I'm totally head over heels with my great dane pup.
She's so smart and loyal. She's great with kids and pets alike.
She belongs to the meistersinger linage and is excelling in all forms of training.
I hope to begin competing with her in obedience, companion training, and possibly agility. I think she's a great candidate for therapy as well as some service.

mines the Bernese mountain dog. they're darn friendly even if they get big and heavy into old age. the color patterns are just beautiful. its too bad most get done in by cancer. i never owned one but a neighbour and my cousin had one, both got cancer and were put down. their names were Rent and Luca respectively.

There is no such thing as the "mini aussie," the Australian Shepherd has absolutely no variation.

What people claimed were "mini aussies" is now classified as its own breed called the Miniature American Shepherd, with no relation to the Australian Shepherd - http://www.theaustralianshepherd.net...p?f=16&t=16323

Nope! They are, in fact, from America xD!! But I'm not going to argue with the breed name they've been given for hundreds of years xP

I was really routing for the name "North America Shepherd" as the "Mini American Shepherd" sounds and looks too much like "Mini Aussie," but I'm just glad they finally changed it. Too bad most "breeders" will still market those dogs as "mini aussies" because it sounds appealing, meaning they get money.
