Hello!

Hi there, just wanted to introduce myself. I'm Kelly and I live in Brampton, Ontario. My husband and I recently (about a month ago) adopted a 2-year-old lab/doberman rescue dog named Katie. She's an absolute sweetheart and already loves us as though she'd been with us for years... and the feeling is quite mutual. We are having one problem with her though, which I'll ask about on the behaviour board.

Although we both grew up with dogs, this is OUR first dog, so we're thrilled, but also have a lot to learn. I'm sure you can expect a lot of questions from me in the days and months to come!

Welcome !!

But if you want answers to your questions, you have to post pics of your dog! It's a just paiment for any help we give.

Kidding

But we do demand pics though! Help, is free of charge! And thank you for rescuing an adult mix much appreciated on this forum, as you will discover.

Haha... twist my arm. My 'posting rules' are saying I may not post attachments - I'm not sure if this is because I'm new, or if I screwed something up! - but as soon as I figure it out, I'll be more than happy to post a pic of my baby.

Hi Kel, welcome to the board And yes, you're right, it's because you're brand new that you can't post attachments....soon though. And if you have any questions ask some of the older members...I myself, just earned my attachment rights

Hi, Kelly! Welcome to the board!

Hmmmm....not sure what's going on with the attachments, but I hope you figure it out soon! We'd love to see pictures of sweet Katie!

Welcome to pets.ca I'm not sure about the attachment restriction either. Other newbies have posted pics right away. Hopefully it gets sorted out soon.

I'm not sure what the reason was... they must have just heard I'm a bad seed.

But today my restriction is gone! So here's our sweet, goofy, floppy-eared Katie. That tongue picture makes me laugh everytime I look at it.

Well she's just as cute as she can be Kel B. Easy to see why you would pick her.
