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!
