not-attack dog

Tonight we only walked around the block. I had intended the big block walk, but it was too cold to stay out for that long.

Anyway, I was telling Kane about German Shepherds working with the British Army in Afghanistan, but he couldn't understand why they would attack other people, or do work for that matter. Kane thinks all dogs should just want to make friends with other dogs and humans.

The dogs, trained in attack or bomb detection, proove extremely valuable in the dangerous region

Kane is absolutely gorgeous and lucky to have such a wonderful owner who obviously loves him very much.
