Thinking about getting a dog for the kids. Only problem, the rescue shelters don't have the breeds I can tolerate. I'd like to get a German Shepard since they tend to be fanatically loyal to children.

They are awesome. If I ever get a dog it will be a German Shepherd. :)

Canine raciss.
Shepards and shepard mixes are rare, but they do show up from time to time.


Also, breed identification by sight is inaccurate.  What looks like a pit bull isn't always a pit bull, and there are many types.  DNA breed testing is available for about $50 a test.

QuoteVisual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most of the dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and do our best to describe each dog based on personality, not breed label.

So there.

I am guilty of canine racism. I really can't stand a lot of breeds of dogs. Especially pugs. Ugh.

They're the PT Cruisers of the dog world, man.

Pfft. My family's dog growing up was awesome. :wub:

Anyway, next time I have a dog, I want a french bulldog.
