kya is nearly 3 now!!! and oh my god has it been 3 yrs of madness i joined the german shepherd group because i couldnt understand why TKY my first shepherd was so good ( by 12months old she was obeying every command and learning agility....... her lefts from her rights. through tunnels, over jumps, seasaws, frame work- amazing)
kya is nearly 3, a complete madam- attitude teenager problem of which i have learned it seems to be trait with black shepherds.......... but with her, unlike Tky, she totally loves me and wouldnt be anywhere else but my side. the affection is overwelming, which makes up for the troublemaking.
She comes to work with me every day since she was 7wks old,, and is still learning how to be a shop dog. today we had a photo shoot for a portrait of her and i, for my mums mothers day pressie- and kya was an absolute professional, looked at the camera and posed.... brilliant..... she made me proud today.
i looked into rescue black shepherds and they all seem to be dumped between the ages of 12mths and 3yrs( BECAUSE THEY ARE NUTS) they just need a little bit more tlc than most!!
worth it tho, they are truly amazing creatures... just need to be understood!! my god daughter(age 6) calls her the black fox........... that sums her up quite well
