Veronica Nicole alias Ronnie is 2 months older than Phoebe. She is darker, lean, fast and sometimes entirely
too smart for my own good. Both were aquired in December of 2005. Ronnie was 8 months old and had no training
of any kind. She freaked when a collar and leash were put on her. Now she freaks if you take her collar off.
She had got a fantastic gait and is beautiful to watch. One ear tends to bounce up and down when she paces
or runs. Pheobe used her ear as a security blanket. Ronnie loves to ride in the DUV (Dog Utility Vehicle).
For liver treats she'll pop each command (except recall and we're working on that one) like a champion. Sit, Down,
Stay, Heel... she's perfect. She even learned not to fence fight. Of course that was mostly due to being sprayed
with the hose. But hey, it didn't hurt her and she learned.

Prissy V - what a name for a German Shepherd! Her call name is Phoebe and she's two months younger than
Ronnie. She was six months old when I got her and Ronnie (at the same time). She's the beauty queen of the two
Shepherds. Sometimes I refer to her as my blonde child. She went sailing off the back porch three times chasing
a squirrel before she figured out that when the wood stops the dog stops. She carries my firewood off to chew on it.
Sometimes it takes her a while to learn a command but once she learns it, then it's with her forever. She
does a beautiful Sit, Down, Stay and Recall. Sometimes she's a little too intense. She loves the Daschund
and Pepe. Dixie tolerates her, I think she feels sorry for Phoebe 'cause Phoebe isn't as smart as the others.
Phoebe has a very bad habit of breaking out of her crate. We're working on that.
She loves for people to throw a ball or toy until their arm falls off. You have to quit before she falls
out.
Here's a picture of Pheebs.
