German Shepherds

[66bunny]

Hello. I'm planning to buy German Shepherds because two weeks ago, may nakapasok sa garahe namin. We used to have dogs, kaso askals lang. I need a guard dog.

Anybody can give me contact numbers? And how much a 2 month old puppy costs? I need a good breed.

Thanks.

bunny, i suggest you get a rottweiler.

[pajerokid]

yep. or a pitbull para attack dog na rin.

Naisip ko rin ang pits and rotts, kaso may mga tenants kami at mga bata. German Shepherd na lang at least trainable.

I heard rotts and especially pitts aren't kid friendly. Plus takot din ako sa mga ganyang breed!

[1D4LV]

agree bunny.

did you guys saw the last episode of FEAR FACTOR, ang tindi nung mga attack dogs, sabi nga nung isang contestant Damn that bulldog is on steroids.

unang kakagat sa yo GS or Belgian Malinois, merong Dobe last yung Bulldog.

before getting a dog..magtanong tanong ka muna po...malaking responsibility yan...hindi lang pwede ung kasi kailangan niyo ng guard dog...

our german sheperd has been with us for quite sometime na..and he is indeed a very good guard dog....training is another thing to cinsider...bali wala po siya kung hindi lang din sumusunod sayo at walang proper behavior and attitide...

food in another consideration...magastos ang pagkain...hindi lang yan basta basta tira tira...

pero kung may pera ka naman....ayos na ayos talaga yan....adaptable sila sa kahit anong environment..wag lang po sobrang init...ma he heat strok mga yan chaka maglalagas ang buhok.

goodluck!

hmm...when getting rotweillers or pit bulls(these breeds are somewhat related, right?), konting ingat lang. i'm no expert, but i hear that those particular breeds have a tendency to just go insane and attack people(owners included) at random. Something in their genes/breeding kuno(can anyone verify?)

Ung pit bulls i hear are specifically bred for fighting, so particularly vicious and strong...

i also hear na sa US drug lords do keep pit bulls for "dog fights", and as a sideline, "executioners" for dealers/users gone astray(this sounds a bit like urban legend to me though)

Sa pagkakaalam ko nga, there's a clamor in the US to ban breeding of pit bulls, since talagang unstable ang breed na un

i guess you have to have them trained somewhat din...dami na ako na encounter na big dogs(even pedigrees), kala mo kung gaano katapang e titigan mo lang ng masama e tatakbo na B)....while on the other hand, ung ibang askal e ginagamit pang hunting dogs

GlennSter,

I have friends who used to breed German Shepherds, sayang nga at di pa ako kumuha sa kanila nung time na yun. I got advices na rin from GSD owners too. What confuses me there are two types of GSD: show type and working line. The former is more expensive, the latter is aggressive. Difference? The latter's stance is mataas ang puwitan, parang askal. The show type is pababa, parang may slant. I was advice also to get a blood line from working line since they're more of a guardian dog. The show type are kinda friendly to strangers. For me it doesn't matter as long as it guards the house. I'll do more research and buy a book soon. I love dogs since I was a kid. Na miss ko lang ulit ang presence nila. I'm gonna start with a puppy and train him as it grows.

Don't worry about the food. I have resources for that.

Hmmmm.....magastos pala magakaroon ng German Shepperd. Eh, kung Doberman, parehas din siguro gastos.

He-he-he! Stick na lang ako, sa aso kong ASKAL, si Gloria, okay magbantay, konting kaluskos lang sa bakuran namin, tahol agad. Hindi pa mapili sa pagkain.

ayos naman pala...well...show type dogs are for...well....SHOWS!they are expensive talaga..daming kaming friends dati binebentahan kami ng champ na talaga...220k lang naman...herhehrehrehr...

hindi mo kailangan nun..ung akin anak ng champion...pero pinakapangit sa magkakapatid un....but still...he has a robust stance that can kill.may muntik na nga mapatay ito eh.biglang dinakma sa leeg ung tumatakbong tao.sa sobrang lakas hindi nakayanan ng dad ko ung hila niya, nag tumbling sila nung mama sa gitna ng kamias...grabe kakatakot.tapos ito galit na galit sa mga askal.kaya may isang askal na kinagat sa tagiliran tapos winagwag...ayun..tanggal ang laman sa gilid.labas ang ribs...kakatakot nun.but now he is tamer and more disciplined.

goodluck sa pagbili...you just need an ordinary shep from a good line!!

keep us posted!
