Things NOBODY tells you about owning a German Shepherd

The German Shepherd is one of the most popular dog breeds in the world.
If you are thinking of adopting a german shepherd, or perhaps you already live with one, don't miss this video that reveals everything you need to know about these wonderful companions.
German Shepherd Dogs are very protective of their loved ones
As herding dogs in the past, German Shepherds would guide, herd, and protect livestock. As pets, these herding instincts motivate these dogs to act as protectors for their owner, family, and children. Because of this, German Shepherds may sometimes act a bit distant or aloof with strangers. They will love you and your family, but they may give all new people the stink eye. Don’t worry though, they are just looking out for you and your family’s safety.
You should be committed to spending time socializing and training your dog to ensure your canine feels comfortable around strangers and other dogs.
German Shepherds will explore everything with their noses
It's true that all dogs have a better sense of smell than humans. But compared to other dog breeds, German shepherds have a far better sense of smell.
When on walks, you may find your curious dog sniffing everything on sight such as trees or bushes.
They are mouthy
German Shepherds tend to use their mouths as an appendage thanks to their herding heritage. This is because these dogs would use their mouths to herd the sheep in the right direction.
This means that German shepherds tend to grab onto anything that fits their mouth and chew on it.
Training your dog not to chew on the furniture or nibble on your hand is essential with this breed.
They provide constant companionship
Having a German shepherd in your home means you will never be alone because your loyal canine will always be by your side.
Their affectionate and dedicated personalities are a bonus of the breed. This means your GSD will follow you everywhere and will want to spend time with you rather than being left alone all day.
German shepherds thrive in human companionship. The more time you spend with them the happier they will be.
They shed a lot
German Shepherds have a double coat which enables them to tolerate both cold and hot weather. But this means these pups shed heavily and frequently.
Aside from shedding throughout the year, German shepherds lose all their undercoat twice a year, in the spring and fall.
They are super active
German Shepherds need daily, strenuous exercise. These dogs are not suitable for laid back owners who prefer laying on the couch all day. They need active owners who can provide them with daily exercise.
If left unexercised, shepherds tend to become bored, anxious, and ill tempered.
They may even find destructive ways to release their pent-up energy, such as chewing, excessive barking, or scratching.
German Shepherds have different coat and color variations
There are different types and color variations in German Shepherds.
The most common colors are black and tan, but they also come in colors such as solid black, black and silver, bi-color, gray, or even white.
German Shepherds also have different coat variations.
The normal coat is short hair, but they also come with a longer coat.
German shepherds are incredibly smart
German Shepherds are among the most intelligent dogs living today. Their unique ability to follow human commands is what makes them smarter than nearly all dogs.
In addition, they have a strong desire to cooperate and work with us, a trait many see as a wish to please their humans. No wonder this breed excels at whatever you train them to do. But remember, because German Shepherds are one of the brightest breeds, it is important to provide them with plenty of mentally stimulating toys, and play brain-challenging games.
German Shepherds have herding traits
German Shepherds were originally bred to guard and herd sheep and cattle. So, along with the herding traits of independent thinking and intelligence, it’s perfectly normal for your German Shepherd to herd human family members.
For example, if someone in the family steps off the sidewalk, the dog will herd the wayward member back onto the sidewalk and safety.
They don’t like being left alone
German Shepherds are social dogs and hate spending time without their human. These canines suffer from separation anxiety if you leave them alone for long periods of time.
They may need to be trained not to bark
German Shepherds are especially bad for apartment owners not just because they are high-energy dogs but also because they tend to bark at strangers and at outside noises. They are guard dogs after all. This can be avoided, of course. There are ways to train any dog not to bark at strangers.
Health problems
Although German Shepherds are generally considered to be healthy dogs, the breed is associated with several health conditions such as hip dysplasia, epilepsy, and bloating.
GSDs have a lifespan of 9-13 years which is average for most dogs.

[@Mooncricketstinks]

As a farmer I love this breed. I can tell him to herd the sheep into their pens and not even have to stop what I'm doing. They're also great at sitting and guarding them in pastures. Great for chicken coop protection as well. Keeps the coyotes, and foxes away. By days end they come in tired, eat, then pass out till next morning. These are perfect farm dogs, next to border collies.

This is a good video and so true. We've owned 5 GSD's over the years, 4 males and one female and still have a male. They are a wonderful dog if you like to train dogs and give them the activity they need. Due to our age, this will be our last. Oh my, I dread the day we're without a GSD.

