A woman intrudes into their home and *they* are the ones which should be put down?

Insanity. Absolute insanity.

Await their fate?? The only fate these dogs deserve is a scratch behind the ears and a nice juicy steak for defending their home against an INTRUDER!

>> Elder believes that the dogs are dangerous and should be destroyed.

GSDs are not big on fair-weather friends.

A visit from a friend into an unlocked home does not necessarily constitute an “intrusion”.
Had she forced her way into a locked dwelling, that would be considered an intrusion.
My good neighbors and I used to walk into each others’ homes routinely without knocking. Of course, their dogs knew me and didn’t react violently. There’s always more to the story, and that applies here, as well.

Oh my! All dogss are teriitorial. My Bostie beomes furious when a workman comes to my house. I don;’t think he would hurt anyone, but he certainly givesw them fair warning. He is my prescious loittle watch dog. Shepherds are good watch dogs. The woman was not very bright to enter a home where the owner was not there to welcome her.

As a former real estate broker, many is the time I had to enter a home, one time with two Dobies. I pointed to the sofa and commanded “Go to bed! and they both obeyed immediately and did not get off the sofa until after my clients and I had left the house.

These poor Shepherds were only doing their job! I say give them a medal and release them back to their owner!

My GF owns a 65-lb female pit bull. Real sweetheart. I took her out to dinner one night and left my 58-lb male Portuguese Water Dog at her house. Next door neighbor came in the house to check on something for us and my PWD had the guy backed up against the door. GF’s Pit just sat there.

He knew both dogs as being “friendly”. But dogs have a strong sense of “place” and will defend it if the owner is not there as a buffer. Will not be asking the neighbor for any similar favors in the future. Don’t want him injured, and my dogs under threat of being euthanized.

Times have changed as evidenced by the comments here. I was bitten two times when I was a kid. Both dogs were immediately destroyed. There was NO question of whose fault it was because human life was more important. Once an animal bites one human there is a high chance it will do it again. This rule applied to all animals. It is a wise and common sense guideline.............

I don’t care much for dogs, but both of these deserve a BIG doggie treat and a trip to the doggie day spa.

I guess I’m having a hard time trying to understand this.

The dogs were not running loose. This was not a random attack.

They were doing what they do by nature...protect.

I don’t know what the circumstances were as to why the lady entered the home.

But I will say this..if my dogs were at risk of being put down because of this situation..I would bite the lady myself.

I am a 100% disabled OIF vet and would adopt those dogs to keep them from being killed.

Agreed. Those GSD’s did their duty. If that judge decrees their murder for defending their home, that judge needs to be removed from the bench.

I know a few German Shepherds. They are oftentimes natural guard dogs who often happen to be extremely friendly when OFF DUTY. I would never walk into a house when the owner of those dogs was not home - even if those doggies know me. Those dogs are on duty.

I wouldn't do that with any dogs, but especially Shepherds. Those dogs did their jobs.
