10 Things German Shepherd Owners Must Never Forget

The German Shepherd Dog is a natural protector and so adaptable and intelligent that he has performed just about every job known to dog. If he had opposable thumbs, he would be unstoppable.

They are highly intelligent and will not be content to live life as a couch potato. He's a dog of action, and needs to live with an active person who will give him a job worthy of his talents.

German Shepherds love children and make great family dogs when they are given early socialization and training.

Most of us think of the German Shepherd as a black and tan dog, but they can also be sable and solid black.

Dogs with white, blue or liver-colored coats are frowned upon by breeders, so don’t fall for marketing claims that those colors are “rare” and command a higher price.

These are some of the things we probably already know about German Shepherd dogs if we live with one. However, there are a few things all German Shepherd owners must remember about these wonderful companions.

  1. My Sugar has been gone for 10 months now. She was my second Shepard mix. This dog was by side through my cancer treatments. Never would leave my side. My first was always by my side and helped me raise my boys. I now have Shepard/Boxer mix we named Zelda. She is 5 months old and yep she is always by my side. We refer to Zelda as Velcro Dog 3.0. Shotzy was the original Velcro Dog. Best breed ever.

  2. Zeus is also rescue, was found in the streets and spent a month in the pound with no one checking in on him– then came me– he is so living and loyal, my protection and my best friend

  3. Buster is 4 next month. Rescue who loves adults and kids but not other dogs- even a behaviourist gave up on him with that !! Love my fur baby though and would not change him for anything. xx
