My first bit of advice is dont hang out on dog boards! The breed you are concidering is no less dangerious than the GSD just less known and popular. Many of the dogs that bite people are eather poorly breed "BYB/back yard breeding" or trained to and bite but havent had thre proper or responisable training or care. Do lots of homework when choosing a pup/dog or breed If you like. I know of a nice litter of working line GSD pups on the ground. Send me a PM if you are interested or would like some info.
