rayebee they aren’t all that easily worked with. I have a very dominant, somewhat harder male out of the Czech republic. When you do real world protection, or work with the higher drive, harder ones, training is a lot harder and they take a tremendous amount of training to do it right. I see numerous German Shepherds with behavior problems compared to other breeds, but it all goes to who owns and works with it. But I do agree, with you great animals, and THE best breed ever.

on my way home from work,I have to pass through 3 malls.these malls employ bomb sniffing dogs.while walking,a GSD,who was sitting beside his handler,came to me and started licking my foot and my leg.I would have taken the dog home if his handler didn’t restrain him..a sweet “teddy bear”,if you ask me..
