Letty Portraits

Post by k9katet »

Here are some portrait pics that I had taken of Letty in October when she was 4 months old. They were taken by a local photographer, Laurie Erickson. http://www.lauriejerickson.com/

Tell us about yourself: I have had a DS for almost a year. Gwen and I are considering participating in PSA and or possible Ring Sport. I also have a Great Dane. I have grown up around working GSDs and my last GSD was a working K9 officer. I am all about dogs and animals in general and want to learn as much as I can about training.

is she really only 4 months old? I can get Sadie to sit for me but she is still lanky and puppy looking, Letty is pretty solid.

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.

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.

LOL - I wanted to make sure I put that in there so I didn't get in trouble. :)

I think that pretty early on Letty just looked like a small dog. She hasn't really gone through any gangly lanky stages.

Here's a pic of Letty at 21 weeks. You can see her adult teeth coming in. I love this pic. It's nice to see so much green too. But I don't think she looks very puppish.

Very nice mask! And I do like the brindle pattern on so many of Ashely's pups. Good and gold. 8-)
