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!

Apollo understood English better than some of our friends and never had to be told twice. He was too overprotective of our children, even our youngest when he was first born. He was so overprotective that my son couldn’t go on a marry go round or else Apollo would grab a pant leg and pull him off. He was horrible to walk on a leash, but wouldn’t run away when free. He was great in the vehicles, except when he wanted attention. He always slept with us or our oldest child. He would cry and act up if he had to sleep alone. He would chew my shoes up if he was left home alone for more than a few hours. He would never allow someone in. People had to knock and be welcomed in first. He always wanted to hug everyone. I gotta unlike this page now because it is too much for me to see and read the posts on here.
