I am getting a new German Shepherd Pup..
| Fri, 11-18-2005 - 7:50pm |
As some of you know. I had a German Shephers puppy to help ease my fears when I am home alone and during the night etc.
Well, she passed away about 4 years ago. I was so heart broken I could not get another one until now.
He is a Male AKC 3 months old and we go to pick him up tonight when Sheila gets home from work. He will be my therapy dog sort of. Go with me in the car when it is ok, or I need him to etc.
We will do training etc. I am so excited!!! He has been raised around little dogs and our little dogs have been raised around large dogs so it should be fine.
I should be able to get some much better sleep than I have in 4 years. My counselor has been after me to get another one so I cannot wait for her to meet him.
I am going to name him Micheal. After my Grandfather from Germany. lol.
I will put more about all of this in my blog.
I can go for walks again and everything!!!!!

He sounds REALLY sweet, Laurie! I love big dogs.. and german shepards are SO smart! I think he's a lucky puppy indeed cos I know you'll love the stuffing outta him!
*am so jealous.. though I want another black lab, my *fav*
Today for the first time I was able to leave the back door open to have a bit of fresh air and I actually went for a little walk with him just by our house, and played with him in the yard, (It's all fenced in.) He already has a deep bark and makes me feel safer.
I hope you can get your Lab Nony. They are great dogs too! A such beautiful animals as well.
Thank you,
Laurie

I am a disabled American Veteran. I was disabled while serving in the Navy oversea's. I was Kidnapped, and repeatedly raped and tortured by a Muslim male. This is considered an International Incident and it was in the headlines of the Genveva newspapers in Switzerland where it happened.
He left me at a train station where a French Speaking Lady found me. She did not know english so I had to speak Spanish which I knew because I was stationed in Spain for about 5 years. She called the Police, they called the ambulance, translators ans the American Consulate Generals Office who notified my Command and then they took care of me until I was able to go back to my command.
I did not ever get counseling for this event. It took it's toll on me in the form of PTSD.
I fear being attacked, assaulted etc. if I am out. I know for example that I was not able to fight him off. He had a weapon and my knees actually buckled when he held a knife to my throat.
So, I feel like a German Shepherd (I used to work with them, training them for police dogs.) would help me be safe. I felt much safer with my other one. I do go to counseling through the V.A.
I plan to train this one the same way, it is called SCHUTZHOUND training. And is for police work but is also a great fun and bonding experience for the dog and handler. It does not teach the dog to be mean, only to act on a given command usually in German language and with hand signs. It includes training in, personal protection, tracking by scent, and searching out the bad guy.

German Shepards are smart and are very loyal he will be very loyal and faithful to you Take care and Congrats again!!!!.

I worked in a K-9 training center some years ago. I love my German Shepherds! My first one was German Blood line, this one is AKC. His legs are like tree trunks! He will be much bigger than my German bred one.
You can see his pics from today on our web site at www.4-lesbianlife.com.
