i took fred for an extra long walk today and we ended up at the racecourse.... it was completely empty so we had the full run of it.... not that he left my bloomin side much :2431:... we walked from one end to the other a couple of times before we started to head back to go home.... on the way there was a man coming across the field he looked quite scruffy and dishevelled and i was thankful i wasnt on my own.... i waited until he wasnt too close before i threw freds ball,last thing some people want is a large gsd thundering past them lol.... fred went and got his ball.... but on the way back...he stopped, his hackles and tail went up and he stalked closer towards the man.... i shouted him back before he went for him... he came back but stopped twice and looked at the man as he walked slowly back to me... so i leashed him just incase ...

i have no ides why fred was like this.... we go to all sorts of places and fred doesnt bother with people, he can happily trot right past them...

i wonder if the man WAS dogdy and fred sensed this ... i certainly felt safe anyway

Sounds like he may of been hun, dogs do know, bless Fred, he may of been telling him to piss off from you hun :san50: well done Freddy

i was thankful he was there lol.... you just never know nowadays..... :nhy: .... on the way home we passed lots of people and he never bothered with them ....

Just the boy you need hun to know your safe

..... we seem to have bonded closer since he came back from zeps... he's always been my lad, a mummys boy... but we click more now if you kwim lol....

yep, it must be great to have a dog who is great with people but can sense a baddie

*touch wood* lol....

he used to be the same if we passed anyone who was drunk lol...

I want him now, right now ok

:2431: when he next play up.... hes on his way to wales :2445: :2445:

he can teach Bryn how to look after me

:2431: bryn would look after you if he had too hun, i was always unsure about whetehr fred would look out for me, but these past few weeks have proved he would

weve been walking through lots of woodland recently, and he always runs back to check where i am lol.... he will run right past the OH and tia... straight to me, then hes off again :2431:

Bryn always does that as well hun, but it's for me to protect him :2445: :2445:

:san42: :san42: :san42: i can just imagine him running for protection :2431:

hes still a baby yet hun... males always take longer to mature :san42:

:2222: sounds like Gazi's excuse as well :san42:

:san42: :san42: any male species takes longer to mature hun ... fact :2431:
