I’m surprised they are allowed to have this kind of dog in England.

I mean just the name of the breed, German Shepard, is hateful. I mean the German part dredges up the old nationalistic ideas of the past and have no place in the current European Union.

Then there’s the word shepard. It’s religious implications and meaning imply that the government isn’t doing enough to care for people such as this baby. Its downright hateful and terribly offensive.

Just as a point of information (without commenting on the general tenor of your post), German Shepherds have more commonly been known as ‘Alsatians’ in Britain. Although German Shepherd is now the approved breed name (approved, that is, by the Kennel Club, which is the national authority for such things), Alsatian is still widely used.
