Hi! I'm new!

[Miranda_Rae]

Hi,

I'm new here! I have read posts on this website for about 2 years before I got up the nerve to join. I have a German Shorthaired Pointer whose name is Heidi, and she is almost two years old. Her birthday is December 28. As of this typing she is out pheasant hunting with my dad and brother. She LOVES to hunt! I am going to be entering her in a conformation show in Canada in November, and right now I am in agility with her. Its a lot of fun. She just loves the treats! :D Shes my baby and my best friend. I love her to death!

Well I think that sums it up. Oh yeah, this is my first dog, ever! I wanted a fluffy dog but my dad wanted a hunting dog, so I settled for a GSP, and I couldn't be happier. :) Shes the greatest!

Oh yeah, and one of the reasons that I didn't join earlier was cause I am VERY paranoid about Internet predators. So yeah. Well I think thats all!

Welcome to Pet Talk! My name is Laura and I am owned my 2 cats, 2 rats, and 2 rabbits. I go hunting also! There is a Rat Terrier that goes duck hunting with us, and could probably out retrieve a Labrador if he so desired- it is hilarious when he brings back a duck almost bigger than him! He sure is a toughie!

Post pictures of your GSD, ASAP- we love pictures on Pet Talk! :D

I look forward to seeing pictures and hearing more about your dog. I think you will be glad you joined. We are all nice here and safe.

I don't live in Canada. I live in the US. I do dog shows in Canada cause my trainer shows in Canada, and there aren't any where I live. :(

[Kfamr]

Welcome! :)


My name is Kay and I'm owned by three mutts. :)

[Miranda_Rae]

Thanks for the friendly welcome! I don't want to be a pain, but could someone tell me how to put a picture of Heidi up here? Thanks!

[Kfamr]

You have to load your photo onto an image server -- many of us use www.photobucket.com

Once you've done that. get the url of the photo [right click on it, properties] then use the IMG code and paste the URL in between the image code.

It'd look something like this, without the spaces..

Welcome to Pet Talk. :D

[Karen]

Welcome to Pet Talk!

Another way to post pictures is to "attach" them - they show up as just a link, but people can click on it and see the picture. It's at the bottom of the box in the window where you type your post, says "attach file." It is best if it's a jpg file, but other types work, too - there's a list right noext to the "Attach file" button.

[swimma253]

Ah I see. PT's a pretty safe site though, and as long as you don't give too much personal information, you should be alright.

:)

[Miranda_Rae]

Yes, I have finally figured out that most of the people on this site are pretty harmless. :)

Hi Miranda,

Welcome to Pet Talk! My name is Robin and those are my two girls in my signature. Katie is a one year old Akita and Tori, a Siberian Husky, will be 9 months old tomorrow.

Your Heidi is a cutie. I really like GSP's. Our dog trainer has 4 of them and I quickly fell in love with her gang. Great dogs! Hope we will get to see more of Heidi and hear some stories about her and you.
