If you could make your pet understand one thing, what would it be?
Rules and discipline are for Sly, our GSD, like candy is to be eaten. He chews out the rules, trying to break them by being cute, cuddly, and loving. When he’s like that, I forget to enforce the rules!

Sly, the GSD, is my favorite animal, not only because he’s our pet, but because his character is as sly as can be, loving, cuddly, but extremely protective. Mostly, if anyone he doesn’t know approaches my daughters, he’s immediately ready to attack. He loves to play in the snow and behaves like a gentle baby, while amongst us.

I used to hate dogs as a child, as our guard dog, a Doberman, at the time, hat been out of his cage without my knowledge. It was a special day, I was wearing a red skirt and white top, with 2 brown braids over my shoulders. I ran into the yard, excited, speaking loudly to be heard over the sound of my siblings’ loud voices, suddenly, I felt a huge weight on my shoulders, and a heavy breath exhaling, as the dog quickly snapped on my braids. I screamed and ran, unknowing he’d be right behind me! A friend caught me by the arm and moved me out of the dog’s way, as something else attracted its attention. Since then, I’ve always been scared of dog’s, till we got our GSD, puppy Zeus. We was so tiny, a ball of affection, but nippy. He became my protector and was jealous of my husband if he came close to me. Zeus would move his entire cage to get to me if he felt I was unhappy or threatened.
From then on, I have a loving relationship with GSDs. The picture is of our current GSD, Sly, taking a well-earned moment after chasing a ball!
