Hello ladies and gents. Thought I'd post a quick hello as I've been browsing around extensively the last couple weeks.
Condensed intro would be, I'm Jo, this is my first GSD, I'm female, I'm from Ontario, Canada and a certified "must love dogs" kind of dog lover. No kids, just dogs- I like it that way.
I grew up with rottweilers and have had nothing but rotties for the last 15 years, having shared my adult life with 4 of them. My pack of two went down to one two years ago when my female past at 13 (old for a rott), then this past spring my boy past rather suddenly at 10. Both were rescues.
Last fall I started looking into getting another dog (one dog just isn't enough hair, apparently) and started leaning towards going with a GSD. Didn't happen, for no real reason.
After having an empty house, I picked up a 6mth old female GSD. Absolute doll. She's been hilarious and quite the addition to my home. There's been some noticeable differences between raising a GSD v. raising a rottweiler but I'm loving it so far!
Looking forward to reading more and more info around the forums.