[@LuckeyWlas]

This touch my heart. I'll adopt a German sheperd tomorrow and I can't wait him and my mom meet. We have Shih-tzu since I was a child, and the last one (Andrea, 14 years old!) will be effectively the last one because my parents live alone far from me and they feel to old to take care again. A secret my mom told me years ago, was she loved German Sheperd, but she's too homely to take one. So when this puppy (I named him Riva - the italian words for "River") come in my life I saw him ad a sign of the destiny. My mom is old, it's true, but deserves more and more years of dog's love ❤

[@jolly_raven_5657]

I’m getting my first German shepherd in November this year, she’s due to be born in 2 weeks time (roughly)! My last dog was a border collie rescue so she’ll be my first dog from a breeder (I was really worried about their common heditary issues so I opted for someone who does full vet clearances and hip and elbow scoring, who breeds straight backed working lines.) This has been a dream for me ever since I was 6 and I’ve been actively planning for my GSD for 2 years now so I’m hella excited lol

[@w4447]

I had a female and want to and am getting another as soon as I can. The best tip I could give you is socialize your dog. Take them everywhere as soon as you get him or her. The vet will tell you to stay away from the dog parks do to Parvo. Bring them in and drop them right in the middle of it and let the other dogs train up your puppy.(they have puppy privileges when young)Two or three days to the park and they will be dragging you there. It was great exercise for my Cindy Lou too.

[@chuckhoyle1211]

GSDs are high-energy terrors until they mellow out as they mature. We have 2.5 year old and a 5 month old GSDs the puppy gets into everything. Get garbage cans with lids that close or they will drag stuff out of the trash to shred. Be patient and give lots of cuddles. I like to lay on the floor and have the dogs lick-attack me. Also, don't be afraid to roughhouse with them. They are big, tough dogs that like a challenge.

[@loobylou6777]

My GSD just turned 3 years old and is still a naughty puppy 🐕 but a little bit of maturity is starting to show. This video is spot on so listen well to what they say. The only problem for us is we got her during the very start of Covid so we didn’t leave the house for about 16 months hence she isn’t socialised with other animals and people and unfortunately suffers from Aggression Anxiety, going to the vet is a nightmare. She is very loveable ❤ to us but just fiercely barks when she sees another living thing. So please socialise your GSD it is very important, but enjoy your fur baby as much as you can. My girl’s name is Poppy.😊❤❤❤

[@bdb3350]

Everything is spot on. I have raised 2 GSD's. My last one passes almost 2 1/2 years ago, he was 13 years old. Most health problems with large breed dogs especially orthopedic and obesity can be avoided by NOT NEUTERING males and waiting until two years old to spay females. When it comes to my last GSD I don't think I will ever be rid of him. No matter how much I clean and vacuum I still find tuffs of his fur. I miss my block headded friend's unconditional loyalty and love.

[@phantomf4747]

At 18 seconds, that looks like my "Gunny". He and his brother "Captain" were trained by my neighbor and myself., My neighbor is a LEO K9 deputy. His Belgian and my 2 play together often. Best "Fur friends". Both will patrol the property, bite only on command and are 4-legged alarm systems. It's nice to know that our 2 "little ones" at 80 pounds each are here to thrive, protect and love as family members. When we do hit the rack and the end of the day, it's very comforting to know that 1 sleeps against the front door and the other against the back door. You can't have better security than that.

This video is ACCURATE! I have a 3 year old long haired GSD and yes she sheds a lot of hair on a daily basis. However, for health, unfortunately, my GSD suffers with allergies which has been pain. My vet gives her monthly shots but I wish she didn't have allergies because the shots are not cheap! Overall, GSD are great dogs but do require a lot of training and effort on our part as owners. My GSD is very affectionate and protective. I didn't realize the herding traits come out on our daily walks.

[@ShJDoc]

I also had a GSD who had severe allergies. If they are food based switching to a raw diet is so beneficial, mine had allergies to pork chicken and beef. He also suffered with yeast infections which meant no veggies or fruits apart from broccoli cauliflower and celery. Amd absolutely nothing grain like. My poor baby I loved him dearly but life was a struggle for him. I done my best RIP Alfie ❤️

[@leroyhidalgo6456]

[@maryrudelich9000]

GSD, Jack was a truly remarkable and affectionate, loving pet. Will love him forever.

[@zeperad3107]

after they chew on something, I don't recommend replacing it with treats, instead tell them no *DO NOT YELL* and take the item carefully away from their mouth, *Don't let it rip, or else they can choke* But they will eventually learn it when you teach them, give them treats after they stop :D hope this helps! Have a great day! (Everything else in the video is correct, good job!)

