It isn't! My husband just finally said I could get a dog when we move but I want a calm one that can get along with my cats.
golden retrievers are pretty cool
Yes, Baxter is very calm and sweet. But he is 6. Until he was about 3 he was quite a handful.Can German Shepards be nice and calm?
Baxter has perfect hips. But has lymphoma. So it's a toss up - YMMV. Is he the best dog ever? Yes. Will I ever go without a German Shepherd again? No.If you get one from good stock and train it well, but German Shepherds as they are now have a lot of health issues, mainly having to do with their hips.

Ah, I didn't know Boxers had issues, too. Sad thing is, they often happen because of stupid people meddling too much. sighYes, it's one of those breeds like Dalmatians or Boxers, where if you want a dog you have to make absolutely sure they come from stellar stock from a reputable breeder or you're rolling the dice on serious health problems down the road.
Something like 40% of Boxers end up dying from some form of cancer, it's a huge issue in the breed right now.Ah, I didn't know Boxers had issues, too. Sad thing is, they often happen because of stupid people meddling too much. sigh
