Over all I agree, there is no better dog than a German Shepherd Dog! That's way it's the only dog I've owned after I lost my last Great Dane in 1974. It's like owning a BMW and then getting a Toyota Corolla! Nice car but it ain't a Bemer! ( no, I don't have a BMW, I'm poor black and married! I could run for president! When is Stormy coming home! She can control me! Lol.

What else --- do THEY DO? I have mentioned to many people the truth that most breeds were developed by one or more people on a hobby basis but OUR MAX did not begin his breeding program until AFTER he retired from the military. I feel that his total devotion to doing that one thing, developing a dog that can DO MOST ANYTHING -- is why our GSDs can! Ok, maybe SOME cops use the BMs, we do have many who depend on our splendid dogs every day! Many have actually become HEROES! Seriously, how many write ups have you seen about the courage etc. of a BM?? I must say, it is nothing to be concerned about as our kids are able to DO IT ALL, it just depends upon the PERSON TRAINING THIS WONDERFUL ONE! Norma no L but in LOVE WITH ALL GSDs! -----Original Message----- From: edwinx@xxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, November 08, 2014 1:13 PM To: kathy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ; showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: K-9 PD, protection training, etc. --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
