I firmly believe that if a dog is treated with love and respect they will be wonderful pets. I have had dogs my entire life and I have never had a problem. I have had German Shepherds, Labs, Golden Retrievers, Cocker Spaniels, Pugs, a Dingo/ Red Heeler mix, Corgi, etc. I now have a Great Pyrenees and what I call my Venezuelan street dog (Alexander and Scout, respectively). We think Scout is a mix of German Shepherd/Labrador/Pit Bull. She is smart, goofy, and energetic. Alexander is a huge love bug. In other words, great dogs. All dogs are great until humans bring ugliness.
