Introducing...
Sharaya!
(sha-RAY-a)
She is an 8wk old german shepherd... and she is a sweetie!
We picked her up yesterday from TeMar Shepherd in Canby, OR. They breed them and show them and train them to do the obstacle courses called Schutzhund. They invited us to come to a show sometime as it's open to everybody, so we might just do that!
The green stuff on her right ear is tattoo ink. They "tattooed" her ear yesterday and then put this thick green clay-like ink on it to absorb into the tattoo. It gets everywhere. It dries but when it gets wet it's gooey again. They say it will take one or two weeks for it all to wear off (except for in the tattoo...that supposed to be there forever!) It's a number and letters indicating who she is by her records if she is ever lost or stolen.
Sharay has a sweet and mild temperament. The first day and night, she whined quite a bit. They call that separation anxiety. Poor thing. She misses her brothers and sisters.
But today, she has played a lot and gone with us to Petsmart to pick out some new toys.
She was fascinated with the fountain we have on our front patio. It has goldfish in them that she thought would make a tasty treat...
More pictures to come soon!