[@haroldfarquad6886]

I have a half GSD who came from the short-haired line. He has semi-floppy ears and an almost entirely tan coat, but otherwise received all these GSD traits. He's been fiercely protective since the first week I got him, adores my friends and family but will give every stranger an ear full until they prove friendly, always has lots of words to say, HATES being alone, always knows 10 minutes before if I'm about to leave and starts whining and pacing, sheds a ton, and absolutely demands morning cuddles, belly scratches, and daily doses of affection. He's adorable, but it's definitely not the kind of breed you want if you have to leave them alone most of the time.

[@Seashelldub]

Sounds like our GSD! She’s definitely my little shadow and demands plenty of attention and scratches in the mornings and again in the afternoon. Thankfully, I work from home, so she gets plenty of quality time with her human.

[@shineyourlightwithraz]

Growing up in Brazil, my German Shepherd (REX ... rip) was pretty much the highlight of my childhood. Picture this: endless sunny days with the most loyal, goofy sidekick by my side. Whether we were exploring causing chaos, or just chilling in the backyard, every moment was an adventure. The memories? They're as vivid as ever. Honestly, that dog didn't just bring joy into my life; he filled it with unconditional love and laughter that I carry with me to this day. x

[@doreencetrangelo7255]

[@margaretstutts4362]

I had a shepherd mix. She guarded me her whole life. She’d sleep with me or across the threshold of my bedroom. She would give the stink eye to strangers. But she never was aggressive at all. Chewy is an understatement. My mom was scared she’d be knocked down. I taught Darcy to never jump up. For this reason my mom learned to love her. My one pet peeve was her carrying her food bowl to the bedroom to eat. She broke so many bowls. I had to go get plastic. Then she chewed those up. Different bowl, stainless steel this time. Lord she was smart. She was active. She was so bonded to me that I was at our beach house and I was packing. I put her on the front deck. My brother said she’s not letting you leave without you. She’d gone down the stairs and back up the stairs to the back deck so she could see me through the back door glass. She was so bonded but I trained her not to freak out. Separation anxiety is a real thing. She did not have health issues. The was on glucosamine as a preventative. But she didn’t get arthritis until about 13. I had to put her down at 15 due to a possible stroke. It was the hardest decision I’ve ever had to make. Do not get a gsd unless you have the time to exercise, feed, brush and train one. They do have to be socialized. I had toy poodles and they helped train her with me. I had a cat as well. Be patient and socialize the GSD.

My point above being that GSD's are one of the most versatile breads on the planet and are very adaptable. Remember GSD's used in the military and law enforcement are asked to remain calm for hours and sometimes days before they are called into action. GSD are particularly successful in this line of work because they have an off switch, unlike perhaps other working line dogs. My girl very much has a high prey drive but nothing that can't be channelled into regular play time. ​

Our GSD, Jett, was diagnosed with degenerative myelopathy at age 7, which paralyzed him. There is no cure and it's pretty common in larger breeds but we had never heard of it so didn't think to have him checked for it before buying. With physical therapy, he hung on for about 13 months, but we had to have him put down at age 9.

I have a GSP, and he gets into mischief. At 11-monrhs, he has binded with a woman I know. He is extremely loyal to me. He is egotistical and prideful, he is also a follower, where ever I go, he is always following me around. I can't give him a shower or bath. But, if I'm in the shower, he wants to join me. He has tied me up in his chain , and pulled me down and dragged me across the yard, tied up in his chain. He loves cooler weather, it's like a to him. He has a triple coat. He is very protective of me and hates other GSP or GS.

German Shedder

[@barbaraweitz9906]

Ha Ha! Great name...made me laugh. I currently get anywhere from a baseball to larger fur ball off him EVERY day when I use the deshedder on him. He's my fifth German Shedder so I've got no brains, just love for the breed.

Its easy. Don’t leave dogs in the house. Leave them outside.

If I get a German Shepherd, I will try and wear the same top as much as I can and not wash it so they get my scent and can track me if I go missing.

"things someone must have told you about owning a German Shepherd"

[@Cptnbond]

The GSD has an amazing nose, in particular for poop. Thus, be prepared to digging poop out of their mouth.😱

[@Yupppi]

"Only german shepherd owners will understand" proceeds to list features of belgies. Thankfully we all can ignore what US kennels and clubs think.

Unmentioned in the video: German Shepherd's are also susceptible to a disease known as "pannus" which affects the eyes.

German Shepherds > there is no substitute

loves to eat

[@sophieirwin3497]

For an intelligent, standoffish breed, they’re big soppy idiot cuddle monsters with their owners and people the trust. Plus there’s a reason they’re called German shedders! And ball is life
