I bought a pair of $1,000 brand new eye glasses which which I placed on my night stand for less than 5 minutes last night next to my nightstand. Next to my much needed $1,000 brand new eye glasses were 3 cheap disposable reading glasses from Walgreens. My 10 month old German Shepherd puppy takes my $1,000 eyeglasses instead of the other cheap disposable reading glasses to his Kennel and destroys him. My German Shepherd puppy has a serious habit of taking my shit to his Kennel and collecting them. All my shoes 👞 are gone and when I retrieve them, 3 minutes later they are gone. A major problem. I am beginning to think my dog 🐕 is stealing my shit on purpose.

Here’s five photos of Chase my 10-month German Shepherd puppy 🐶 💖 💓 💕 😍 💗 Got him at 7 months old. Very skinny. Weighed 55 pounds and gained 10 pounds after 3 weeks. Don’t know how much he weighs yet. Still under treatment for intestinal worms.

Here is a video clip of Chase enjoying playing with Stella in the snow. This is the German Shepherd puppy’s first major snow storm since he was born in January 25th, 2023. I adopted Chase four month ago and he had a rough time since he became 💔 a member of our family because he couldn’t play with our other dogs because he had two different types of worms, one which was an intestinal damaging worm that could have taken up to a year to heal. With a negative worm test last week, he has a lot of catching up to do being a playful puppy. Will post more videos

Here is a list of the easiiest dogs to train:
The ease of training a dog depends on various factors, including individual temperament, intelligence, and the owner’s training skills. However, some dog breeds are generally known for their trainability and eagerness to please. Here are a few breeds that are often considered easier to train:
Border Collie: Known for their intelligence and agility, Border Collies excel in obedience training and are quick learners.
Poodle: Poodles are highly trainable and come in three sizes: standard, miniature, and toy. They are known for their intelligence.
German Shepherd: German Shepherds are often used as police and service dogs due to their intelligence, loyalty, and trainability.
Golden Retriever: Friendly and eager to please, Golden Retrievers are known for their intelligence and make great family pets.
Labrador Retriever: Labs are known for their friendly nature and high intelligence, making them relatively easy to train.
Papillon: Despite their small size, Papillons are intelligent and excel in obedience training.
Shetland Sheepdog: Shelties are known for their intelligence and eagerness to learn, making them relatively easy to train.
Doberman Pinscher: Dobermans are known for their loyalty and intelligence, making them trainable for various tasks.
It’s important to note that individual dogs may vary, even within a specific breed. Additionally, training success depends on consistency, positive reinforcement, and the time and effort invested by the owner. Regardless of the breed, early socialization and positive training methods can contribute significantly to a dog’s overall behavior and obedience.

@marga ench Bulldogs are known for having a high likelihood of requiring a Caesarean section (C-section) for the delivery of their puppies. This is due to their unique physical characteristics, including their brachycephalic (short-nosed) skulls and small pelvises, which can make natural birthing difficult or dangerous for both the mother and puppies.
The combination of a large head in the puppies and a narrow birth canal in the mother often leads to complications during labor, such as dystocia (difficulty in giving birth), which can result in the need for an emergency C-section. In fact, a significant percentage of French Bulldog litters are delivered via C-section to ensure the safety of both the mother and her puppies.
It’s essential for French Bulldog owners and breeders to be aware of this and consult with a veterinarian experienced in brachycephalic breeds to plan for a safe and successful pregnancy and delivery. Regular veterinary check-ups, proper prenatal care, and close monitoring during labor are crucial to minimize risks and ensure the health of the mother and her puppies.

German Shepherds with long coats are a variety of the breed that has a longer, silkier coat compared to the standard short-haired German Shepherds. These long coats can be the result of a genetic variation in the breed, and they are not as common as the short-coated German Shepherds. The long coat variation is still recognized by kennel clubs and breed standards.
When it comes to German bloodlines, there are several well-known bloodlines and breeding programs in Germany that have produced high-quality German Shepherds. These bloodlines often prioritize specific traits, such as temperament, working ability, and conformation to the breed standard. Some of the famous German bloodlines known for producing excellent German Shepherds include:
-
West German Working Lines (WGL): These lines are known for their strong work ethic, intelligence, and versatility. They are often used in various working roles, including police work, search and rescue, and Schutzhund.
-
East German DDR Lines: Dogs from the former East Germany (DDR) were bred for their endurance and courage. They have a different appearance and temperament compared to West German Shepherds and were originally used for border patrol and military work.
-
Czech Working Lines: These German Shepherds are highly regarded for their work in protection sports like IPO (formerly known as Schutzhund). They are known for their intense drive and athleticism.
-
Show Lines: Some German Shepherds come from show lines, which prioritize conforming to the breed standard in terms of appearance. These dogs may not have the same working ability as those from working lines but are still bred for good temperament.
-
American Lines: American breeders have developed their own lines, often mixing German and American dogs. Some of these lines prioritize specific traits for different purposes, such as show, working, or family pets.
When you’re looking for a German Shepherd from specific bloodlines or with a long coat, it’s essential to do thorough research and find a reputable breeder. Reputable breeders will have a strong understanding of their dog’s lineage, health, and temperament, and they will be transparent about the bloodlines they work with.
Always prioritize the health and well-being of the dog over aesthetics or specific bloodlines, and consider adopting from a rescue organization or shelter, as there are often many wonderful German Shepherds in need of loving homes regardless of their bloodlines or coat type.

