Because of Odin

Post by felixone123 »

My Dakota girl (non DS) is very standoffish - not in the least affectionate - well, maybe a wee tiny bit, but she is the sweetest girl dog ever and Odin is the sweetest boy dog ever!!

ok - to the point - well, because of Odin and how he is a lover boy and so, so, so affectionate, Dakota at very rare times will be affectionate. She watches Odin all the time as he snuggles with us. Well, here are some pics that I captured in a very rare moment of Dakota. It's all because of Odin :love:

I just had to share, because I am still smiling from seeing her snuggle.

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.

Saweeeeeet! Dakota looks to have ACD so dont take it personal tho, ACDs (heelers) arent normally known for their outward affection. They tend to be more of an independent breed. This is nice!
