Facebook page.Seeking a few forums and perhaps my search is too broad. The issue I'm having is that when I search 'temperment' 'behavior' 'traits' I land on a bunch of threads like this that carries the words.
Please share some threads from an authoritative poster like one of you DS experts, because there are many of you.
I'm the owner that was searching to adopt a GSD and landed on a DS, to realize that our temperaments/personality/ on off switch, click so well.
With that said, I'm looking for conventional behavior, intelligence, traits, hard coded DS things to know.
There are a lot of DOs and DONTs and I want to read them.

Re: New- requesting forum search guidance
I think a lot of what you're looking for is going to be present in threads where someone is having a problem and is looking for help. That might make it trickier to search. Maybe think of things you want to know about. For example, separation anxiety. Try searching just THAT, then search more related keywords; whining, crying, chewing, etc. Would that be helpful?

Re: New- requesting forum search guidance
yes, you need to search specifics. If you are not sure what you are looking for, then you may want to start just reading through the threads and write down any other questions that come up. and either search that or ask.
