These are German Shepherds, they are a working, thinking breed. You need
to work their brains, give them jobs that cause this, if not they will find
their own job and sometimes that outcome is not pretty. Sometimes these
GSDs are better off in a pet home, there they are part of the family
I do not see it the same. The dogs in Germany are seldom house dogs .
They are kept in a kennel and as both standards call for, they are to be
aloof. We want dogs that will adapt to all conditions, including becoming
house dogs. That does not mean they can't do the work,but often are more human
oriented that dog oriented. It is a different use of our breed, not
better or worse. Certainly not "softer". I just spent some time with Koby,
and I would never be able to get near the van. But, when Ann brought him to
me, he remembered me and we reunited out friendship.
I think Ann was being nice to me because I put up her dogs. Or maybe not.
That is what I want in my German shepherd, not matter what country he comes
from.
