This little guy Bear will be joining our home on 3/21. He is a german shepherd. Im so excited about it, I feel like a child on Christmas Eve. I havent felt this good in a year or two so just had to share with you all. Also for those of you that encouraged me to take the water aerobics class, thankyou. I had to drop out after 2 classes as I couldnt take the heat/ humidity and chemical smell in pool room.... BUT the good part is to help pass the time on the 45 min drive in, my daughterinlaw showed me how to make a playlist on my phone. I had forgotten how much music can affect out moods. So my playlists(3, lol) are full of upbeat, makes you want to shake your booty kind of music! My hubby just rolls his eyes.. I might be “ going thru my second childhood”, I am enjoying these changes.
Got a baby Bear sighting, arrival 3/21 - Anxiety and Depre...
Got a baby Bear sighting, arrival 3/21
Love him ❤️ No wonder you are excited 😆 x
Thankyou! I need a project and he is it.
Wonderful project 😊💕
That is so good to hear. Dogs are wonderful so is music. I love music xxxx
I have forgotten music. So glad Im rediscovering it.
I definitely agree on the power of music to alter your mood.
Your puppy is adorable btw. I had a shepherd-mix for 13 years. She was really the best!
Ive had a shepherd or a mix since I was 21, now pushing 67. Dont know why Im so attracted to them but they are just special to me.
Do you have horses as well?
Yes. When our boys were home we did alot of camping and trailriding. Now with aging horses and my arthritic knees, Im happy to saddle up and just ride around our place here. Our horses are much like our dogs, fat spoiled babies, lol.
My grandparents had several different horses, belgians, quarter horses and golden paliminos -all for different tasks.
Sometimes I'll watch period dramas, not for the people so much, but for the horses. Especially the freshian horses!
Draft horses are my favorites, so majestic! I learned to ride in a belgian/ quarter cross. Ol Sally was a tank😂
Yes, and they were so gentle despite their size.
Well have a great day on your farm.
Thankyou so much💜
Agree
Awww so cute....
It will be great When i was at my lowest my mum and husband brought me my shihtzu gizmo( unfortuately he is no longer with me) but he gave me 13 years of love and fun.. proper cheered me up. Made me get up to walk him and talk to people.
Now i have my cockapoo trev. I would never b without a dog ... better then any tablets a gp gave me...
Yes, I totally agree💜🐶
beautiful hoski lets hope your new little bundle of fun brings years of joy.
Thankyou! Im considering him a special gift from God.
Congratulations Hoski! A Pup is just what you need. Before I started to be not well, I trained German Shepherds for many years and raised several. I just have a couple suggestions for you to try so that you develop a nice relaxed relationship with your pup. They are very driven, bred to WORK all day, and need tons of exercise or they will drive you crazy. Your family should start a training program immediately, just a few minutes several times a day, you have to make sure the dog knows who is the pack leader. Maybe get some help from a dog trainer. Watch Cesar Milan shows.
Have lots of fun.
Thankyou! Ive always been a Caesar Milan fan. Ive always had shepherds and shepherd mixes my whole life, but must admit as a fulltime working nurse, didnt put the time in. We r rural and the dogs always got plenty of exercise but now Im retired, Im studying training books on GSD’s and plan to give him everything Ive got. Wish you were my neighbor!💜
kraftwerkk9.com/. Wayne has some really good puppy training videos on his website. Check it out.
Thanks!
Btw if I run in to bumps in the road, do you mind if I pick your brain? Only issue I hope doesnt happen is our 6 yr old spayed schnauzer Gracie can b a bully. Im expecting good behavior from her. Fingers crossed.
Of course! You just need to show Gracie that you are in charge and her bullying is not ok, don’t let her get away with it. Put her leash on in the house if you need to remind her.
He is gorgeous!
Thankyou! Anxious to get him here.
Won't be too long xxx

Look at the size of his paws!
He's going to be as big as he is beautiful !

Our old shepherd who died this winter was a big guy. Rudy always thought he was a lap dog, lol. He would sit with me on our yard swing and we would swing away our( my) problems💜. I have high expectations for little Bear.
I love the sound of those big puppy paws on the floor
Hoski, sounds like my Brandy who I lost because of age.
I really think she thought she was my daughter. Huge, beautiful
features and yet a heart of gold who always wanted to be by her
mommy lol
I can't wait for your adventure to start on the 21st. Hope you will
be posting pictures along the way. xx
Thankyou! Yes I will post pics
So adorable!!
Thankyou💜
