After having owned six beautiful Shepard's in my lifetime, I will always trust their instinct when it comes to people. Only one of my six ever went for someone in my presence. That person, who lived across the road from me, was later exposed as a Pedo and arrested. Extra doggie treats for my girl that day.
Agreed. I had this one friend that my German Shepherd always cornered, even with 5 other people there. That guy had a bit of a drug issue, but was an ok guy. I think the dog just picked up on his vibe. Maybe German Shepherds have a better 6th sense than most other breeds.
My dad had rescued one that had been run over, crushed hips. He never ran very well after that and was the warehouse "guard' dog. I would run from one end of the warehouse to the other, playing with him, then wrestle with him afterwards. The most powerful dog I had ever known but also the most gentle.
Named Chester, after the Gunsmoke guy.
He did always sneak up behind the UPS guys and nail them in the leg. I guess they were some shady people. They have excellent taste in people.

I guess they can smell pedophilia.
