but she kept it up, and I was right. what was cute for a few month old puppy was not cute in a BEAR size animal. it took me 6 months to finnally break him of that habit.
Yep, seen that one before. My daughters teacher has a 2 year rottie bitch and she was always allowed to run at them and jump up to lick them. Well last october when her husband came home from work, as normal Keira came running at full sted from the kitchen towards him to welcome him home but, instead of jumping up at him, she ran into his leg (obviously not deliberate) and shattered his knee to the point he had to have an operation to pin his knee back together and is still on crutches!!!
Than less then 2 weeks later she broke the wifes hand by accident whilst they were out walking!!!
