Getting a pup....rottweiler or german shepherd? Hey guys, this may be an old topic but I'm thinking of buying a puppy in the fall, I'm purchasing a house that's on an acreage near a college where I work at (Grad student/future employee) I have a lot of time to spend with the dog and train it and stuff, I'm just really torn between a german shepherd and a rott. Somehow I think of g.s. as more affectionate, family dogs whereas the rott is more of a guardian for the family (I've heard some people say they can't hug their rotts too much cuz they need space?) What are your opinions on the matter? |
