I think you think I'm saying German Shepherds are evil. I'm not. Do I rank them as mean or aggressive as Pitt Bulls or Rotts? Nope. Do I rank them as aggressive as a doberman - it depends on the dog. But by comparison to a lot of other dogs I've seen - German shepherds can be very territorial and quite aggressive if they feel threatened. More so than any Golden Retriever or labrador or Irish setters I've been around. But what do I know. I'm just full of it. lol
