Dutch Shepherd Forum

7 months old already! We are still trying to figure out what exactly she is! She's such a good girl. I want to get some registration for her with AKC so she can compete in events. If she could get those ears up, I could possibly go for the ILP. At her age though, I don't think they'll suddenly stand up completely overnight. I'll probably just go for the Canine Partners. Here's a few pictures....what do you think? I just want to choose the proper registration for her.

I love those adoring eyes in the second picture. She looks very dutch, but Im betting she is mixed, but here is the key point, you are in love with her , she is definately a doll.

Those eyes!

she is so sweet looking !!!

AKC offers the Companion Animal program, so you can compete in performance events where CA is offered. Dutch Shepherds have only been recently accepted into the foundation stock of AKC, so it would be hard to ILP anyway. I would got eh CA route (I did that with my kids before they were recognized at all) and compete from there.

I registered Geyser in the CA program...I don't really care what they call her, as long as we can compete in the most active venue in our area.

That's what I thought too. I figure I'll just put in DS where they ask for breed mix. I just wanted to be sure I was choosing the right way. Never did this with my GSD. They didn't have CA then. Thanks!
