge break through today, we were able to walk past a dog on the sidewalk. He looked at the other dog then looked back to me. :stickman: We had a huge celebration right there on the sidewalk, the lady with the dog who walked past I am sure though that I was a complete nut case with my joyful praising and jumping about with my pup. :balloons: I just needed to share this wonderful moment with you all. Hes not perfect yet but he is getting a little bit better every day. Now to keep working towards being ready to test for his BH at some point next year.

Tell us about yourself: I have had a DS for almost a year. Gwen and I are considering participating in PSA and or possible Ring Sport. I also have a Great Dane. I have grown up around working GSDs and my last GSD was a working K9 officer. I am all about dogs and animals in general and want to learn as much as I can about training.

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.
