USMC_0311 Puppies

[Kcustom45]

I'm not even sure if @USMC_0311 is still active on this forum, but 12 years ago today they had a litter of puppies and we were fortunate enough to end up with one of the females from that litter. We've had our ups and downs, like a couple years ago when she developed bloat and had to have expensive emergency surgery. But I would say that overall Kimber has been the best dog I've ever had. We can trust her to be outside with us and she won't wonder off or try and kill the chickens. In fact I think that is one of her favorite things to do is find either a sunny or shady spot depending on the season and plop down where she can watch us work.

I'm sure her parents are long gone and I would even guess that some of her litter mates have passed on as well. I know that she is in the twilight of her life and I am not looking forward to day she will no longer be with us. In the mean time I guess we just have to enjoy all the time we have left with her.

Shepherds are just the best. Good post!

I fell in love with the breed 8 years ago when I got my first one as a service dog...
She's made a world of difference in my life.
I'm sure I'll want another German Shedder when she crosses rainbow bridge.



Happy birthday Kimber.

They tug at our shoestrings as pups and our heartstrings as we get older......I miss my dogs. I have one left, my daughters dog......and I am sure that is not going to be an easy day when it comes.

This is Gus. Best puppy I have ever had. Fun, loving and obedient . When he is gone there will be a hole in our lives.
