:smt022 I know this isn't on the exact topic, but ... I had a German Shepherd that I had recently bought when I got pregnant. I had him for 10 months. But I had to get rid of him because he wouldn't stop jumping on me and I was afaide he would kill or injur my baby. I was completly devistated!! That dog was my dream I had wanted one FOREVER because they say they are thee best dog you can buy for friendship protection and loyalty. An he was my mom was a dog breeder for years and we had tons of diffrent types of dogs and he was thee best dog Ihave ever had! But it because a issue when I got pregnant. I tried my hardest to teach him to stop jumping but I couldnt and obediance training cost way too much!!! So I had to give him away. But even though it was for the best I still miss him in the worst way! He was my best friend and there isn't a day that goes by that I wish I could have afforeded classes to teach him to behave. But my childs safety was my number one consern!
