It's no wonder why the German Shepherd dog is one of man's favorite breeds. Developed for their distinct loyalty and work ethic, they fit perfectly in the right home. So what is the "right home" for a German Shepherd? One that provides long walks every day, and can afford to feed a large breed dog with quality dog food.
We'll get more into the specific needs of German Shepherds and their owners later. For now, keep in mind that you will also need to have plenty of time to spend one-on-one with your new dog. GSDs were bred to be with their herd at all times.
There are lot of things to learn before adopting a German Shepherd puppy. This is the place to learn all of them. Find everything from articles on the history of German Shepherds to informative dog training videos.

A little about myself now. My name is Christine Cameron and I'm a retired dog groomer and animal handler. I've been working with pets of all sizes since I was 14 years old. I've worked in veterinary offices, a greyhound dog farm, horse farms, a dog grooming shop and I even owned a small pet shop for a short time.
When my back finally gave out for good I had to quit working completely. I still have my German Shepherd, Sheba, but things are getting hard on both of us (arthritis and all). I now try my best to pass along the secrets to working with animals that I've learned over the years.
I've trained many dogs, both my own and for others. Though it's really a matter of training dog owners on how to give commands and respond to their dogs' behaviors. Once you learn how to communicate with your dog you will both enjoy a happy life together.
I've had my German Shepherd for just over a year now and she sparked me to put together this site. Sheba was a rescue dog that wound up rescuing me!
I was a mess after having to put my Cocker Spaniel to sleep when he was struck by a sudden illness. He became critically ill in two days and had internal bleeding for no apparent reason. We tried everything in those 48 hours, but it became more humane to let him go. I was truly heartbroken. He was almost 12 years old.
Sheba needed a foster home, and the next thing you know, I adopted her. She is a perfect fit for me, and I to her. Head on over to the GSD blog to read updates on Sheba and let me know who is the German Shepherd in your heart!
Here are some pictures of my Sheba "The Wonder Shepherd"!
