My father has been involved in ringsports in the 50's and 60's and changed to other hoobies and breeds than balgians. Now he has an old rotweiler that is realy going downhill. They need a "guarddog" because thier property is accesible from 2 sides and when you're inside someone may steal horses, equipement etc without you knowing it. So last week i took my father looking at some pups and, as predicted, he bought one. Yesterday the little girl arrived tried to buy it from hem but he wouldn't part.
A few weeks ago i had the first competition with my oldest dog. The best trainer in Belgium was there and competed with 2 dogs. His age 86 and his comment was: "You need to train dogs to stay alive"
So no problems
By the way i tested the little one yesterday. Good full bite and sharp teeth. she drew blood (mine ) No fear. even bit the rotweiler in the nose.
