I have had so many problems with dogs that I sure wouldn't trust a dog that the shelter says would make a good livestock dog... especially since they are only 9 months old. Lots of puppy issues, non-existent training... yeah, not so much.

Many times all people look at is the breed. Some instincts are bred into dogs but they have to be brought out with training.

Did you know the Doberman was bred to be a farm dog? Herr Doberman wanted a smart dog that could help with chores around the farm and used as many as 100 different breeds to achieve his goals.

Your worthless fact for today.

Call the local shelters and surrounding vet offices to let them know of the missing dog so they can keep tabs on what comes in...

Exactly. The dog may have been bred with tendencies towards certain behaviors (such as the desire to guard) but without a guiding hand in the right direction, they aren't trustworthy.

Interesting fact about the dobies... I didn't know that!

surprisingly, with the cold weather I haven't taken any pictures. Maybe I will take some tonight while we are washing birds! That is always fun. I plan to wash the BTW so that will be fun for everyone!
