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!

The only thing that might not make this breed the right one would be that they tend to select one master within a family, but most breeds have this characteristic, l know personally that this is one super smart hard working loving breed, live the dog an see

I think its how you treat them, all dogs can be dangerous, and when walking down the street, some one says to you will it bite, you cannot speak for a dog, but hope fully they don”t. That is my account of dogs.

Don’t agree, it is allways the owner who is to blame. You shouldn’t buy such an intelligent
Dog, unless you have read a book telling you what to expect
From such a wonderful breed The German Shepherd.
