What kind of comments do you get about your GSD?
Most people just love Cookie and I get great comments about her, but still on occasion I get an ignorant comment. Worst one was someone wanting me to put her to sleep just because of her breed because they thought that German Shepherds are man-eaters.
I was upset at that person for quite a while afterwards.
Latest was this guy who walked into the park with his Lab and Cookie started barking at him. His Lab barked back. I told Cookie to stop and guess what, she did.
Then I heard the Lab owner telling his dog that if he didn't quit barking that he thought Cookie would come over and "eat" him.
I was peeved at hearing this, so I stood up in full view of that guy and had Cookie perform some tricks to show how well-behaved she is. Then that guy turns to the person next to him saying something about how "those aggressive dogs are all over the place", while nodding in Cookie's direction. By that point, I was fighting back tears. No one, I mean NO ONE, says something like that about my dog or her breed without my taking big issue with it.
Ignorance is one of my biggest pet peeves.
