Maybe :) Though our vet may be able to nail it down to a more accurate age. He'll also be able to tell us if she's at her "adult" size, I would think.  We have an app't to see him today at 2:15pm :)

I wouldn't blame her I think :)

We paid a $450.00 adoption fee for her, which covered spay/neuter, vaccinations, HW testing, chipping, health certificate and all the  transport fees to get her from Texas to Horseheads, NY where we picked her up.  A bit of
$$, but given the cost of a shepherd we felt it was worth it.   And her
personality is just so incredible, we are all thrilled with her.  She met two of my grandsons yesterday.  The first thing she did block the door demanding pets and kisses (which the two boys were very happy to give her :) )
