And yes, she's shepherd, so I suppose she could rip a face off of an intruder, if she decided that licking him to death wasn't going to work. But still... She intimidates pizza men and paper boys every day. It's reasonable. It's half the reason I have her. I love the dog, but I also like the home security. And I know that all you other dog owners out there that have intimidating dogs appreciate the fact that if some f'r was creeping out your window, your dog would scare them right off. So why is everyone denying that dogs are threatening and potentially dangerous? Why does everyone start acting like there are always worse breeds out there, when the fact remains that DOGS bite PEOPLE?
We all have our fears. People that are afraid of heights have the luxury of simply staying out of tall buildings. Sliver happens to have a neighbour with ~4 rottis? I wouldn't really want that neighbour, and I love dogs, and particularly rottis. Why is this so unbelievable for you guys?

I know I'm new here, but think about this analogy:
Someone starts the cars kill people thread die to far of driving? High lighting every accident and suicide?
