Tell us about yourself: Hello I am a working dog fan. I have been training dogs for 20 years as a hobby. I cut my teeth on GSD's and they will always have a special place in my heart. However I graduated to Mals and Dutchies because their temperament and drive standards were better suited for me as a handler/trainer. I have worked in SAR, FEMA, Protection, and detection. I currently have a 3 year old female Dutch named Ziva.

a blurry pic of Shylah playing tug-of-war with her new sister Shota (show ta) :D ...picked her up from a shelter at a nearby county...no idea what she is, her face looks dane-ish, but she's way too small, part blue lacy maybe?

You might see the weight drop off Shyla with a new pup.

More pics of the them are required...just so you know.

lol yeah, that was one of the reasons we had been looking for a second dog honestly...mostly because Shylah was kinda lonely, she'd go out back and toss around her own toys by herself...but also cus the exercise won't hurt her :lol:

I haven't really been able to get any good pics of the new pup yet, she never sits still! I picked her up Monday, and came home late(r) in the day, so really it's only her 3rd full day here, part of me wanted to wait a couple days, just to make sure they got along well and to really get a read on the pup's personality/behavior, make sure she was going to be a good fit

you can see Shylah laying like she always does with her legs frog-style

Image

Image

her forehead wrinkles when she looks at you, it's kinda cute lol

Usually, this amounts to a jinx. :lol:

Shylah looks more relaxed, more confident, and more sure of the situation (and of you?) in these latter photos than the first two you posted of her last November.

I love all your babies--cats, too.

I personally love how they're all almost twins - longer hair, short hair, white stripe on chest, roughly smallish height. Good luck with all the gang! Hope everyone has a blast and it's trouble free!!!

they're twins in personality too, we were joking before she left that her and I must be the same person cus we picked out the same dogs... Zuko and Shylah are both chill and just wanna hang out with their people... and Shota and Aria are both hyper and insane and like to run and smack each other with their paws

They look like kids during nap-time in kindergarten in the one shot. Glad you're not having any problems.
