Lovely to see them like that. We have been loosely associated with a GSD rescue in the past and they hold a weekly walk, where there are sometimes up to 30 GSDs all roaming around together, they all seem to get along very well (well 99% of them!). I'll see if I can find a pic.

Most of them are fairly dignified and quiet, and they are to overburdened with brains. Mine had a serious barking altercation last night outside with an old upright Hoover that had been left out for garbage collection. The Hoover did not respond.

Sounds about as bright as my Rhodesian who's been known to bark at his own shadow ...

In fact, he had an introduction to Great Dane on New Years day this year. We took our dogs to the beach and he's usually one of the largest dogs around and likes to throw his weight around from time to time. Anyway, a rather large Great Dane took a dislike to him and barked at him chased him (at a sedate pace) across the beach ... the look on my dogs face was priceless and all we could do is laugh. It was like a comedy sketch ... a large dog being chased by a giant dog.smile

I'm not au fait with collars but the metal one looks bloody lethal! I assume it's there to stop the dog pulling?
