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.

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.

it's kinda funny to me, but for his owners...
I remember going back to the breeder with Dingo when he was 10 months or so, expecting his mom to greet him like a human mom "where have you been! you look SO good!"
Instead he got the same treatment... the pups remember the place and mom as a "you can do whatever you want place" which it no longer is as they return, they have grown and need to keep their distance like an adult, that's where it usually goes wrong... Ivil actually bit him on the nose :? Poor guy, just a scratch, but now he nows...keep some distance...even to a familiar dog ;)

I would love to bring Boaz back to visit his "relatives", but I know there would be no purpose. I sometimes ask him about his "mama Nora", he doesn't care.

This is my favorite.

If Willow grew up with her pups, she was a doting Mother and NO ONE better mess with them. The one that came back after a year, well he got his but chewed for messing with the one that stayed home. Ironically, I raised Brass for 3 years before placing her on a police department. I joked that she was RIDICULOUSLY spoiled. And she was. If a door in front of her was only open 4 inches and she wanted through it, she would bark and Willow would come open it for her. :o It was pathetic really.

But now, its been 3 years and it doesn't matter how much time has passed, they are thrilled to see each other and romp and play. It's kinda cool!

When Sugar met up with her "sister" litter mate after almost a year, there was no reaction from either of them like they knew they were related or anything. Dogs are just not people - go figure!

It's not the same with all pups, depends on how they enter I guess. This one was a bit to pushy for Ivil. We also had pups come back here a bit older, about a year, they usually act better in that age, according to Ivil, she played with those like crazy. I also believe it is different when they stay for 1-2 years, and then leave. But if they leave at 8 weeks, and come back in the idiot stage of 5 months... :dsangry: mom is not amused :dssmile:

I'm the not-putting-enough-in-the-food-bowl-person, clean up, bring to kennel, give nasty de-worm medicine, take to vet, put on cold scale to weigh and, oh yeah, play a little person :roll:

Works a bit differently with only 1 person in the house, most times for the better as no one gets to step on your authority. I get love and hate equally!
