have you ever HAD a german shepard before? If not, then you might want to rethink wanting one...they are extremely strong willed dogs and only people who have had previous experience with them should own one..especially a puppy. That's the one main reason shelters end up with dogs as people think they are really cute puppies, but then for whatever reason, the darn thing grows into a DOG...imagine that...

So, again, please if you are familiar with this breed, then you know what I am talking about..if you are not, then I suggest you talk to one of the ladies who runs QAWS and see what kind of dog would be best for you and your family.

Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked,the good fortune to run into the ones I do,and the eyesight to tell the difference.
