Thank you to: Partners of Arlington Animal Services (TX ) - PAAS's for this description, couldn't have said it better myself... SHEPHERDS are big dogs with specific traits. While they start as cute little puppies, but they grow into strong, powerful dogs who sometimes don’t know their own strength. They are protective of their people, and while this can be a positive trait, it can also cause problems if the dogs perceive danger. Dogs of this breed need to spend time with their people and be treated as part of the family, not left in the back yard or kept in a crate all day. Please remember that dogs who have been in the shelter need several days to decompress. Please introduce new pets slowly and with heightened awareness to their body language to ensure a successful integration into your pack.
Donna ask:
Could someone recommend a good Belgian Rescue or factor home in Florida...actually anywhere. My community voted my dog out and we are fighting them with an attorney to keep him,but need to prepare for the worst.
