fair point , ive only seen a couple and like your self they deff weren't like that young dog, ok it still only a pup , but it not got the bone of a presser . the temp put me off them they never seemed relaxed /friendly even with there owner , but maybe its just the breed temp, i rather have a well bred gsd, they loyal and love there owners and would die for them if i wanted big heavy looking type guard i prob go for a rottie, but 80lb male gsd would stop most people.
Exactly why they aren't my thing. If i wanted a guard dog i would get a GSD, malinois or similar as i feel i
