I still prefer to have the dog prior to the birth of the child. Puppies mature and age very rapidly, and unless one likes to raise twins...
Why put the family through it...
Way not true. Some dogs are naturally more agressive, some dogs are just not friendly to children.All dogs are kid friendly if raised properly
There's a guy in Elkhart that trains GSD for the po-po. He's supposed to be top notch...

A Dog will be what you allow it to be for the most part, there are a rare few exceptions.Way not true. Some dogs are naturally more agressive, some dogs are just not friendly to children.
For instance Dalmations are not recommended for people with children as they tend to be threatened by them.
While I personally do not like GSD's I am not against owning anytype of dog in the right situation.
When we go back to Peru this summer we will be getting a Rotti almost right away. We even have a name picked out it's Sampson.
" I'm pretty sure he's passed away now (I was there several years ago and the dog was older then), but the big male that was *his* through and through just chilled on a table while Bruce taught classes. You could tell that dog just thought the world of Bruce."
That was Gunnar. He passed away last year and Bruce thought the world of him as well.
My parents did the same thing when we moved into the country. Dad got a female pup and had her trained somewhere close to Indy. That dog never left my side from when I was 3 years old to 10 years old. She finally ended up getting killed when she put her life on the line when a pack of wild dogs came on our property while I was out playing. She killed two of them but in the fight she got tore up so bad we had to put her down. I would of trusted my life with that dog rather than any human.
I'm actually looking to get one now that my wife and I are moving into the country and getting the dog trained. If you here of any good places keep me updated!

Electronic collars are great training tools.
Not a fan of shock collars...for DOGS
OK, You got me there...FTFY.
they also said to check with your insurance companies bc some of them wont cover you if you have certain breeds and my aunt even said that includes gsd with some companies
