Tell us about yourself: I adopted Luca from the SPCA about five years ago. At the time, they said he was ten months old. He shows signs of abuse/neglect, seems to be afraid/defensive with children, but I love him dearly. He is a sweet, gentle soul and I have tried my best to give him a stable, loving home.

Is Luca a Dutchie?

Post by stellastarbright »

Luca lives in Cincinnati, Ohio. We rescued him when he was ten months old. I have never been sure of his breed. Do you think he could be a Dutchie?

Hi, I'm in Cincinnati, also. Have you ever been to Queen City Dog Training Club?

I'm having a hard time seeing the photos. Looks like he has brindle on his legs and a big DS tongue. :) If the sun ever comes out again, take some photos outside in the daylight.

Tell us about yourself: Had a GSD, am getting a DS puppy in a few weeks. Compete in agility, obedience, and cross train in tons of stuff. Found out about this site from the DS Rescue yahoo list.

Yeah, the photos aren't very clear, but I"m seeing a lot of GSD in the head and coat length. Doesn't mean there's not some DS in there! Nice looking dog!
