Finding a German Shepherd Breeder
- German Shepherd Dog Club of America Puppies
These breeders offer German Shepherd Puppies. They are members of the German Shepherd Dog Club of America. Each of them should be investigated further if you consider purchasing a puppy. - Rescue a German Shepherd
If your not ready for a puppy, but want a German Shepherd, you can always consider adopting or rescueing. - The Monks of New Skete German Shepherds
From the guys that wrote "The Art of Raising a Puppy" also breed puppies. Not sure on the cost of a dog, but I think they are over $700. These German Shepherds come highly recommended.
I thought this was a great resource on German Shepherd questions
Training a German Shepherd
- The only people Maggie likes more than us!
We sent Maggie to get trained by Stover & Opdycke. They were excellent and are experienced German Shepherd trainers. It may be a little far if your not in Washington, but they are great.

You should have more from your actual self about German Shepherds! I'd like to hear from an actual owner. I really want a German Shepherd myself so I want to see how they actually are
Glassvisage, German Shepherds are great pets. Very smart, alert, and people friendly. They do need frequent exercise. The only downside I think is the amount of shedding. They shed a ton. So if your going to keep it in the house a lot, you'll need to check out my Hub on brushing them:)
hmm I see Maggie was reading Livelonger's Crazy Halloween Contact Lens and went for a custom option :-)
The picture of this german shephard is cute and hilarious (the suits got arm hanging down). I needed this laugh. I also like german shephards period...had one as a kid, he was so lovable and was stolen. When my stepfather tried to retrieve him by knocking on the door and confronting the guy that took him the man drew on gun on him. After that we just never had another dog.
The dog is a good sport. They are great family pets. I often hear that people that like German Shepherds had a positivie experience as a kid with them. My Grandama had one, and I was always impressed by how smart and friendly it was.
my pet's name is roxy he is also a german shepherd dog. i like him sososos much that i can't express my feelings for him he is not a dog for uds but my sweet bro and my moma nd dad's son.
I love German Shepherds. Like my Golden Retriever and Labs, though, they do need daily brushing to reduce the constant shedding. They do make wonderful family pets and good guardians for children, as you've seen with the stroller, so yours must be great for the girls. And they need lots of exercise, as do all working breeds. Amazing how many people expect them to be placid housedogs without daily long walks, or even better, runs! I agree with glassvisage, though - Would love to have some of your anecdotes. Thanks for the resources.
The most importan thing after owning a german shepherd is to take him/her for a walkor they will become destructive.socialising is also imporant.
i like german shepherd dogs but i just need a check list about everything i need to know about them
i wnt a german shepherd i think i may get one in 3 weeks my mom dosent like dogs but everyone else in my family does hi mom
Why does coffee send me German Shepher into a panic attack mode? She begins running, climbing the walls and jumping on furniture whenever I make coffee. I rescued her and she is 5 years old. Could this remind her of something in her past? Periodically however she will do this when coffee is not being made but definitely when it is. Thanks anyone for your comments.
Does the coffee maker produce a high pitched sound? My german shepherd will do that when very high pitched noises are present.
