Fekin Dogs.

I use too have a couple of terriers and often thought if I left them , would they sort out there pack status obviously one coming out the dominant one , ....trouble with that is you may have a dead dog and even a costly vet bill

Didn't he kill a little pup as well they other year jig for no reason ?

My brother has got a young GSD as a gaurd at he's front gate anyway the other day for no reason whilst out walking she got stuck into a tiny little bushing terrier he's lad has got and tore a fair size hole in her . He wasn't happy either as it was for no reason and he said it was a bit of a snide attack . But same as yourself she does a good job so she stays .

yeah marshman,2 yrs back he killed a bitch pup,I have him sepparate from the kennels now,he guards the only entrance into the home now,you wouldnt mind but it was the first time in months I took him out,my daughter walks him every day and jogs with him,Its my last time taking him anywhere again for a while,

Should have left them down a bit longer, I can guarantee the Shepherd wouldn't be doing it again...

 

yeh true that , should have let them sort it out there and then. as you know ive got 1x gsd x grey Buck , he great with people and likes other dogs, but I am well aware what he could do if he got nasty to people and dogs, by what he can do in the field , he would wreak my most other dogs deff , with his size+ power plus the speed of the greyhound and his strong jaw he do a lot of damage . Him and Bryn get on very well there in the same kennel but have there own sleeping compartments just leave the door open so either one can go for a piss at night , but I did wonder when reading this post if they ever did kick off, Bryn would be in big trouble if Buck started on him , but Bryn top dog he 8 next month ,Buck 3 year old and they live happy with that . where I lived before there was bloke who had pit or it had a lot in it looked near enough one, as iwas brought up with them, staffs, bullmastiffs so got good idea what it was, I put a post on here before about it. it had very good temp, good with people and dogs but feck was rough in its play, it was about 20in 45lb there about , but strong as fook. Buck very strong dog 28in 86lb , he was knocking this dog down lots of times got his heads over it neck lot times, like he does with other dogs, most times he flattens them lol. But this pit or what ever it was never gave up , he kept coming back for more lol, he wore Buck out he come back to fecked , this pit didn't he wanted to carry on lol .A gsd are deff powerful dogs with good bite on them, but a well bred pit in a different league , as your gsd would have found out it will happen again the gsd got to know who the boss in the yard , and it wont be him , he got to find this out for him self keep a eye on them , don't leave them alone or you get a dead gsd , and very badly bitten pit .

 

no Ray it wont happen again,Theres a gate and a walk way between the shepherd and the rest of the dogs,they cant get near each other,but in fairness in 4 years I have him he never causes trouble as such with the dogs,even when I let the lurchers out to walk em,he jumps about and acts the prick but no aggression.The wife was there last night and she adores the pit,he sleeps in the house most times,there was no way i could allow it to continue,and if I did I believe there would be 2 very pulverised dogs and a hatred between them for ever,this I take it was a 1 off but they wont get the oppertunity of a rematch,of that I can assure ye.

My older GSD would have tried to be the senior dog with my ridgeback when it was alive but no matter how often he tried he always came off second best. The ridgeback was a little bit smaller than him and very laid back but was to powerful for him.

My pup GS is now trying it on with the older GSD and gets put in his place fairly sharpish but he still goes back for more.

Maybe it's just something in their make up.

How come you didnt go for another ridgeback mate?

 

I've only ever had one dealing with a ridgeback and it was abit of a nervous wreck. However few people on here swear by them as guard dogs.

I GS breeder I knew had a litter and her dogs are all straight back and I had my eye on them for a couple of years.

When my older GS goes I'll get another ridgeback then. They're fantastic all rounders with kids, guarding etc. Very hardy dogs even though they are short hair.

I've heard they can be nervous if you're to hard when they're pups but if you treat them right they'll take on the world for you. I can't recommend them enough.

Has he still his balls Liam? I noticed a marked change with the Flynn dog after he got chop.. Luckily Ragnar hasn't that psycho streak as he could do serious damage if he wanted

[Lenmcharristar 9,889]

jig you donethe right thing by showing the dogs that you wont tolerate them fighting with eachother, could start bad habits in kennels then everything goes tits up. peace n harmony is always best in kennels. and the field

[Casso 1,261]

Does the shepherd have a proper outlet for his energy , not just walking and trotting I mean a full blown grab and shake the living f**k out of a sleeve or item every now and then ,

 

Some mutts need to get up close and personal as a way of relieving tension as the specific breed was designed for,

May not happen for a while but at some stage in the future that shepherd will Need to release huge amount of tension into something

Look at it this way Jig , if the dog is constantly getting wound up in his daily environment , every time he sees something that causes him to bark or get excited , he can't off load that excitement its stored gradually, over time the dog will reach boiling point , and it will only need a trigger , hopefully your there at that point ,

But you can destress the mutt on a tug item or sleeve bringing his charge back to zero again

yeah gem, and i still have one of mine lol...i was wondering would his intensity to guard diminish if I had him neutered?not sure on that matter.

thats my thinking always,never allow it and it doesnt become a built up hatred towards each other,i had it years ago with 2 terriers,they hated the sight of each other all their lives,i had to make sure they never even saw each other.2 superb workers also which is why I put up with the problem.

casso I never let him near anyone at all,I never thought of it that way either,makes sense,but after hes started with shake rattle and roll destressing,whats the chances his excitement/temper might over run his logical thinking(can dogs think logically)and he turn on the nearest person to him,or would it have the opposite effect and relax him.As I said its my daughter that has full run of him,I just feed him and drive him and her out for a swim runabout etc.I was thinking of bringing him to a dog trainer to see what he reckons,a schutzhund class possibly.All Im after is a big scary mutt to keep them pricks that were calling fairly frequently to me out.I havent seen any one try come over the wall since hes been here,mind saying that,the few friends I have dont call too much either lol
