Ours too - what gives there?

Is that like cats who love to gnaw on crinkly cellophane type stuff? Can't let ours anywhere NEAR an easter basket . .

Shephards are truly lovely animals! My big guy is a sable and I have to say with my husband working night shifts I don't know if I would sleep well if Ka-zar weren't in the house! As it is he alerts me when a car dares to turn into our neighborhood (thankfully he keeps it to a low key bark/snuffle). A mite bit protective (especially with men!) but he's simply the best with our family,friends and most importantly our kids. He puts up with a lot and we love him!

All beautiful shots guys! I love shepards, we get quite a few into the Humane Society and one of my boss man's favorite breeds. (he used to breed them). We are always very particular on where they are re~homed. Home checks the whole deal.
Have any of you ever seen a Dutch Shepard. I absolutely love the Dutch's.

We have a cat that eats tinsel and those cheezy white cotton tree skirts with the sparkles on them... I mean he'll lay there and literally EAT the skirt until someone stops him.

As for german shephards, I want one someday. I've only ever had a yellow lab, a boxer (recently moved out with my sister), and currently a jack russel mix (anybody want a free dog?) Shephards are beatiful dogs, and intelligent! My favorite dog tied with the lab.

^^ HAHAHA! Funny story, my hubby told me once about one of his cats that ate tinsel from the Christmas tree and eventually half of it was hanging out the cat's bum... he ended up having to step on the end that was out and scare the cat so it ran away, leaving the tinsel behind. Yeowch!

That's hilarious that someone else's Shepherd eats tissue. I really have no idea WHAT is up with that. It'd be fine if he'd eat it all, but he leaves little shreds of it all over the place and it drives me insane. But hey, shreds of tissue are so minor compared to what other dogs I know do, so I don't complain too much.

Same with that easter grass!

Talk about high fiber . .

Actually watch the tinsel eating. Our female cat did that when she was young and our vet cautioned that it could in fact rip her insides up so we just stopped using it completely.

No worries. We have no cats now, cats are evil! I don't need drama and attitude from my animals, so I'll stick to dogs and the cold-blooded, thanks. :)

Aw, I want a shepherd someday. That, or a dobey.
My mom has a shepherd mix female. She got her from the SPCA a few years ago, after her former owner passed away. She has so many quirks; if she ever does something wrong, she'll sit there and look up at you while raising her paw. I don't know what she's mixed with, but her ears don't stick up.
