Sarah Berry Webboard User Reg: 06-19-2009 Posts: 27 Loc: SW Ohio Offline	Thanks for the reply, I have been "lurking" on the forum and enjoy reading the wealth of info that is provided. I purchased Ed's 3 disc puppy set a few months ago. Growing up my family raised Quarter Horses and cattle that we trained and showed for 4-H. There were always Blue Heelers under foot. When I got married 9 years ago my hubby had a Dal. Enigma has been gone for almost 6 years, cancer. Now that our youngest is potty trained, age 3, I feel that it is time to add another "dog child" to our family. I really miss having dog bells to announce visitors We would prefer a medium sized, low shedding, well bred companion to raise and train. 4-H obedience and agility eventually.

He's actually a very nice Thai Ridgeback with a very correct temperament for his breed. Happily for him he hit the no kill shelter, it's the only reason he's still breathing because of it. True ancient breeds are a little beyond something you just have an eye for. You need to really consider temperament and purpose in one of these guys and decide if it's compatible with your lifestyle.

I know that being purebred isn't a guarantee, but knowing an animal's background/breeding is valuable. I'm looking forward to a 10-15 year commitment and both for the dog's sake and our own I want to make the best choice possible.
