Pet Peeve
</hdr>
<body>
<p>By Emily Mitchell
</p>
<p> Like the other 6,500 East German Mauerhunde, or Wall dogs,
along the old fortified borders, Asta, 4, faced an uncertain
fate after the barriers came down. Then an animal-protection
society arranged adoption by the Ahrndt family of Hannover.
Alas, the German shepherd has turned out to be a pussycat.
Instead of guarding against intruders, she welcomes anyone into
the cottage of her owners. A mother as of March, Asta also
seems homesick. She has yet to set paw into her master's Ford,
but leaped happily into a visitor's East German-made Trabant
and expected to be driven away.
