Isn't that the cold hearted truth? Thanks for the praise, I bought her in Germany a little over 4 years ago took her from the bitch on the 47th day and stayed there for almost two months before I put her through customs. The only persons that can get between her and me are my daughters, say a prayer if you aren't one of my girls. She is very protective of me, and I came to find out that she guards my 88 year old widow next door. She is extremely gentle with my neighbor. Only her, none of my other neighbors are as fortunate. She won't hurt them but she won't let them get between us. The best canine friend I've ever been blessed to have.
