I once rescued an Australian Shepherd from a co-workers abusive girlfriend. After being beaten and kicked regularly for 2 years it took some time to even get her to let me pat her head. Even a couple of years later she was standoffish of other people[stayed glued to me] and would flinch at any sudden sound.
Five and a half years after I got Blue we happened upon her old “master” at a local lake. I don't know if Blue remembered her or if she took a new disliking to her,either way it was a snarling biting ball of poetic justice that lit on her hind end. Blue seemed much more relaxed after that. She died at 17 in her sleep with her toy fish “nursing” as she wrapped around it. Good Dog.

German Shepherds should have animal rights, which might ensure that an animal is not tortured or starved.

“In that day I will make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field and the birds of the air and the creatures that move along the ground. Bow and sword and battle I will abolish from the land, so that all may lie down in safety.” (Hosea 2:18)

German Shepherds should have animal rights... No, animals should not have rights whatsoever. It is reasonable, however, to criminalize human behaviors regarding mistreatment of animals. This is a very important distinction.

Sadly, anyone can own a dog.Sadly, too, anyone can become a parent. No restrictions whatsoever.

There is nothing like an Aussie. Here's my blue merle, named Sara. I would be blessed if she lives to 17.
