oh, i forgot to mention how great maya is with the cats. she doesnt attack them or doesnt come to close to them. She sometimes barks at them for fun and the cats run away haha
she grew up with cats and i have a feeling that maya exactly knows that cats have sharp claws. When hugo just hissed at her she run away sqeaking

and i am so proud of calie and hugo. When mayla sleeps they even come up to smell her

fantastic

hopefully it will be the same with the gsd...but i have a wierd feeling he will be more trouble haha
