I have always had German Shepherds, but after my last one passed I got a Dutch Shepherd pup. She is about four months old right now. The breed exists to compete in the Dutch police dog competition. They are very similar to a Belgian Malinois. Both make horrible pets for most families, but in the right hands with a lot of care will produce exceptional dogs, the finest in personal protection. My town is falling apart, drug addicts everywhere. I'm not trying to get girls, I just need a dog that makes dirt bags leave me alone because they are afraid.
