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.

Finally got some snow!

Post by Sugars Mom »

We finally got some snow this weekend; not where we lived but in the higher elevation parts of the city. The boys were soooo excited and we took them out to do some sledding. We stopped somewhere and they got out of the car to see if we found a good sledding spot and Sugar and I stayed in the car. Sugar started whining with excitement (she rarely whines) and really wanted out to play in the snow.

Here are some pics:

And most of the time her nose was too the ground. She loved it!!

I'm jealous! No snow in central VA so far this year...waaaaahhhh.

Did Sugar do that back scratching in the snow thing? My dogs always love to do that...kind of like making doggie snow angels :D

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!

Wish it was MY camera...I can't get an action shot that is clear to save my life! Always a blur. Her camera had a HUGE lens!
