Dutch Shepherd Forum

Hello my name is Genna Bernard,
We bought our Dutch in November of last year, shortly after starting the payment process we found out we were pregnant. At the time we didn’t think it would be a problem but now that I’ve had the baby and I stay home, she is just so much to handle with a newborn. My husband used to train dogs in the navy when he was in the military so that was the main reason why we wanted her, he missed training dogs. He had every intention of training her and also taking her to work with him everyday, but this season with his work, he runs an asphalt plant, it has been very busy and she was never able to go to work with him. So, when he does get home from a 16+ hour day he doesn’t have energy to work with her. She’s a great dog, listens well and of course has a lot of energy. She needs to have something to do other than sit in the house with me and the baby! I feel bad for forcing her to be the dog she isn’t, if that makes sense.

She is house trained, knows sit, lay down and “out”. She is also kennel trained. She was spayed earlier this year and she is up to date on her shots. She is 11 months old and her name is Arya.

If you would like more details you can PM me!

Hi Genna,

I am looking for a Dutch Shepherd to adopt. Is your girl still available? She is beautiful! I understand that they are an active breed and I am looking for a family dog that can also do some hobby level obedience and agility dog sport. She seems perfect. We live in Nashville with a big fenced yard and lots of active outdoor activities.

Thanks,
Fené

Hello,

Where did you guys get her from? Is she good with your baby? We have two other Dutch shepherds, is she good around other dogs? Does she have dominant behavior? Sorry so many questions but we have a baby and would love to help out! Where are you guys located?

Thank you,
Kellie

The dog is in Moses Lake, WA.

I recommend a private message to get any specific questions answered and/or to get contact information.

I am happy to announce that this dog has a new home and was picked up yesterday morning.



Thank you to all that shared the information.
