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.

Tell us about yourself: I am in New York State. Got my first DS about 14 years ago (more or less as a rescue- lost her in Nov.). After years of GSD's, and a few dogs of other breeds (Rotti/Beauceron/Ger. Shorthaired Pointer/ Yorkie and my current Jack Russell) I now have another DS, 4mo female, no name yet, tho I have a few in mind.
Also have a horse-old quarter horse mare-32.
Can't wait for all the snow to get gone! Spring is coming too slow this year!

Your husband was nice enough to color coordinate his jacket to Odin, and you cut off his head!!! ;)

I love that last picture of Odin taking in everything. In his eyes you can see a new chapter starting. :)

We are both very happy and excited to finally have Odin arrive. The pictures we were given did not do him justice. He is already proving to be an amazing guy. I have no doubt the antics that are going to begin between Odin and Dakota will be very entertaining. The added bonus is all the cats have mysteriously gone quiet.

Very handsome! His markings and color, specially in his chest, remind me a lot of my Merlin. So happy for you all :) Can't wait to see more pictures of your adventures together :)
