And nobody got bit. | I know how you feel about this breed and your own dog moondog. The same as me, can't seem to get enough. But I feel to put them down when sick etc it is a huge sacrifice. I was never selfish when it came to this. I also feel it was an even bigger sacrifice to keep Rommel around to live a great life. I had to work around his temperment in order to keep him, work and sacrifices are the key. I did accomplish this without putting him down before his time at 13 yo.
