The German Shepherd continues to stay upon the "Most Wanted List" because of the breed's regal intelligence. Blessed with the ability to serve humans in many different ways, this breed works in the field with both the military and police, serves on search-and-rescue missions and enjoys recognition as an excellent service dog for the impaired. A German Shepherd was bred to herd and protect. This breed is very loyal and would gladly stand in harms way to protect someone he or she loves.

German Shepherds generally come in sable, black and black and tan. They stand between 22-26 inches and their weight ranges between 60-95 pounds.

  1. You should only purchase German Shepherds from reputable breeders. Poor breeding can lead temperament and health problems. Look for a breeder that is a German Shepherd Dog League member and OFA certified.

  2. You should take your German Shepherd to your veterinarian, who will vaccinate your dog, worm her and talk with you about any problems to which this breed may be susceptible, such as skin irritation and dryness, HD and elbow dysplasia, diabetes and OCD (a degenerative bone disease).

  3. German Shepherds can make good indoor dogs. Their keen intelligence makes them fairly easy to house train. German Shepherds may not work well inside a home that has small children; these dogs naturally get along with all children, but young children can sometimes become rowdy and loud, which could upset the dog. While the German Shepherd is not a demanding dog, they do adore their human family and ache for human interaction.

    Though they serve well as indoor dogs, German Shepherds do require a good amount of exercise and activity to be happy. Plan physical activities that stimulate the dog's mind as well, since this breed is so intelligent.
