Here’s a cute clip of a German Shepherd dog playing with a cat.

One of the most frequently asked questions about German Shepherd dogs is “are German Shepherd dogs good with children and other pets such as large dogs, toy breeds, cats, and birds. I can attest to mine and my first German Shepherd I had Jeannie when I was in high school. From my experience, there is no other dog than a German Shepherd dog that is better with other animals. I will address the if German Shepherd dogs are good with kids to my friend @Cpensacola Christy Hembree and my friend and wholesale account executive @@@TriciaJ Tricia James of Champion Mortgage. and my friend and client @peter Arcuri. I have 11 dogs and Chase, my German shepherd. Plus 3 cats and one African Grey parrot. Chase gets along with everyone. The dogs I have are
1. Female 2 year old Pit Bull adopted
2. EIGHT year old female Standard Poodle rescue
3. FIVE year old Shitz Szu and pomeranian mix
4. Eleven year old toy Poodle
5. FIVE year old teacup yorkshire terrier.
6. & 7. Two Boston Terrier Terrier.
8. FIVE year old teacup toy Poodle
9. FIVE year old toy Poodle.
10. Six year old teacup chihuahua rescue.
11. Two year old French Bull Dog adopted
#12:Chase my MAN. Long Hair GERMAN SHEPHERD dog.
Three one year old cats.
Chase gets along with everyone including the cats. However, Chase looks like a mean German Shepherd guard dog but acts like a teacup lap dog and cat. That’s because you are who you hang with. I may need to get him a brother or sister German Shepherd dog so he can act his age.

What are differences between the Belgium Malanois compared to the German Shepherd? They look similar. Most people cannot tell the difference. Why are these two dogs 🐕 look similar but have totally two different names. How are their temperament? Which breed is better? Which breed is smarter?Which breed costs more?

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.

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.

We decided to get a Doberman Pincher, we already have a twelve year old Labrador . Years ago we had a Husky and thought he needed a younger brother, so we adopted the Lab. They got along perfectly, so perfectly in fact the Lab mimicked the Husky. The Husky had a habit of removing a couple of pieces of dog food from the bowl, walk three feet and spill the food. Eating slowly while savoring every tid bit. The plan was to pass these habits and others on to the Doberman. Boy was that wishful thinking.
The five month old puppy insists on playing with the old lab, who has no interest at all! The plan was to introduce the puppy to the old man in the old man’s house. We recently purchased a new house and wanted the puppy to get used to the old man’s home. Maybe thinking the puppy wouldn’t be as dominant. That didn’t work. The old Lab can’t even crap in peace, the Dobie has to be up his ass, quite literally! What did work was the puppy had his on mind, we knew what we getting into, a stubborn breed of dog, but a five month old, forty five pound puppy had other ideas. He bites everything, not serious a nibble here a nibble there. He bites shoes, even when you are wearing them.
The fact about Dobermans is that they follow everyone in the family and cling to one person, i am the one he picked, lucky me. He is able to sleep by my side of the bed which is sweet, until you need a bathroom run, he must lead the way into the bathroom. While waiting for me nothing is sacred, he must inspect everything dozen of times. He sleeps seventeen hours a day, the other seven can be hell. He pretends he doesn’t know his name, but he will automatically sit for a treat. The pet store sells this spray to deter dogs from biting, he loves it!
There is no book, “Doberman’s for Dummies,” but there is a training book, “101 for Dobermans.” We hope the book will give us some insight, or at least train us.
I better sign off now, I hear him stirring and must baby proof the house once agin. Oh, well we wanted a Doberman.

