Our sweet Ava tore her doggy ACL while on a walk. She had surgery over a month ago and the Dr seems to think she should be back to normal. I’m here to tell you she’s not and the way she acts I don’t think she will ever be. Poor thing is so lazy and depressed now. I hope she will show more improvement and be able to chase a ball again.

1st pic I took them to go train on a really hot day a couple weeks back, and of course they found some water to cool off in & I had no towels in the truck 
2nd pic my wife took of my buddy Grendel, it's my favorite in the 6 months we've had him. I'm in love with this little guy, he does everything 100%. Shit even snuggling is a dangerous activity, he'll hop up in bed put his forehead on yours then flop down on your face/chest and squirm around trying to get even closer somehow  . He really is the prototypical Mal, he acts & looks exactly like the AKC website description. Crazy on, absolutely adores his "pack", gets his feelings hurt if I'm too hard on him, learns things extremely quickly, will do ANYTHING to get a reward. What I'm most excited about though is doing bitework with him, he will not be intimidated or pushed around, he's totally fearless. Even at two months old, playing tug with him, I got directly over him (dominant position) on accident. Most dogs, shit even alot of legit working dogs at that age would be uncomfortable back down. Him? Nah, fuck that. He gets pissed and goes berserk fighting & growling. At 6 months now, playing tug is a full contact sport and I've got the cuts, bruises & ripped clothes to prove it.

Hey guys, locally to me to is a 6 year old retired police Mal. As I understand it he is current at home with his handler, but isn't doing well with retirement and the handlers young children.
He does also have arthritis in both hips, for what that information is worth They are looking for rescues/organizations that are experienced with working Mals, to help find a proper home for him were he can have a happy rest of his retirement. Do you guys have any recommendations on organizations to point them towards, or maybe we have working or retired handlers around here who would be interested in helping this guy out? I am going to cross post in GD, if I forget to check this thread okease shoot me a PM. Thanks guys |

There are no guarantees with pups, good breeders manage to achieve some level of consistency though. From what I understand, Petr uses dogs that still have decent herding genetics so they will tend to have the handler responsiveness, etc that accompanies herders. Of course they can still perform protection/bite work but it's not nessassarily their sole purpose in life. Since she's not currently breeding anything, that's the closest I can point you towards the breeder we purchased from. As you search for a pup, keep in mind that there will be lines with stronger herding temperaments, lines with high prey drive, lines with strong dominant so-called "aggression" tendencies, etc. Also, be aware that there is a heavy demand from LE for dogs with high hunt drive, so there are breeders who cater to the LE market prioritizing hunt drive. In broad, general terms, a Dutch Shepherd will be "protective", have stronger prey and herding drives than a GSD, etc. The balance and prioritizing of drives when breeding can make one DS quite different from another though. You sort of need to know what balance of drives you want then choose a breeder who produces that type of dog. |

Purple flowers are out in force in the mountains, so it's time for Cain's annual purple flower picture.
Now 5yrs old, 100lbs, and thinks he's really good at fly fishing. 
He watches the line and fly and tries to be there to grab any fish still dumb enough to be in the pool, and really dumb enough to hit the fly.

Well just recently decided it was time to get another GSD. My pup is 11 in December and I've read quite a bit about a senior dog having a younger dog around helps extend their life expectancy a bit. He is doing fantastic would never know he is 11, but you can tell he definitely tires out a bit faster than usual, but still looks and moves like a young dog.
This is Mia, she is a 4 months old, will be picking her up in about 7 weeks. 
 And here is my 11 year old. 
 After having the most perfect imaginable dog for the past 9 years, I'm not sure if I'm that excited for this first year lol. |

We'll be picking up my new dog this September, another working GSD. I got this pic from the breeder last week, when the litter was 2 weeks old. There were only 3 in the litter, so they are large for their age.

My little gal is going off for a couple weeks of "reform school." Intensive basic foundation work/social & distraction training with a training group we've used before.
She looks awfully innocent in her 6 month picture for a puppy that's trashed some furniture & carpet.

Our GSD is super mothering & the Mals protective. They’re both still adjusting to the crying, they were devastated for days when we brought him home. “Little human is upset and I don’t know why?!?” There really is no finer dog than a well trained Shepherd. |
