Lost my German Shepherd Dog

sorry, deleted my comment because it isn't worth making.

Thanks asuhuassain, but I figured it was a duel of wits with an unarmed opponent, hence the deletion.

German shepherds are way too attached to its owner and its premises. So expect him to turn up at your doorstep. If he is stolen, the thief will soon release him because of his "impeccable" manners.. :-)
I own a German Shepherd and know the breed really well now.. :-(
Anyway I pray that you get back your dog soon. It hurts. Someone who does not have a dog will not know the pain you are going through. So please ignore the idiotic comments..

sorry..

but,the truth hurts..

if the dog has become part of the family,
the animal was not watched over very well..

so it was able to escape..

D-I's signature line says it all.. :-(

No it says "dog lost or stolen".

give a description of your dog with a pic, via mail, so we can post it in our lost and found pages.

Doha_infidel, with the best will in the world, nothing is impossible. My animals are locked behind a gate, day in and day out, and I am padantic about keeping the gate closed. When anyone enters or exits, I put the dogs in the house, but I am still worried about them getting out.

Believe me, if my dogs get out of my property, its not because I didn't care enough to check the gate (sometimes up to 4 times). Its because it was an accident or someone stole them.

Sorry Doha Infidel - you can do a you tube search on dog escape artists, some are extremely good at it.

As for the picture or description, a German Shepherd unless he is all black or a white shepherd is pretty much the general description.

All of us dog owners try to be very careful about our pets, but we can't control outside factors.

I've owned dogs for 20 years. Cancer was their killer. So am I a neglectful dog owner for not being able to control that?

The OP maybe? was trying to be generous in his description (and hoping to get his dog back) as there are many idjits here (and all around the world) who see German Shepherds as fighting dogs (and therefore "useful" in dogfighting - very popular criminal activity in the GCC) when in fact they are NOT.
