We had two German Shepherd Dogs when my DD was little - they were 8 when she was born (not littermates; just happened to be the same age). They were magnificent with her. The male was especially gentle - the female had the sweetest...

My DD went through this at about 4 - it lasted about 6 months. It was awful - we had a couple of nights where she was so uncomfortable she couldn't sleep, but couldn't/wouldn't poop. She did develop encopresis, where liquid stool leaks...
