Actually, Greman Shepherds are some of the nicest, calmest and most patient dogs. They're great for family, and the reason the police uses them is because of their high intelligence. I had a German Shepherd named Pedro. He was so sweet. Mostly black and very thin throughout his whole life, he loved everyone and never even tried to hurt another being. He was 14 years old when he died. It was really scary, actually. He had cancer somewhere near his spine, as it turned out. One day he just lay down and couldn't get up... The cancer was also the reason he was so thin. Ironically enough, even though he was younger and weaker than all the rest of his siblings, he lived the longest. That dog really had a will to live - he got seriously sick because of a tick twice, and yet he lived a long life... God, do I miss him...
Now I've got two cats. Couldn't get a dog, because it's kind of a trauma, but it was really empty in the apartament. I love my cats, they are so interresting to look at, you can see them plan and scheme... But it's different from having a dog. I can't say, which is better, because neither is. It's just a completelly different story...
