Hello from Nova Scotia Canada
I have a 10 year old OES named Gertie. Here is a pic of her taken several months ago: Gertie. Here is another pic of her all shaved down for the summer:Gertie Gert is a rescue. She came to us back in Jan of this year after she was seized by the cruelty inspectors and the SPCA from her previous owner. Her case is highlighted here Gert is simply amazing and she has become a wonderful part of our family. I hope to get to know some of your furry family members as well. Cheers l. |

| Hi, Lis!
You will find a few folks here that have relatives of Gertie's! We took Dixie into foster care in February...she was called Lil Deb at that time, and was in a boarding kennel in Frederiction. She was the last one left of the seizure. In August we officially adopted her. Glad you found this site and thank you for giving Gertie a new lease on life! |

I remember Lil Deb from a few of the OES Rescue sites. I am glad to hear she's also found a forever home and a new lease on life. We adopted Gert through the Oromocto SPCA where they had several of the dogs from the seizure. I believe Gert was in one of the first groups to be re-homed. I look forward to hearing from some of the other people here who have given Gert's relatives new homes - they are all so special

Hi, and welcome from Norway  |
| Hi!
Welcome to the from Norway  |
| I took a new pic of Gert to share with you all: Gert
Her long hair now takes an hour to comb out each day. Good thing she is so mellow and enjoys the time spent grooming. I think its because she know's she'll get a treat after we're all done!! l. (I tried to upload it as an avatar but it was too big. Does anyone know how to do it?) |
| She is as beautiful in person as she is in her picture!!!! |
| Welcome!!!
I have an 11 year old, perhaps we can compare OLD AGE NOTES!!!! |
| Yes, that would be great. Your sheepie looks like he is "aging beautifully" too. Feel free to send me an email. Thanks
l. |
She is beautiful!  |
| Hi and Welcome!!
My boys are jumping for joy another sheepie girl has joined the forum!! They are sending Gert sloppy sheepie kisses and their mom (me) is sending belly rubs to your beautiful girl. So glad you joined us and please feel free to ask any questions or contribute to the forums. You'll see it's such a friendly place visited by people and their furballs from all over the world. Sigh ..can't help much concerning avatars but perhaps the more computer savy people can help. Marianne and the boys |
