Today after our walk, Jasper and I decided to go over to the Jeep dealership to pick up some touch up paint and look at the new 4 door Jeeps (Just a peak)
Anyways as I first entered the service area, Ironically there was an older man (70ish) with a GSD
(GSD was prob about 8, very mellow and friendly).
The man asked if they could meet, I said sure. Noticing that the body language was appropriate, and Jasper seemed fine, we approached.
Both dogs exchanged business cards (smelling personal areas
and they liked each other.
The man made some comments about Jasper's size. He first noticed that Jasper is extremely tall for a GSD (I agree), and that his head was enormous (on pictures it doesn't look big, but in person, his head is very large).
The man was nice, and I said thanks, and we moved on to the service department/parts.
I entered the area, Jasper always at my side. The sales rep took a look at Jasper and said, "holy smokes is he big, and beautiful, can I pet him", I said sure.
The man petted him, and Jasper like usual, coils around the man just loving the attention, (Jasper just seems to take it all in).
Then during the wait, about 15 to 20 different people met and greated, made really nice comments about Jasper, and how "well behaved" he was, and how "handsome" he was
They also said he looked "different", I explained that import lines build is a little different. LOL, after some of the comments, I was thinking, does Jasper look like
All in all it was great, I love to take him to places just for socialization and to give our great GSD breed a great experience with other people (who see them as monsters, on occasion
Oh, the 4 door Jeep was real nice, going to take a test drive on Monday
(even though I will still buy the FJ Cruiser
