Time for a walk

Post by Marjolein »

Since business is slow at the garden center, I had a day off today. So we had some extra time to go for a walk, with the rain we've had this month, it's wet everywhere, and that is just what a brindled-water-loving-beast needs :cool:

Image
yay! Run!!! I know where the water is, this way!!

Image
the swamp-Ivil...

Image
DS's are known for their instincts to always follow a trail/path :mrgreen:

Image
2 happy faces

Image
Ivil is in heat (first week) so she's putting up some flags for the dudes in the area :roll:

Image
"What? You never know who might pass...could be the man of my life" :angel:

Image
and I finally got a pic of them together, and both are in focus 8-) It's my new desktop pic :)

Image
if you look closer: simultaneous :dsrazz: :shock: the little stinkers!! :evil:

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!

Lovely, wet, striped, beasties!
Ivil is too funny marking the little weeds! One of my GSD bitches use to do that.

nice shots!! I love the shot of them running together - you called it 2 happy faces, but if someone saw those faces running toward them I don't think they would think it was happy faces :lol: To me, they look fierce.

Standing together you can really see how much bigger he is than her. Beautiful dogs!!

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.

Great shots of them! Looks like so much fun!

I've had it for a little while, but I always use it on "automatic" :D
I think that taking a class will A- get me out of the house. B- give me an excuse and accountability to take pictures of my kids!

get OFF the automatic! Try the AV position, and set the F to 5.6 (read the manual) f5.6 is the best for dog action pics!

I'm already looking forward to you huge amount of pics in the near future :whistle: :D

Tell us about yourself: 40 something mom of 3 sons, 2 living....mother of one beagle girl, Puddles age 9 and our yet to be determined "shepherd" type girl Beta, age 2. Beta was rescued from an area no-kill shelter and was assumed to be a GSD/Greyhound mix, perhaps? I sure cannot find anything greyhound about the girl, sought out Brindle Shepherds and came across the DS, and began to wonder.....she is the absolute best dog anyone could want.

Absolutely stunning pics of your two! I LOVE all of them, of course, but especially of the 2 of them side by side!

On a side note, I am always amazed by Beta's ability to keenly follow a path/trail, without deviating like my naughty Beagles tend to do. :roll:

We took ours hiking and swimming today, even though it didn't even reach 50 F., they don't seem to care one bit! Beta has this habit of going in the water, and promptly laying down.lol She is a great, powerful swimmer too, able to carry big logs across the river. Puddles does her own thing, just wading, lol

I was intrigued with Ivil "marking her territory", calling for the boys, lol Never saw that one before, :lol:

And the class just got canceled. So much for having a non-dog related activity. I'm thinking of taking my four-leggeds and joining the strawberry picking hippies who live below the radar. Maybe sleeping behind the waterfall will help.

Nice photos!

I have a female who runs over to any puddle she sees and has to spin around in it playing and getting muddy.
