THANK YOU, ERIC!!
Eric, I am sure I am not alone in wanting to express my sincere thank-you for your efforts in initiating, coordinating, moderating, etc. this DS Forum. Those efforts do not go unnoticed and are appreciated more than you will know. I personally appreciate your willingness to accommodate our 'growth' and therefore the need for adjustments in the format and categories.
It is, by the way, Thanksgiving and for what you do for all of us, I am so thankful!!!

Just important are the moderators! Judith and Christie help out a bunch as well.
Although he is rather quiet on the board we also have Bob helping out. I may know somethings about computers....but Bob really knows the software that runs this forum VERY well!

- Tell us about yourself: I joined this forum to learn more about the breed. In the future I would like to do Search and Rescue work with a Dutch Shepherd. At this time I do have one dog (Eli, a Pit Bull mix) and a cat (Mauser).
In the past i've worked at various rescue organizations doing everything from grooming and washing dishes to rehoming, fostering, and training. I've helped dogs, cats, lizards, goats, a ferret, rodents, and even rattlesnakes on occasion.
I've also spent a year and a half working as a Veterinary Technician. I never went to school for it, just trained on the job-- which is why I am thinking about going to school to get my actual certificate. Dunno how life will go though!! Randomness happens :) - Location: California
Re: THANK YOU, ERIC!!
Also wanted to say Thanks! Very glad that this forum is around, and I hope it never goes away! Keep up the good work everyone...... ^_^
I would look at a dog and when our eyes met,
I realized that the dog and all creatures are
my family. They're just like you and me.

Re: THANK YOU, ERIC!!
I am a first timer, just joined your forum and just got my first Dutch about a month ago. I have trained lab's and bloodhounds for years but this is my first dutch. I got her out of North Florida. She is a 7 month old female. My old L.E. partner had a large male dutch many years ago but we lost him to cancer (the K9). I will try to do some pics later of her, but I have been reading your comments and posts for about an hour and I like what I read. We are in central Alabama. I am the president of a company that trains and donates to L.E. narcotics detection K9's. I look forward to learning more from you guys.
