What is it with these leaping GSDs??!!
Our scariest moment with Heidi (other than the time she got out of the yard when we first got her!) was when we were at a beach and Heidi and I were up on a cliff that was at least 12 feet high. Dave was below us and further away and waved his hand for her to come down. We both thought she would go down the same way she came up--via the path. But she leaped forward and hit the sand really hard. She started yelping really loud and we thought, "Oh no, how are we going to get her to the car?" (Since she never allowed us to pick her up.) We thought for sure she had broken at least one of her legs.
But then she looked around and took off running and was perfectly fine. Scared the you-know-what out of us though!
Here she is right before she leaped. The height was about twice what's shown in the photo.