My 12 year old lab is getting a younger brother, a Doberman puppy. I have always believed in having two dogs for company, they understand each other. My old guy Amici will teach the new puppy Bullet all the habits of each family member.
Hi! My name is Amici! I’m a dog. I’m a Labrador Retriever, although I detest retrieving. I was born in New Orleans, a tough town, and then shipped off to Florida. I’m really a black mutt with a curved funny tail; I was also the runt of the litter, and no one wanted me. I also have a fleshy tumor on my neck. There were many strikes against me. First, I’m black; the second, I’m the runt, I don’t lick or kiss, but I’m friendly like my name. My parents found and adopted me just before I got the needle. I was so scared I stayed in the back of my cage shivering, just waiting for love. My future parents didn’t notice me in the back of the cage, but Andy their son, found me just when all hope was lost! Andy loves all animals. Boy, am I lucky.
They brought me to their house to meet another dog, Budaj. He was a beautiful boy dog, just like me! He was white and a pedigree, and he loved me. He taught me quickly about mom, dad, and Andy. Budaj did not like men! Everyone was afraid of dad, so I learned from Budaj to dislike men. I was taught mom was the only one for us. Although I learned that dad and Andy were great guys, Budaj lived for mom. Dad has a big booming voice that shakes the house because he sings. Mom can curse like a drunken sailor during hockey games, and all is fine; dad just whispers, “drat or darn,” and me and Buds, we run in fear. I’m not sure why, dad has never yelled at me or hit me. He taught me “please,” “thank you,” excuse me,” and I responded. Budaj just doesn’t like him; he hates Andy even more. I don’t know why. Budaj says to never, ever go down the hall to Andy’s room; it’s evil. I’m beginning to believe Budes has issues.
Andy is soft-spoken and a lover of all animals. I’ve seen him capture water bugs and release them outside, and dad, well, you can only imagine what he does; it’s not pleasant.
I’m am very lucky to have a big yard with a pool. I never swim; I hate the water. That’s right, a lab won’t retrieve or swim, and I really hate car rides, all that wind blowing. I enjoy chasing squirrels around the yard. We have bunny rabbits, but dad says we don’t chase them, so I don’t. I’m a good boy. I have many pet names I’m called, and I always answer; you never know, there might be a meatball waiting for me. They call me Amici, Mici, Coco, Peco, Sweebums, Meatball; I actually have seasonal names, Pumpkin, etc.
I’m being raised as Italian, Polish, and Ukraine; boy, they can cook! Meatballs are my favorite. When dad begins to make meatballs, I can hear the wrapping coming off the meat, and I am there to help dad any way I can! Pierogis, Kielbasa, Stuffed Shells, Chicken, and Bacon are my favorites. I have so much love from my family, and the best part is that they are medically trained, not dad though; he just cooks. My Aunt Janelle is a veterinarian! Dr. Aunt Janelle says my tumor is no big deal. Love, food, and healthcare, what more could you want! I have three beds to sleep in, and I sleep in all of them, on the rugs and on the tiles when it’s hot outside.
I cried so much the night that Budaj died. He was so young and my best buddy. It took some time to get over him, I remember everything he taught me, but I love dad and Andy. Since Budaj passed, I have been barking. Budaj didn’t bark much; he woofed when Andy was near. We sold the big house with the big yard, and we are looking for a new home. I bark at everyone walking by in our present home, especially UPS; I hate those brown uniforms. My yard is small, but I go on many walks. I’m loved and well cared for. However, when dad corrects me, I feel sad, but no problem. If I don’t like what he said, I walk into another room and rest, there’s always a bed handy.
My day is full. I mostly sleep and pretend I’m guarding something. I watch western movies with dad. He exercises as he watches television, but I’m just waiting for my next meal. Wherever I’m resting, I keep a keen ear to the ground if someone steals the refrigerator or tries to sneak snacks.
My parents were told I was three months old when I was adopted. They lied so they did not have to give me a worm test. They named me Noel to pretend I was born during the Christmas season. Well, I had worms, and I was seven months old. Poor dad had to keep Budaj’s crap and mine separated for two months until I was better. Boy, if that’s not real love. I’ll be nine years old sometime in July; we aren’t sure because they lied at the kennel; no one wanted me. No one wanted a black runt of a dog with a crooked tail and worms. I give unconditional love; I’m a dog; we all do! My mom and dad, and Andy choose me unconditionally to love me. Now I know what love really is about. I hope all pets could be adopted like I was, unconditionally.
I celebrate my birthday July 4th, and boy, oh boy, so many people celebrate my birthday with firecrackers, which annoy me. It’s good to be an All-American Dog!

Known for their intelligence, loyalty, and versatility, German Shepherds are excellent family pets and working dogs. Here are a few things to keep in mind if you’re considering adopting or buying German Shepherd pups:
-
Temperament: German Shepherds are naturally protective and can be wary of strangers. Early socialization is crucial to ensure they grow up to be well-adjusted and friendly.
-
Training: They are highly trainable due to their intelligence and eagerness to learn. Obedience training and positive reinforcement are important for raising a disciplined dog.
-
Exercise Needs: Being an active breed, they require regular exercise to keep them physically and mentally stimulated. Daily walks, playtime, and engaging activities like agility training are recommended.
-
Diet and Nutrition: Feeding them high-quality dog food appropriate for their age and size will help ensure they grow up strong and healthy. Consult a vet to tailor their diet.
-
Grooming: They shed year-round, so regular brushing will help keep their coat clean and reduce shedding. Bathing can be done occasionally.
-
Health: Like any breed, German Shepherds are prone to specific health conditions like hip dysplasia, so regular vet check-ups and health screenings are important.
-
Socialization: Early exposure to various people, environments, and other animals will help them become well-rounded adults.
If you’re seeking a German Shepherd pup, consider reputable breeders or adoption organizations. Make sure the puppy is healthy and the breeding environment is ethical and responsible.

Many German Shepherd owners want to train their German Shepherd puppy trained to walk off leash. However it is natural for your German Shepherd Puppy to be by you off leash but if your German Shepherd puppy sees a car or squirrel and takes off it can be trouble.
