Good Morning,
I have my first GSD, a rescued female, Bella, about 2 years old. I was looking for compatibility with another GSD, I would like two, when I came across this website. Wonderful! Lots of information.
My last three dogs have been Great Danes. When people would ask me how I trained the dogs I used to joke that, 'First, you have to know more than the dog.' With Bella it is a toss-up leaning toward her. She is smart, crafty, persistent and quick to catch on in training. All in all a great joy in my life.
I am a small time building contractor and bring Bella with me every day and I make that known in advance to customers. So far everyone loves her. She lays in the shade, which I find odd when she could move a couple feet and be in the sun, off leash and watches. Just watches. Often she will come to me and I will pet her and cuddle with her for a minute but then it is back to laying in the shade.
So I am here and hope to learn the art of cohabitating to make life more enjoyable for both of us and offer any help I can.
Tom
