Hi;
I recently joined this board and look forward to discussing DS's. Mine just passed away in Nov 2014 and my wife and I are looking to get another in the spring. She was the best dog I've ever had the pleasure of being with. She was 11.5 years old and died of cancer.

- Tell us about yourself: My beloved Dutchie passed away in Nov 2014. She was a special dog with amazing jumping and catching skills as well as an unbeatable drive. She won the eastern Ontario Disc Dog in her prime (2007?) with (unbeknownst to us) a torn ACL that required TPLO surgery. Looking forward to our next.

- Tell us about yourself: I live in Metro-West Boston with my husband and our rescued Dutch Shepherd, Minnie. She loves anything involving activity. Our first rescued DS, Kaya, loved to tug. Our second rescued DS (who actually turned out to be a GSDx), Marley, loved to nap. I volunteer for the North American Dutch Shepherd Rescue and am a member of the NADSR BOD.

Hi, Steve.
So sorry to hear about your girl's passing.
I also lost my DS to cancer (liver) at the end of September last year. We adopted her, but based on her age estimate back in 2006, she was just over 11.5 years old.

- Tell us about yourself: My name is Karen and I have a dutch shepherd, Xander, born 6/14/13. He is my second dutch shepherd. My first was Rawly. Even though Xander is my second I still have a lot to learn. That is why I'm here, to learn, get advice, and meet people who love these guys as much as I do.

So sorry for your loss. I lost my first ds last March to lymphoma. He was 9 1/2. I got my new boy in June. I just couldn't bear to live without one.
