The German Shepherd

in #pets7 years ago

In German: Deutscher Schäferhund

It is considered by many as the dog breed par excellence, either by its characteristics as a faithful dog, excellent guardian and defender of their own, However, those dogs were not exactly like the current specimens and the German shepherd dog, as we now know, did not really appear until after World War II.

Since then, the breed has grown enormously in popularity and is now one of the most popular pedigree breeds in the world as a pet, as well as the favorite dog breed for many fields, such as grazing and especially the police. They are widely used for security purposes due to their strong protective instincts.

I currently have 2 German shepherds and I can attest to the characteristics of these dogs.

I see in them as main features

  • loyalty, reliability, perseverance and courage
  • strength, discipline, attention
  • with a protective instinct character
  • high degree of intelligence
  • Although it is considered a working dog, our children are playful and well socialized, educated with a lot of empathy, patience and loving consistency.

    of these two examples that I present, we have brought several young, so we have seen the process of evolution from the first to adult. I can assure you that raising them is a responsible and beautiful task. It takes a lot of space because many come with each birth, The financial side of breeding can not be forgotten. Among the costs are, for example, the costs of the facilities, the food, the veterinarian.

    your race depends on the quality of the parents and their ancestors.

    The shepherd has always been seen as a working dog, protector, guardian and it is like that. but it can also be a family dog. As a family dog, however, it should also be treated properly, for example, you should exercise regularly and be able to access ample outdoor spaces. If we want our German shepherd to be happy we must make sure that he exercises regularly, nothing better than to take him out for a walk in ample spaces, go out with him or keep him in a farm with enough space to run.

    We mainly raise them in both family and work areas, I think it is the best thing for their upbringing to maintain contact and love with their owners but also to teach them that they have to work, besides they have a lot of energy every day.

    Once a German sheepherder joins his family, he will become his protector when strangers or friends approach. This protection may be appropriate or inappropriate, depending on the situation, and the dog may not always be able to discriminate between those situations

    the name of the dogs are "DON" and "LOBA".

    Thank you for your attention in this post, I just wanted to bring you some information about my experience with this type of race. I personally recommend it a lot.
