Excelling in anything they are trained to do, German Shepherds are versatile working dogs. They are bred to herd, then were utilized in police and military service known as K9.

GSDs are very active and intelligent. They need regular exercise and thorough training and socialization. Although GSDs are reserved and athletic, they hate being left alone. They prefer indoors and where they can be close enough to guard you.

Socialization can help them become confident since they are not generally friendly. It may take some time but once they get used to it, they will be your most devoted and fearless companions.

GROOMING YOUR GERMAN SHEPHERD

With double coat and medium length hair, German Shepherds are also called as German Shedders. Although GSDs shed once or twice a year, better get used to brushing and vacuuming. They do not smell easily, so give them a bath only when necessary. Do not leave their nails untrimmed or else it will cause them pain and discomfort.
