I think some people don't know what they are talking about...and he looks so much like my Jackson's daddy and what I'm pretty sure Jackson will look like as a big boy.

Gorgeous baby you have

Last weekend we were in the front yard doing yard work and had our 5 month old Link on a gravity anchor with a line so that he would have more freedom than just being on the leash. The lady who delivers newspapers asked my 8 yr old daughter "what's wrong with your dog" and she said nothing. Don't want him running away!!! We were also at the Off Leash park and someone asked if he was part wolf.

Yesterday we were waiting outside my son's school. One little boy walking with his mother starts chanting Doggie Doggie Doggie. Morgan, who loves children, turns to look at him. I see the big smile on his face and tell him that he can pet her if he wants. The mother grabs his arm and tells me 'No No, he's afraid of dogs.' Sure lady, that's why he's trying to drag you towards my dog.

Then she asks me if my dog is 'Kinda big in the stomach?' I didn't know what to say ? Are you callin' my dog fat? Or do you think she just ate someone's kid???

My wife had her GSD at the vet some years ago. He was a bit "squirrelly". The vet tech came in to do the preliminary exam. My wife forgot to bring the muzzle and asked the to brorrow one. The tech said, "It no problem. He would never bite me -he's a friendly looking dog. He doesn't need a muzzle". My wife relented after a discussion.

....

Fortunately, there was only a bad bruise and no broken skin.

I have another one to add, courtesy of my husband who is currently training in Virginia. Today the training group is eating lunch, subject of dogs came up...he mentioned we had a GSD pup...he was told by almost everyone in the group that "German Shepherds are worse than pitbulls."

My Puppy is only 4 months old, and I had kids and a parent say those kinda dog are mean. As they took off running. Also someone asked me if she purebred. i was like mmm ya

I had a lady come up to me once and asked why I had a GSD, and she said, "you do know that dog will kill you while you're sleeping right?" I was like "WHAT, you're kidding right?" People are so dumb when it comes down to the GSD breed. I'm slowly learning to ignore such stupid comments, but it does make me angry that people are the way they are about the GSD, because they are great pets, I'll never have any other breed but the GSD.

this isnt gsd specific but i was at our playdate today (unofficial "dog park", just about 10-20 of us that get together) and there was a new visitor who made a comment about how nice it was to see all the pups getting along and having fun... another woman says to her "yea, i feel pretty safe here - i mean, anyone who <u>cares enough to take their dog out everyday</u> has probably trained it to get along with other dogs"

i know where she was going with this, but its such an unsafe assumption.
