If you live near or in KC, I can recomend an excelent training course. As for the name, look through her paperwork and pick a name from either side of her family tree... that is how I got Heidi's name. I was going to name her Gretta, or something like that... something German, something sweet, etc. You could go with so many names, its hard to decide.
Ronda... 125 is a light weight? That is a healthy weight for a female. Mine is at 111 right now, which is pretty solid. 125 starts geting rough on their joints. I always figured mine would weigh a little more than she does, but it woul be a bit much. I try to keep her lean, because she grew fast, and she would limp all the time, I thought she hurt herself, but the vet said she was getting too big too fast, and her joints would be screwed up later. She was 24 lbs when I got her at 9 weeks, and 90 at 6 months, and she hasn't grown much since then, use to be +5lbs/week, now its +5lbs/45 days. Oh well.
They are the greatest dogs! It is a shame they get such a bad name from all the a$$holes that raise them wrong... I was at Shawnee Mission Park a couple weeks ago at the off leash park with my Rott and two friends that have Pit Bulls, and a little ****zu came up and attacked all of our dogs! I doubt you would ever hear of something like that on the news! |
