Made a new best German friend today
by Dave Sat Jun 07, 2014 12:49 am
So a lot of you know I work for a big German company and my position means I deal with German colleagues on a regular ( daily basis )
You can't end up not chatting other than work and normally with me the conversation usually stops short at the dogs .
What Breed ?
Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Oh fighting dog
The end !!
Well today was different talking of weekend plans , mentioned I have a show Sunday and my friend asked if I had some pictures of my show dog , tentatively sent some and said please don't be scared and don't believe the papers !!
She loved him , only turns out her Aunt in America is a Pit Bull lover and rescuer and she has spent a lot of time with the breed on holidays etc , and as I said in another post tonight love one love em all
Very unusual for Germans as they either tolerate the breed or speak up against them , to find an admirer is almost totally unheard off ( apart from the breeding community of course which is not that big in Germany as far as I can see as a lot of states do not allow the breed )

Great story Dave!
When I worked heavily with Germans I had a Dobermann (until she died) but for some reason I never mentioned her to my German colleagues - maybe I should have!
Wishing you all the best for your show tomorrow - Rock On Tommy
