[@descattysBushcraftbydescattys]

Cheers mate 👍 He's OK so far 🤞😉

[@Southernlandbushcraft]

He looks like a great dog mate and you'll give him a great life. I had 2 German Shepherds and they were lovely dogs. ATB

[@bugoutbrad8395]

Good suff Des. I happen for you and the famdamely. Lol Cheers 🍻 mate.

[@TheDavewatts]

I'm with you mate , Dutch would have been a cracking name. I see Rocky more for Bull dog's, staffs, boxer's, you no all the flat face breeds. I'm sure by now Rocky works fine for you, great dogs. Bad dog, bad owner , good dog good owner in my experience.👍🏻

Dogs are a blank slate you make the thing good or bad it’s all how you train and treat them….Have fun stay safe.

Nice one Des 🕊🕊

[@BurtonOutdoors]

Beautiful Dog 🐕 I'd love to have a dog, but I just couldn't give the commitment they need. Rocky is a proper looking dog though, you won't fit him in your handbag mate 😂

[@descattysBushcraftbydescattys]

🤣 I could probably get him in an empty bergen

[@marklawrence855]

[@Mugwumps107]

He looks a lovely pooch Des, pleased for you. I almost acquired a Malinois myself about 4/5 years ago, my situation wasn’t ideal at that time and i have lamented it ever since. He was a lovely dog too.

[@descattysBushcraftbydescattys]

Cheers he's very social

[@LowPlainsDrifter60]

Dutch Shepherds are great dogs (as are the Belgian Shepherds) but every dog is different. There are hyper -types with high eneregy, which require a lot of physical & mental activity & there are others who are more layed back, wth medium energy & make excellent pets & companions. It isn't because a certain breed is used for work, that every individual of that breed has a working mentality. I wouldn't take too much notice of KZbin videos of these breeds ether, as they are highly focused on the spectacular & can give a misleading image of the breeds, just lke they did with pitbulls 10 or 15 years ago. It's too soon yet to judge his real personality as he is still working out his new enviroment but your buddy looks like a well balanced dog & if his reactions to strangers & other dogs are "normal" then you shouldn't have much trouble with him & kudos to his previous owners who socialised him. I envy the journey you 2 are starting out on together. 👍

[@descattysBushcraftbydescattys]

Thank you, certainly a steep learning curve for me and my family.

[@stevetaylor8446]

There was one at the farm I was horse, dog and cat sitting for a friend...the owner of the farm across from my friends ...his name was Concorde...beautiful dog, all he wanted was his sticks. Onlyfault with him at the farm was when the guns were shooting deer etc...he wanted to chew the rifles and shotguns. For me, he was a lovely boy and just wanted to play. Youve got a good dog there mate 👍👍👍

[@descattysBushcraftbydescattys]

Needs lots of stimulating and exercise but so affectionate and friendly

[@marksadventures3889]

Rocky's a lovely dog. I've had a few "Devil Dogs" A Doberman, Belgian Shepherd, a Japanese Akita and a rescue Rottweiler who'd lick you to death. No such thing as bad dogs only bad owners. Rescue dogs need love, space and time. The most aggressive I've known was a Jack Russell- he really had small man syndrome..lol...😅😂 a right little bugger. Happy trails with Rocky Des.

[@descattysBushcraftbydescattys]

Certainly agree with all you said Thanks mate

[@greenmouse9354]

Nice dog, it’s people who trained these dogs to be aggressive that are the problem.

[@descattysBushcraftbydescattys]

Cheers mate Yeah your right, but I get it with the military and police adopting them for service

[@MarkJarvis-m8u]

Good to see you back Des love the new companion and hope he a regular on your future vids and good luck the Pen y Fan 😊👍

[@descattysBushcraftbydescattys]

Hey cheers Thank you I'm sure he'll steal the show 😂

[@t_poutsider]

Nice 1 Des, poor rocky is gonna be worn out trying to keep up with ya with all the training. Keep Hammering away mate.

[@descattysBushcraftbydescattys]

Hey he'll ruin me with his endless energy

[@TheDavewatts]

I was just thinking to message you to see if you were doing okay.👍🏻

[@descattysBushcraftbydescattys]

Hey mate Yeah appreciate that , I was just having a break from it all

Hi there, just subscribed, been following you for a while-saw the dog and clicked on the video because I thought that looks exactly like my dog :). I have a Dutchie , she had her first litter about a year ago, from the GSD father (Scout), who is a lovely boy, about six years old. You have a lovely boy there-I can't imagine a dog with more intelligence than my Dutch herder-they are not for the faint-hearted:). She wants to play or exercise all day, and if possible, all night :). She has been an incredible mum-the pups were/are all incredible. I would say, if you want a Dutch Shepherd, be prepared for mayhem, get loads of tug, chew, fetch and throw toys, and be prepared to use them:). Have a great time with your Herder, they truly are fantastic-I think you are right-there are a lot of videos saying these are not to be trifled with-personally, it looks to me like you have a brilliant dog, an amazing bond, which I can promise you will only increase-they have an indomitable spirit, which you will be amazed by for a very long time:). Could go on for ages:)

[@descattysBushcraftbydescattys]

Hey nick Thanks totally agree with all your saying, certainly enjoys the exercise and chew toys and yes loves a tug of War 😉

[@Nick1210100]

You get to realize quickly that not all indestructible dog toys are equally indestructible :: Or wooly hats:)

[@descattysBushcraftbydescattys]
