Strangely enough,I got a call from a lady just an hour ago,she's split from her partner,he owns the house,and she had 2 dogs,1shepherd ,5 years old ,one lab,12 months old,shepherd is a serious guard dog, brought up with a young girl,so great with kids,..the lab is a friendly dog,both free to a good home....anyone looking for a dog to mind their property /kennels,in Ireland ,there's a good shepherd available I'm told,broken to horses too as an addition
