She is a lovely dog. Go for it. I just lost my Bernese mountain dog cross with German sheppard this January and he was a wonderful pet great with kids of all ages, I also grew up with my grandfathers GSD he had been abused you had to be careful with him, but I never had problems with him. Here is a pic of Travis..

"she said she trusts her enough that she has would have no problem leaving her child alone with dog"

And this statement came from a "rescuer"??????? I wouldn't trust a Peke alone with a child, never mind a 85 lb dog!! What an incredibly irresponsible statement!!!!! Who is the person or org you may be getting her from?

Do you have obedience classes near your home? (obedience is also for bonding ) Do you now have the funds to vet her if needed? Have you actually studied this breed? I don't mean flit through a couple of 50 page books, or read things here and there on the web....I mean in depth studied? I too remember all the drama Damien had to endure from you because you did not know the breed. ( just the facts mamm )

I was here too but I think and hope that she has learned a lot since then and will not hesitate to ask more questions if she has problems. But if you start beating up on her if she does need help she will not ask.So why cant we give her the benefit of the doubt and wish her luck and know she can come here and ask questions. HEIDIHO Definitely take an obedience class it is for you and the dog it will help bond you two. Also remember it takes time and not to push her to bond it will happen as she starts to trust you. It by no means happens overnight you have to earn trust. Just be patient and talk to her a lot I find they get used to your voice and makes them feel safer the more they get to know you.

I do not think melanie is being rude. She is just giving her opinion, which is entitled to do.

She did not name-call (unlike YOU heidi) and I certainly understand her concerns.

I think heidi made a mistake with Damien. Taking on a high-energy puppy is a challenge, and in this case it didn't work. We all make mistakes, and the only bad part is if we do not learn from them. I think all of us hope that heidi has learned something, and won't repeat her mistake.

heidi, there is no reason for you to fly into a rage because one person may not agree with you. That is hardly reasonable or mature, is it? This is a message board, and when you publicly post, you can hardly demand that everyone agree with you.

I have deleted your profane name-calling, and don't want to see any more of it. Mature people can discuss issues without swearing.
