The English Shepherd

Since I'm adopted, I wanted to find out more about my heritage. I think I've found it. I believe I'm an English Shepherd! Look at the other shepherds on this page. What do you think?

This is me to the right -->

Cute and irristible, I know.

And here below are my possible brothers:

And here is the breed description. Sounds like me!

Energetic, intelligent, very active, agile, courageous and gritty. Fearless for their purpose. Acting immediately when commanded; very responsive to the master's voice. Adapting themselves almost at once to working commands around farm stock. Working characteristics include: strictly low heeling; and very free with the use of their teeth. Also very watchful as guards of the home. Companionable to their master. Primarily a stock dog, the English Shepherd has also traditionally been used for hunting and as a watch dog in addition to being the family pet. Wonderful with children and not generally dog aggressive with other dogs. They are good with other pets if raised with them from puppyhood. Generally friendly dogs, however  they can be reserved with strangers. They make wonderful watch dogs, alerting the owner of approaching strangers.
