Who’s there? The German Shepherd stands in the middle of the yard with her ears pricked up. There was just a sound that doesn’t belong here. What was that? The alert dog listens closely and stretches her neck so she won’t miss anything. She knows the farm inside and out and can tell right away when something is wrong. As a herding dog, she’s unbeatable. Watchful, but friendly with her favourite people — she makes sure everyone can feel safe. Her puppy is never far away either, keeping a close eye on what mum is doing. Maybe he can join the patrol today?
