I AGREE, WHAT A GREAT STORY......when my dad had his german shepherds, if any children had disabilities, you should see the way the dogs approached the chilldren....no jumping on them and the dogs always knew what to do, without any help from us, to win their trust....i dont know how other breeds are, but i know the German Shepherd breed and being handicapped myself, they make my life worth living and give more love and devotion that i am so grateful for...if you remember Peanut, when i sleep at night, she is ALWAYS awake, watching me sleep to make sure i am okay and will sleep during the day when she sees me up and moving around....in my opinion, there is no other breed and i would be lost without them....natalie CLOVERLEIFE HILL KENNELS In a message dated 5/5/2013 4:12:10 P.M.
