Welcome and thank you from one DS rescuer to another! My rescue DS, Zip, is approaching 6 yrs old at an average weight of 58 lbs. Your Luna is such a striking pup. Here's wishing you many years of enjoyment with her!!

Tell us about yourself: New owner of 4 month old rescue dog. Shelter had her as a 'shepherd/boxer' mix, but she looks like 100% Dutch Shepherd!

Thank you GSDNanny, she really is quite striking. And to emphasize that point .... here's some more pics of my new girlfriend!
I like to think she's smiling about escaping the shelter and finding a cool new home!

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.

It's funny how they like to have some kind of "head support", i.e. pillow, squeaky racoon, etc. :whistle:

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!

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.
