Tell us about yourself: Artist, Mother, Equestrienne, Educator, Homesteader wannabe, dog-lover. Not counting my current DS, I have had 2 GSDs and 3 rescued mixed-breeds. All of these dogs were rescues, except for my childhood GSD, who was a gift from my parents when I was 7, and my current DS who I bartered artwork for from the breeder. Maiyou, one of my current dogs, is a Pitbull/New Guinea Singing Dog of 13 years old. Still very active and "Young" in nature. I now also have a DS named Mokume, (pronounced "Moh-koo-meh") or "Moko" for short. Newest member of our pack is Freyja, a random mixed hound I rescued during a horseback trip in the middle of a state forest.

*lol* So had to share a couple of cute photos.

Moko loves to be up on top of stuff, maybe Snoopy was onto something with always preferring to be on his doghouse rather than in it.

One is just sweet, after a long day of romping through snow, Moko and I had some snuggly-time, and my fiancee couldn't resist snapping a shot.

The one on the couch of the two dogs bears explaining. They're relaxing after a long romp, happily minding their own business and Moko is happily chewing on a bone, and wagging his tail periodically in playful contentment. Well, his tail keeps slapping Maiyou in the face as she's trying to nap on her end. So his tail will smack her and she'll bare her teeth in annoyance. This keeps happening multiple times until she finally gets to the point of making a sound to go along with the lip-curl, like "Will you QUIT that???!" Note, she doesn't bite him, or shift herself to avoid the tail, just loudly makes it clear he's doing something to irritate her, and he tips his head and then leans toward her to lick her on the nose, like "I don't get it... Why are you mad at me?" :lol:

And the one of the two of them in the yard, Maiyou's face was just too cute, poor martyred old lady...

Tell us about yourself: Hello everyone!

I enjoy my online anonymity. I'm open about most everything though many parts of my private life I prefer to keep private. If I’ve not offered particular areas of information it’s usually because I don’t feel it’s relevant to the situation. I tend to quietly monitor and observe, offering input when I feel I have something important to share and if I feel strongly about something. I don’t hesitate to ask questions if I don’t understand something, regardless of how it may appear to others that I might be a simpleton. Once I get started talking though, I tend to talk a lot, so you've been warned about that!

Please do not take this as anything more than what it is, a desire for privacy. I am not intending to offend or be rude.

Much Peace to all of you, naked and furry.

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.
