Talking Why are you thankful for the GSD.

Since this week us Americans celebrate our holiday called Thanksgiving I thought it might be fun to share with each other why we're thankful for our GSDs (past or present).

Feel free to gush and brag and go on and on!

I am so very thankful for my Sinister.

He is everything that I could have ever wanted, every single day I am amazed at how much I love him and how much he loves me. He is my best friend, my shadow, my protector, my companion, my family and my heart. Words cannot express the love that I have for him. I would do anything for him, I would protect him with my life. When I look into his eyes I see understanding, he loves me for who I am, he doesn't judge me, there is no one that he loves more than me. Sinister's presence (sp) makes me feel safe and comfortable and if I didn't have him there would have been no way that I could have lived in my house alone. I am still in awe today of his beauty, he will always be the most gorgeous dog I have ever seen. Sinister is my #1 priority.

For me, living with GSD's is like watching an amazing sunset, catching the big wave, or having a butterfly land on your hand..... They're all gone too soon, but you're forever grateful for the experience.

They have been family, companions, best friends, protectors, teachers and students in my families life for the past thirty something years. I can't imagine not coming home to a big pair of bright, shiny, brown eyes and wagging tail ! For this we are truly thankful !

Someone once said, Money can buy a dog, only Love can make it's tail wag !

With each GSD I have learned something new and taken a different look on life. Max is my pride and joy, I love him to pieces. He sometimes is a challenge but he always makes me laugh. I will never own another breed after having GSD's, my heart has been stolen.

Handle every stressful situation like a dog. If you can't eat it or play with it, pee on it and walk away.
