Buf-Phoon loitering with intent Lifetime Members 13,318 Member For: 21y 5m 3d Gender: Male Location: Zombie Birdhouse Posted 16/04/07 10:36 AM Share Posted 16/04/07 10:36 AM I have 2 German Shepherds (my no. 5 & 6) and they are indoors.They get walked twice a day, don't annoy the neighbours with barking all day and sh*t all over the backyard attracting flies.Amazing pets, and totally engaged in our lives, much to the reward for all parties involved Awesome Dogs , when I lived in Qld had a father and son , long hair. Big fit dogs weighing in at nearly 50kgs each.In terms of intelligence these animals were poles apart from my mates(2) that had owned multiple Staffies.A good Shepperd is really a part of the family, more so than any other breed I have come into contact with. Hard to explain but they really have a sixth sense and are very intuitive beasts.Play with them , keep them excercised and you will find a loyal companion for as long as they live , which unfortunately , on average not much more than 12- 14 years.Unfortunately the older dog only survived one day on my parents acreage , before he saw fit to chase a roo onto the main road (a few Ks chase , this was a determined animal). Can't blame the dog , he had never seen one before and it was on his new turf .Miss them both , Razzle and Kaiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I had him under control when we went to cross a minor road, but as he sat 'heel' waiting for a singel VW transporter to pass, he must have seen something, because he went 1 m in front of me he got hit and thrown down the road, where I held him for what seemed like an eternaty, until he died, probabloy from massive internal bleeding We were both young and inexperienced, he died and I live with the awful memory This is why I take extra care these days, as I would not like to see this kind of thing again, nor would I wish it on anyone who cares for their animal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
