I just had an incident with my neighbor that reminded me how much we need to keep on our guard especially with a breed that is still regarded by some as dangerous.
I've had Copper, a 3 1/2 year old fawn male, since late April. He is totally laid back and a big marshmallow....normally. My neighbor (who is good buddies with my husband) came over to our fenced in area saying copper's name but he had a cordless drill in his hand that he thought was funny to point and run it at him. Well Copper got very upset about that and when the neighbor went to put his hand over the fence and pet him, I had a bad feeling and told him "no, wait!" Copper was in a defensive mode. Our neighbor put the drill down and came in quietly and Copper was fine. He turned back into his normal wiggle butt self. I'll never say my dog won't bite because one never knows. He's a protector and he felt there was a threat.
I did have a female that I was near positive would never bite anyone but who knows in the right situation (?)
I think a lot of people on here are smart enough to recognize this but I think it is a good reminder.
