Here's our three Pomeranians, Zephyr, Daphne, and Penelope (l-r; 5,4,8). All rescues from puppy mills that we've had for 2+, 2+, 1+ years now. We're pretty sure Z & D are all Pom, but P might be a Pomsky, she's 28 pounds! Will be interesting to get DNA test results. Zephyr has gone from a reclusive scaredy-cat to being a total love sponge, Daphne has the largest personality in the smallest body, and Penelope is really opening up the past few months.

Here's my Rock, a six year old Welsh Sheepdog.

Not that we have any livestock for him any more, but he seems happy to entertain himself!

This is my old man, Hank. He is reveling in the fact that our entire property is a giant leaf dog bed.

Kibar, the brindle, is a Plothound mix, ..... masquerading as an LGD.  :-)

Tomas and Tasha are LGDs with the former being Sarplaninac and the latter a Great Pyr/Anatolian mix.

Here are geriatric Rags and Reba as a puppy

Rags a Komondor,
Reba a Belgian Malinois

These are not the photos I was looking for, which just means I will post again when I find the video of Reba playing wild puppy on her first trip to the beach in November of 23.

The one I am looking for of Rags is quintessential Komondor (maybe all the LGDs), lying in the looking out over the country side

Got what I thought would be my 4th German Shepherd from a kill shelter. His time was almost up. Specifically wanted a GSD because I've trained several  and am now in need of companion, protector,helper and figured that equaled GSD. Shelter proclaimed him black GSD.

Had his DNA tested and one 'helpful' vet told me after learning his mix "Ma'am, what you got there is a bag full of crazy". He's Siberian Husky (about half),  Belgian Malinois (about a third), GSD 15%  and the rest wolf.
