    First dog in our household



    We adopted her today. 1.5 year old female German Sheppard. Mellow but playful. I love this dog.

    BTW, her name was Cindy from the previous owner. We might keep it.

    congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    and just so you know... dogs learn their new name really quick... so if you want a different name, go for it!

    The name is up to my brother. He really wanted a male to name it Cliff. Now he can't think of a good female name.

    Oh she's lovely! Very nice ears! How's her obedience? Hard to believe anyone would give up such a lovely lady but glad they did and she's in a loving forever home now. Congrats.

    Awe, she is adorable. I think your post just goes to show; you dno't have to buy from a breeder to get a purebred dog. Adopting works too! Congrats on the new addition.

    Fantastic. She seems so well adapted and house broken. She needs a little work on commands, but she won't chew up anything she can get her teeth on, and only does business on grass. I have yet to hear one bark from her. Everytime we walk her we pass by neighboring dogs that bark and act tough. She just looks at them, then continues to walk and sniff around. She seems to have a thing for cars, though.

    Re: First dog in our household

    Awwww she's a sweet looking girl! I grew up with big pure white male GSD's and they can be a wonderful family dog if they know the rules well. Just always watch the weight so they don't tub out and put anymore extra strain on their hips. I had to laugh at her just looking at the other dogs being noisy and tough.
