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!

The cute and chronically shedding

The author starts the book by discussing that his first meeting with one of these beautiful creatures was when he met a police dog! He learnt so much about their temperaments and traits, and you can tell by his words that he immediately fell in love. It’s so refreshing to listen to a book written by someone who cares so deeply about the cute and chronically shedding creatures! Big takeaway from this book: Make sure you want a dog that wants to be with you all the time! And when you start playing with them (throwing a ball, etc) they will not want to stop playing LOL. I love German Shepherds and really enjoyed this book. It’s also true what the author says: If you go out walking with your German Shepherd, people will either adore them or be terrified of them, but it’s our job as dog owners to make sure that people know that our beautiful dogs are safe and friendly–which they are! But owners must educate themselves about their unique traits!. Which is why this book is so helpful.

A Must-Have for New German Shepherd Owners

This guide has been a lifesaver since I brought home my German Shepherd puppy. It covers everything from the breed's history to health tips, but the training section is what I found most helpful. The potty and crate training advice made the process so much easier, and the tips for dealing with separation anxiety were spot on. If you're new to owning a GSD, this book provides all the essential information to get started on the right foot!

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.

All you need!

Highly recommend this guide to anyone who owns German shepherd or planning to bring one home. This book is everything you need. Author did an excellent job in detailing from taking care of them to training them.
