Well, wish us great fortune, please. We are getting a new puppy this week. This time we are getting a German Shepard. I sure hope this one is a better fit than the last one we had...That was a horrible experience. Will put up the pics as soon as we get her.
Congratulations! I can't wait to see her! I have had German Shepherds and love the breed. The dog I have now is only half Shepherd, but the next one will be a Shepherd again. Enjoy her
My brother has a German Shepherd also Carolyn and it's a big, lovable beast. Good luck with your new one!
Oh, splendid. I can't wait to see her. Frank, I have met some of the German Shepherds that were "big, lovable beast". I love to see that. Barb in Pa.
Thanks. Friday is Caity's birthday and will get her either today or friday , whichever works for them.
Carolyn, one of the joys of a puppy is that it is a puppy, and you can train it from the very beginning. German Shepherds are a wonderful breed--sturdy, loyal, fun-loving, and easy keepers. I can hardly wait to see the pictures of your new family member. Cathy sure is lucky to get such a wonderful birthday gift!
How exciting! Mom had one when we were growing up. I don't think you could ask for a more loyal companion. Mom's dog Casey was a black one, I think they actually called her "German Police" been so long I don't remember
Thanks all for the encouragement. After the last dog I am very hesitant to get excited over her. I hope she grows on me. The female she is out of is not a large dog, I have no idea what the male dog looks like. I did go see her Monday night and she is the "typical" looking german shepard. She is the last of a litter of 11 puppies and I am still thinking "do I want to do this?" but, for my daughter, I will. See how long I took to even think about it? the $$$ was an issue, too. So when they have 11 to get rid of the cost starts dropping the longer you keep them...a blessing for me.
Oh,you lucky lady! A new puppy!I love German Shepherds & had we found 1 at the local shelter would have one.We have always had Dobermans.They are lovable dogs like Shepherds.Our present dog is a lab,doberman mix.Her name is KD.I call her Katy which is similar to yours' name. sewNsow
Another shephard lover here, we had a wonderful GS named Duchess when I was a teen. She was my pal. Good luck with yours, do you have an idea on names yet?
