SHOW ME your Shelter Dogs

[manther21]

Here is Abby (2yrs) and our newest member Parker. We just adopted him from a local shelter. Not sure if he is full GSD or not, but he sure is a sweetie

This is Lilly, she was 6 weeks old when we adopped her from the Stark County, Ohio Humane Society. She is 10 weeks and 15lbs in the photo.
I have never owned a GSD before, she is one of the smartest, sweetest little trouble maker I have raised (my last dog was a Rottweiler / Chow mix)

I need to get home and scan some photo's, All of my dogs came from shelters, side of the road, or took them from their owner, except Hunter, he was bought from a breeder.

Boofer was a Shepherd/Collie from Michigan Humane Society
Rock was a Shepherd/Lab mix, He was born blind, I found him in the middle of the road at 1:30 am. He had a choker coller on, tiewrapped together. The best guess was 4 months old when I found him.
Cedar was a Foxhound/Lab mix per the vet, The owner would shoot her with a BB gun when she didnt come, probably no different then hitting them with a shock collar, I dont know, I didnt like it, but I told them if they did it again, she was mine, I had Cedar..

Either you've never been shot with a BB gun or you've never felt the stim from an Ecollar at the level that you first perceive it, where all the basic work is done. Nearly universally people who feel this describe it as a "buzz, a tingle," or" a tap." Children giggle.

I've been shot by a BB gun. I hope never to repeat that experience. I test my Ecollars on myself every day before I put them on the dogs.

This is my baby girl Evaa. She was a rescue dog. And she's the smartest, bravest, and most loyal dog I've ever owned. I love her to death!!
