This past weekend, I helped out the American Boerboel Club with several events.
On Saturday they had a herding trial and the ACAL (Amercian Certification of Aptitude to Work)
I entered K in all three levels, he passed them all with flying colors.
On Sunday they had the ATTS (American Temperment Test) I got to be the weird/aggressive stranger (suits me well LOL) Well at the end of the day I decided to put K in. He again passed with flying colors and one of the testers, who has Police K9's, came up to me at the end and congratulated me.. He was very impressed with K and I and told me I had the complete dog. He told me this is exactly what they look for in a dog, expecially one trained in protection, and that K had the perfect balance.
I am very proud of my boy

- Tell us about yourself: Dogs are my life, what can I say. GSDs primarily for nearly 50 years til bringing in my first DutchShep about 4 years ago. GSD rescue for 9 yrs, nearly 200 thru my home, rehabbed, adopted out. Been involved in AKC ob, herding, tracking, agility; Schutzhund-DVG; scent detection (HR-water)&narcotics, some patrol work. Mostly herding training at present on my little farm.
Re: Just a little brag
That is a real compliment. From what I read on working dog lists and forums, a 'complete' k9 is a novelty, very few and very far between. That says a lot about your ability as a trainer. Congrats!

- 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. - Location: Victoria BC

After years of GSD's, and a few dogs of other breeds (Rotti/Beauceron/Ger.
