One of my pups is going to be a service dog. the lady from http://www.lads.org will be coming on sat to pick which ones gets to go. wooohoooo. iam so happy
Great going Dallas..I also contacted her and will see what she has to say..I will at some point have more German Shepherds and I want to give back also..Thanks for the info..
I meantion it to Colliemom and she helped me find one close to me. So thanks Colliemome
Also so if anyone else was thinking about this you can google dogs for service and there is a directory by state. I am sorry dont remember the name. But most of theses places need donations of any kind it you cant donate a pup. It takes a lot to raise one of these dogs, up to 12000.00, so they need all the help they can get.
Which do you prefer: the red goldens or the blondies?
I see the reddish/brownies are being diluted for more blondies....do you like this trend?
A lawyer I worked with hated the dilution. She specifically bought the reddish/brownies. She said the blondies looked like overweight cockers and she was very upset about the dilution.
Great info Dallas..I contacted the one that you gave a link elsewhere and finally she got back to me..she only wants labs and goldens..but gave me a link to another..I will google and see who might like shepherds..I sure would like to give back to my community any way I can..I will have high drive pups and I think they would do great for training..I really want to see if any police agencies are looking also...Ill let you know what I find..Thanks for the info..I know your excited...
My male is a dark golden very red, and my female is a light golden. I have to say i like my males coloring better. It has more depth to it and just shines better. My females coat has always looked flat and one dementional, where the males has so many tones to it. His coat and color just looks so much better.
Dallas..I can really see the color difference when they are side by side..I would have to vote for the deep red ones..my self..I like the really light labs though..but many times changing color changes other things too..so..I dont go just by color..But..cute dogs though...Dallas and thanks for the service dog info..
They lady for laddogs came and pick out her pup today. She pick on of the little girls, and the only boy was her secong pick. I told her if he didn't sell I would donate him aswell. And I get email updateds on how the pup is doing and and what the major donors have named her. Jennie the lady that heads up the program is real nice, she was here for about 1 1/2 hours, and told me a lot of stuff about the program and the dogs. I am really happy about how this all worked out. Wish her luck guys
I ve gotten a few pup updates. She is doing well after a few hours of crying in her creat. she has never been in one. And she has meet and play with many of the other dogs in training. They service lady thinks she will do really well and make the program. Iam couldnt be happier
