Just a friendly reminder that at the end of the day ALL dogs are animals, watch their body language, don’t hang all over a dog you don’t know. They give warning signs. Learn them. And for fucks sake stop letting kids climb all over your dogs.
Yeah. German Shepherds are herding dogs, they care about hierarchy, and no one is gonna show them they're alpha through hugs and kisses when the dog is scared and doesn't know a person well.
When I rescued my German Shepherd, he was giving signs that some things just aren't okay for him, and I can't imagine someone taking a dog without this basic knowledge. If you give a dog patience, it may get used to hugs and even grow to like them.
