Everyone needs a Shep in their life (German Shepherd)![]() Member Name: tigger2503
Advantages: Loyal, intellegent, loving breed of dog Disadvantages: Problems with their back end later in life Ive only own one GSD so far in my life and I can say its been an honor I can't put into words what it is about the breed that I love so much there just seems to be a connection. When my husband wanted to get a GSD to keep our lab company during the day I was a little nervous as they are large dogs and I knew I would be doing all the walking. Unfortuantley I didn't have a clue when we bought him about any health checks and what the main problems within the breed are and we bought him from a back yard breeder. His temprement with us is wonderful he really is the soppiest dog and is very well behaved waiting on his chair to be stroke when you get in from work and giving sloppy kisses on request. Hes also good a guarding the house giving a nice warning bark when needed but not too much to wind up the neighbours. Unfortunatley Zak was bit by another dog when he was small and we received so bad advice from a previous vet so hes not as good with strange dogs as I would like him to be but has improved greatly with training. They are very easy to train and pick thongs up very quickly. The main problems with the breed is the instability of some dogs in the back legs, my lad suffers with this and has always been very wobbly. I hope I always will have a shep in my life but will do better back ground checks on the breeder this time. Summary: Fantastic dog with excellent temprement |
