From pint-sized puppy to confident canine: how to raise a healthy, happy, and well-behaved German Shepherd

Are you planning to welcome a new dog, but are still unsure about which breed to get?

Have you always admired German Shepherds but are hesitant because of their aggressive image?

Or maybe you’ve been given a German Shepherd puppy, and you have no idea what to do with it?

The German Shepherd is a popular and highly in-demand dog breed...and for good reason.

They’re intelligent, loyal, energetic, playful, and protective of their owners, making them great companions.

They’re also extremely hardworking and versatile, and can be trained to do almost anything - including sports, rescue, therapy, scent work, and guide dog work.

But no matter how amazing this breed is, your dog won’t come to you all well-behaved and obedient.

Before they can start sitting down or rolling over on command, you need to first start with the basics, such as potty training and learning to socialize. And you’ll need to know their unique needs, so you can care for them properly. Fortunately, there’s no need for you to second guess your German Shepherd’s necessities. Everything you’ll need to know - from bringing your puppy home to communicating with them - you can find in this info-packed guide to owning and caring for German Shepherds. While it can be a difficult transition at the start, having your own German Shepherd means you’ll have a loyal and constant companion to share memorable moments with.

Whether you’re looking for a faithful friend, a fierce protector, or a fun playmate, a German Shepherd will be all these for you and your family.

Get ready. You’re in for one of the most rewarding relationships of your life!
