2 of em'

I am going to be getting a dog here soon and I am going to go look at two of them this weekend. They are at the shelter in my home town so only like 10 min away!! I found 2 i really like! One is a 1yr old female Australian cattle dog mix- http://www.cchspets.org/50943.jpg
And than there is a 3yr old German shepherd male (im a suc.ker for german shepherds!!) http://www.cchspets.org/51159.jpg I love both of them but unfortunaltely we only have room for one, wel we could have two but i dont think that would be very likely. So its going to be a hard decision! I love both of them! I am going to be doing Agility but mainly Flyball!! So when I go there ill bring them out one by one and ill bring a tennis ball and see how they react! So what do you guys think of them? Oh and Ill also be doing low level obediance...

One will be a farm dog as well

That great, Theya re both very cute.

When you go bring a ball and maybe a tug toy.When walking through the kennels just bounce the ball in front of all the dogs and talk to em see who reacts who knows who may react.

When you gte one out play with the ball and tug and even work on teachign something ro see what they know. See how fast they pick thigns up and what they will do for you. Watch how much they watch you or if they dont care about you.

Hmm, they both look like GSD crosses to me, but I LOVE the second one!

I'd do what BClover said, bring in a tennis ball and take the dog who likes it most. Good luck, and let us know what you choose!

They're both adorable! Good luck making your choice. If I wanted a dog for flyball, I'd probably go with the first one (although I love GSDs, too!) simply because you don't know about the hips on the GSD (or do you - do they have his papers?).

Good luck and Congratulations!
