Considered dogdom’s finest all-purpose workers, the German Shepherds are large, agile, muscular dogs of noble spirit and high intelligence.
There are many reasons why GSDs stand in the front rank of canine royalty, but breed experts say their dogs’ most important attribute is character:
…loyalty, courage, confidence, the ability to learn and retain commands for an amazing number of specialized jobs, and the willingness to put their life on the line in defense of loved ones.
While there are a ton of reasons why German Shepherds are so beloved by humans, there are reasons to believe that German Shepherds are actually the worst dog breed to live with… EVER!
Check out the 19 reasons why German Shepherds are actually the worst dogs to live with on the next page!

You bring them up in the right way the are your best friend for life. I’ve had 3 German shepherds and the all been the same. Never be with out one. He says good bye to me when I go work and he wags his tail greeting me when I come home. Love him to bits

I’m calling BS on this. It all depends on how you raise them. If a dog is that bad to live with, then that’s ultimately on the owners.
