- 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! - Location: Corinth, New York

- Tell us about yourself: Artist, Mother, Equestrienne, Educator, Homesteader wannabe, dog-lover. Not counting my current DS, I have had 2 GSDs and 3 rescued mixed-breeds. All of these dogs were rescues, except for my childhood GSD, who was a gift from my parents when I was 7, and my current DS who I bartered artwork for from the breeder. Maiyou, one of my current dogs, is a Pitbull/New Guinea Singing Dog of 13 years old. Still very active and "Young" in nature. I now also have a DS named Mokume, (pronounced "Moh-koo-meh") or "Moko" for short. Newest member of our pack is Freyja, a random mixed hound I rescued during a horseback trip in the middle of a state forest.

- Tell us about yourself: Howdy,
We are a family of rescues, (yeah, me included), in Southern California. My wife and I currently have two dogs, a Golden Retriever/ GSD mix by the name of Morgan, and our DS mix(?), Dinga Roo. We had never even heard of a Dutch Shepherd before until we were stalked by this nice lady in the pet store who asked us if Roo was a DS. Dang if that lady wasn't on to something. I just found this site, so here we are....

Re: Dog parks alert
Extreme vigilance is key when raising and protecting our loved ones that cannot protect themselves from the cruelty that exists in this world.
I recommend browsing over at Snopes http://www.snopes.com/critters/crusader/cheese.asp for the complete report on this issue. Though, there have been some cases reported, it does not appear to be the "epidemic" that the Facebook post makes it out to be.
Believe me, one incident of this type is more than should ever happen, but it is probably just as likely that a disgruntled or deranged neighbor might do something like this right in your backyard.
One final point. When you consider the absolute evil in reports like this, remember that there's also the thousands of rescue organizations and millions of owners who have decided to go the extra mile to care for dogs that someone else didn't want or couldn't take care of.

Re: Dog parks alert
All good points Michael. I volunteer with a rescue and to be sure...we see bad, but we also see lots of good.
