#608 – Howie

Howie and Elsie are doing well together.  I took it really slow but I think it paid off.  I had them loose at times in the house a few weeks ago but just started having them free together in the yard with the bigger fenced in area.  Howie can be a bit vocal during times of excitement which made Elsie not interested in the relationship.  Now that he has come down a notch I feel comfortable having them together. This weekend we are going on a field trips for 3-4 days up North. I’m going to...

#571 Kali

Kali and I have been busy traveling all over from NY to Northern Maine visiting and snowmobiling. She has come such a long way and listens unbelievably.  Recently with all the snow, she has been able to see the deer we feed during the winter.  I have her set were as soon as she sees them, I say “ah” to get her attention and she ignores them.  Fortunately the deer can hop the cattle fence but Kali can’t. I am very proud of her behavior and look forward to introducing more things to...

#566 – Ace

Ace was adopted at almost six years old by Chris in 2021. After losing a beloved GSD, Finn, at about the same age to bloat complications, Chris decided he wanted to do something for other German shepherd dogs in honor of Finn, and he found GSRNE online. While he wasn’t quite ready to adopt, he began fostering Ace. As often happens, Chris and Ace really clicked, and the foster situation turned into an adoption situation. Ace had had four homes in his first five years of life, which really...
