Hello from British Columbia!

Hi Everyone!

I'm new here, and just joined today! I'm a first time dog owner, and picked up my new puppy yesterday (cue excited squealing). Although, I have always been around dogs while growing up, in fact, there was never a time in my life when my family was without a dog. However, this is my first time as the sole owner and main caretaker/ trainer of a dog.

My new girl is a 9 week old Maremma/ Akbash cross, one of the livestock guardian breeds. I got her to watch over my miniature horses, and to eventually make sure that they don't get eaten by any bears or passing cougars. Her name is Ayla (I don't know if I'm going to keep that spelling variation, I might change it, but the pronunciation will stay the same), and she is such a joy to have around, and quite the little love!

I'm immensely excited to start this new journey as a dog owner, and looking forward to having all of you dog-savvy people impart your knowledge on me
