Dutch Shepherd Forum

Hi everyone,

I wanted to introduce myself here, as my name and signature suggest I am a complete DS convert. My first interaction with these dogs came just a few mere months ago and it didn't take long for the breed and of course my pup to have my complete respect, and admiration. There is no doubt in my mind this is a breed that has the ability to reason, think and act accordingly. I am currently training my pup with hopes that both he and I can be a police dog team. He and I have bonded extremely well in the short time I've had him and have the respect of each other. (Something I've been told and seen for myself is an absolute necessity with this breed). I am a sponge for knowledge so any suggestions for readings, or resources (other than every post here...I got that part) would be great.

Hi Bryan, welcom !!

Umm. think and act accordingly??? Well see about that?

Hi Bryan, and welcome!

How old is your pup?

You'll have to be a little more specific about "any suggestions for readings, or resources," as that's pretty vague. From others, I've gleaned that stuff written about them tend to be in Dutch (if you're talking about books), so unless you happen to sprechen zie Dutch (go ahead and kill me, all you Dutch speakers who seem to hate German ), then you're gonna be out of luck there.

BTW, you do realize that the price of admission here is pictures?

Welcome and yes, lets see some pics!
