Greetings from Poland :)

Post by Rauni »

Hi everybody,

My name is Olga, I live in Wrocław, Poland, with my husband, kid and 4 dogs: 9,5 cocker spaniel Sunday, 7 y.o. Pyrenean Shepherd Vigo, 3,5 y.o. shorthaired Dutch Shepherd Eri and almost 3 y.o. Pyrenean Shepherd Brava. We train agility and a bit of frisbee.
Eri was supposed to be my husband's dog for schutzhund, but somehow she ended as my agility dog, she is in LA3 class now (that's the highest class according to FCI rules) and just lacks one leg to becoming Polish Agility Champion :).

I'm glad that I've finally found a forum about DS that is in language that I can speak :).

Photos and videos will follow soon :).

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.

Thank you all for nice welcome, the forum is really interesting I just hope I find the time to follow all the interesting topics :)

Hi Kamila, of course I remember you :) Do you know there is a litter of DS planned in Poland for spring 2012 8-) and another one after Eri's sister in Czech Republic :).
Very nice looking "gang" (the 2nd from the right is the gang leader?)
I AM the gang leader ;). As for my dogs, it's really difficult to tell who is the alpha dog amongst them, I don't actually think is so simple and linear as some people would like to see it. For instance, Brava wins all the balls :) and Sunday always has the best spot on the couch and Vigo tries to discipline everybody, but apart from Eri, noone really cares (and even Eri cares less as she gets older ;)).

Now for some bragging - agility videos of Eri:

Welcome Olga! And Eri and the rest of the canine crew. Eri is stunning!! Those action shots are absolutely great. I find it fascinating that this forum has expanded all across the world encompassing a spectrum of DS lovers! Please keep the photos coming and all that Eri is doing.

I just watched the videos. Can Eri come live with me?!? What a fun dog!! :dssmile: She is delightful. But I do realize that you put much time into training her. I've just gotten into agility myself, self-teaching, as there arent any clubs or trainers locally. Fun all the same.

How did you teach Eri to back up through your legs during the frisbee routine?

Thanks for sharing.
