Hubby and I have been talking about getting a dog for a while now. Or I should say, I've been asking and he's been saying 'maybe' for a while now.
This week someone broke into our garage while we were both home and stole hubby's bike. Kinda freaked us out, and confirmed our feelings that if we do get a dog we'd like to get one that would be a good protector. Hubby grew up with a German shepherd, whom he loved dearly.
Does anyone out there have experience with the breed to share?
We have two juvenile CDTs-- whom we also love dearly and have NO desire to see ending up as chew toys. Clearly we would need to do some serious preparation to dog-proof their enclosures.
My one reservation about getting a dog is the DTs. Though they have enclosures, they also have run of the yard when we're outside to supervise them. I'd hate for them to lose that space.
Can't decide. Bless them, those little DTs didn't bark when the robber came.
