Hello All
Hello, I'm Eris, I own two dogs at the moment - both of which happen to be absolute terrors.
Lizzy is a nine year old half staffy, quarter doberman, quarter gsd. She doesn't act her age, and is frequently mistaken for a puppy. I rescued her when she was three, having been in at least two homes, three rescues and a foster home. She had alot of behavioural problems and looking back on it, she was the last dog I should have taken on, but thankfully through sheer stubbornness on both our parts, she is now a relatively confident dog, although her issues with the postman and some other dogs haven't gone away. Aside from helping her through her issues, we do lots of agility together which she adores, obedience classes and fun dog shows, which she is starting to enjoy. Really the last two are to help her socialise a bit more, and they seem to do the trick. She has also been a PAT dog, and was amazing at it, but is retired now because it took so much out of her.
Roger is the new addition. He is coming up to eleven weeks old, and I've had him for three. He is probably the only pedigree dog I'll ever have, as usually I would rescue, but as my last rescue had to be put to sleep at the age of eleven months due to suspected L2-HGA, I wasn't going to risk myself or Lizzy going through that again. So, this little beast came along, and is wonderful. He's quite a clever chap, and is picking up on naughty things to do as quickly as the commands I'm teaching him. He starts puppy class next week, and when he's old enough I'm hoping to see what this showing lark is all about. I doubt we'll win anything, but it will be an experience for both of us.
Moving onto me, I am a student at the moment. Animal science and welfare, although I doubt I'll actually use the degree when it comes to work. I'd like to set up a business myself, and if I do get brave enough to do that, I doubt I'll need to show myself my CV.

Re: Hello All
Hi and welcome to the forum from Rocky and me.
I wish you all the best in setting up your own business and I doubt all the studying would have been wasted.
