At Vom Haus Dettmer, we hope
to show our Long Coat German
Shepherds and puppies doing a number of
things from resting, eating,
training and playing.
Hopefully, this provides you a
picture (from afar) of our dog's
even-temperament and their superior
athletic ability for which this
breed, the German Shepherd, is so
very well-known to exhibit.
Keep in mind, our long hair
German Shepherds have been 'groomed'
and 'taught' to be tolerant of their
other pack members. We are
also VERY experienced in this type
of multi-dog environment. We
know our German Shepherds, their
temperaments and 'body language'.
I would
suggest that you don't group
together multi-strange dogs, especially, those 'intact' in serious
play without supervision and
experience. This could be very
dangerous if the dogs are not sound,
even-tempered, and respectful of
their pack leader.
Be very careful
of dog parks where dogs are allowed
to roam free and where any number of
'personalities' are present. Your
dog looks to you to be the leader
and protect him/her.
Always keep
your dog under your control and
within a 'safe' zone when dealing
with strange dogs.
*****A WORD OF CAUTION,
IF YOUR DOG SHOULD BECOME INVOLVED
IN A DOG FIGHT, do not, DO NOT, GO
FOR COLLAR OF THE FIGHTING DOGS!!!!
THIS IS THE WORST PLACE TO GRAB A
FIGHTING DOG. YOU ARE MOST
LIKELY TO GET BIT. If your dog
is attacked, or becomes involved in
a dog fight and your command don't
stop the fight, put something
between yourself and the two dogs, a
fence, shovel, stick, but do not
grab the collar! Grabbing the
tails would be better than the
collars of two fighting dogs, but
seeking help would be best.
Call 911 for help, if necessary!
