Don't even get me started on them. It was pretty funny actually, because when my mother was looking to get another GSD, I told her to go for Schutzhund lines. She blew me off and came back a month later like, "yeah, my vet told me the exact same thing."

Her GSD can be a wimp, due to my mom's babying, but she steps up when needed, like when she treed a bear. I just get frustrated because my mother honestly does not understand dog behavior and thinks my Border Collie is "mean and unsocilized" becuase he fought her dog over a frisbee. She doesn't get that stuff like that is part of a dog just being a dog.

LOL, well GSDs like all dogs, including apbts, are really sensitive towards humans. I can get my dog to off another dog just by yelling at him, though a break stick is still carried and I'd prefer to not have this happen again. Too many people with dogs off leash and the owners don't realize that their dogs can easily jump over a 4 foot fence. Twice I've had a dog jump over my fence, one of which was my neighbor's mutt. Because of this, I can't even put my dog outside on his chain spot while unsupervised. It sucks to have to crate him for 4 hours a day, but that is what was mandated in court. "my dog climbed the fence to play with your dog and your dog attacked my dog!!!!" is what they actually told me, but they don't understand dog behavior. Their dog was baring teeth and was barking aggressively, but because his tail is wagging, they think it is play.
