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!

Great for German Shepard puppy owners

What an excellent book for training your German Sheppard puppy! I’ve never had a German sheppard and knew very little about them. After listening to this book I have vast knowledge and understanding of German sheppards and would recommend this to those looking for easy tips and tricks for training them!

Great A-Z primer!

My brother got a German Shepherd puppy without much preparation, and I (the older, wiser brother) immediately got this book to help give him advice. He's going to have to get a copy himself, because WOW this is an exhaustive resource for how to create a good boy. Truly everything you might need. Wow. Great narration too.

Rx for the new GSD owner!

Well written and thoughtfully helpful for the new owner or one who had a GSD in their past and would like good pointers on how to enhance your life experience as well as that of your new companion’s life. I find this author took the time to explain the “what’s, where’s, how’s and why’s of this beautiful dog breed and gave me a better understanding of how a GSD thinks, acts and behaves. This is a GEM of a book!

Good girl! Sit and listen to this!

This is a great listening experience. it made me want to start all over with my yorkie's training.

Although the title is breed-specific, the training routine is fairly applicable for most dogs . The author does get into the GSD mind to let you know what he might be thinking and how he interprets your actions and movements. She also talks about dogs who have been heroes at home and in war and disaster recovery missions.

The narrator has an authoritative and calm presentation. He was a pleasure to hear.

Best for Pet lovers!

Are you a pet lover? A person like me will love this book as I love to keep German Shepherds but I was not aware of tips to care for my pet in the best way. This book has facilitated me with great tips.

It is a good recommendation as it will provide you with techniques and ways to look after your pet in the right way.

For GSD Lovers Everywhere!

I recently listened to the audiobook "Training Guide for New German Shepherd Owners," and I have to say, I was thoroughly impressed. As someone who has always admired German Shepherds, I was looking for a comprehensive guide on how to properly care for and raise a German Shepherd. And this audiobook delivered!

The author does a fantastic job of breaking down the unique characteristics and needs of German Shepherds, making it easy for even a first-time dog owner to understand. The information on potty training and socialization was particularly helpful and provided great tips on how to make the transition with a new puppy as smooth as possible.

The audiobook also highlights the versatility of the breed and its many uses, which was eye-opening and inspiring. I was also impressed by the author's ability to communicate the many rewards of owning a German Shepherd, making it clear that having one will be one of the most fulfilling relationships you'll ever have.

The narrator of the audiobook was excellent and brought the author's words to life. The pacing was perfect and made it easy to follow along, even for someone with a busy schedule.

Overall, I would highly recommend this audiobook to anyone considering bringing a German Shepherd into their home. Whether you're looking for a faithful friend, a fierce protector, or a fun playmate, this audiobook will give you all the information you need to ensure your new pup grows into a happy, healthy, and well-behaved companion. Five stars!

It is greatly-written

German Shepherds are one of my favorite dogs and I have always dreamed of owning a smart, loyal and energetic German Shepherd. Finally last week we adopted a 3 month old German Shepherd and he is really so adorable. Through this book I am working on how to raise a healthy, happy and well behaved German Shepherd. This book contains everything I need to know about puppy training, including house, potty and crate training, leashes, recall and separation anxiety. I highly recommend this book.