Bruno, MissyMu, and Gunner going to feed fish in pond. Feeding fish time. The pond did not have any fish after the big freeze in 2019 after the pond did not thaw until late May. All the fish we had died. I bought about 500 feeder Gold fish and the blue Gills reproduced from the birds dropping Blue Gill eggs. The blue Gills multipled thousands of them. Look at when we feed fish flakes. The pond looks like its hot water boiling. You can not see too many feeder goldfish but the ones you do have tripled in size. The little baby blue Gills know when it’s feeding time. Fish are smart creatures. When the pond was stocked we had a a large big mouth bass named Gilligan. Gilligan let us pet him and hand feed him. The coolest fish 🐟 who knew feeding time. Was like a dog. Liked to be hand fed. Ate hot dogs, bread, by hand. Food Gilligan didn’t like, he spit out. Gilligan died during the artic freeze when the pond did not melt until May that one year. We have lots of wildlife in this half acre pond. Bull frogs, ducks, cranes, and snapper turtles. Those snappers can be dangerous. I used to go swimming 🏊♀️ in the pond until I stepped on a snapper turtles 🐢. Then I stopped. Always careful dogs don’t get too close to pond due to snapper turtles. Sometimes I invite hillbillies down the street to catch snapper turtles for Thanksgiving and the love it. The hillbillies love snappers. Its a delicacy for them. I watched Bizzare Foods with that bald heavy set guy that eats everything from cockaroches to squirrels and saw him skin a snapper turtles 🐢 and eat it like a steak. Some people eat racoons, skunks, deers,wild turkeys, goats, cranes, parrots, and pigeons too. Not for me. No zoo animals. Cannot eat live animals I see. Only packaged frozen foods from the grocery stores only.

Gunner is a very smart dog. He’s been humanlike since I got him. When he was a baby, he gets off the bed and goes to the hardwood floor and lays there spread eagle since it is cooler there. Now, he squeezes next to my side of the bed to get face first in my fan I have next to my pillow. Here’s a picture and a small video clip

There are so many reasons to love our pets including their unconditional love and loyalty. In my home I have always valued the bond my pups have had with my children. My babies are their babies, too.

I have always loved to play with dogs, but never had one because of the constant travel. I just do not think it is fair to constantly leave a dog at a kennel. Although a puppy can be challenging in the beginning, a baby seems to be more of a handful.
What do you think?

It is fact checked that 100% of the dogs are Democrats. Here is a Pulitzur Winning Song about how canines are all Democrats and expect free things in life and do not work for things they need or want. So if you love dogs, you love Democrats:

Joe Biden, the President of the United States, had two German Shepherds named Champ and Major. Champ is the older of the two dogs and was with the Biden family before Joe Biden became President. Major is a rescue dog and was adopted by the Bidens in 2018. Please note that there may have been changes or developments since then, so I recommend checking the latest information for updates on the Biden family’s pets.

I have heard many conflicting stories about Illinois banning pets stores from selling puppies. If true, is this law just for Illinois or are there othere states? Or is it state by state? Is there any truth to this or is it another conspiracy story from FAKE NEWS. Thank you in advance.

German Shepherd Puppies are very intelligent dogs. German Shepherd Puppies are loyal, can think, loyal to their masters, get along with other dogs and cats, and are natural guard dogs. German Shepherd dogs do not have to be trained as guard dogs. They are natural guard dogs and will attack anyone who they see is threatening their masters or family member. There are so many beautiful stories about these great loyal canines. I had many German Shepherd dogs throughout my life and every German Shepherd dog I had was very special. I have created this thread for German Shepherd owners and lovers who can share their thoughts on training German Shepherd Puppies and share their tricks and tips with us.

German Shepherd Puppies are the all around best dog for you and your family. My first German Shepherd puppy was a female pure bred German Shepherd puppy named Jeannie when my father purchased it for me after my first semester of my freshman year in high school. Amazing best friend who was always there for me and became my buddy, best friend, and was always there for me. She didn’t need to get trained. Learned everything herself and communicated beyond belief
