Terrified By German Shepherds

The German Shepherd terrifies me.
More than any animal I see.
So I stay away,
Every single day
In his giant jaws my flesh I see.

I tell you, I was terrorized by a sneaky one when I was five, and I doubt I will ever get over it.

We had a German Shepherd when i was young so I sigh when I see one with his cute perky ears and black and brown coloring. Especially remember when I would pretend cry and he turned his head sideways.

That is hilarious! Maybe if this one would have been a puppy or not had such a LARGE head.

I was standing next to one of those in a check out line once, not knowing what kind of dog it was. The check out girl knew and was having a fit.

Never been bitten but when we were small we used to walk by a lady's house whose German Shepherd was sometimes sleeping on the other side of the porch doors. When we got right in front of those doors he would put out his GIANT head and BARK LOUDLY at us, scaring us every time.

I can relate to this. I'm damn scared of dogs. However, I love their hospitality :)

I love almost every other dog, although I am scared of Doberman's also. None of the others that I know scare me. I have had a chow that everyone was terrified of except for me.
