Breed Information: German Shepherd

RE: Breed Information: German Shepherd By Owners of the Alsation in that photo (Guest Post) Where did you get this photo of our dog in our back yard? His name was Otto and that little red barn has a piece of picket fence attached with yellow garden tools attached as a bit of back yard art. We have a lot of photos of that back yard and of Otto. I will say this, he has now passed on but he was the greatest dog we have ever known. Not only the best we have owned (I have owned a number of German Shepherds including Otto's parents) but the best Dog we have ever encountered. By the way, his parents were imported from Germany where they still breed them large and have very little occurrence of hip dysplasia. Otto was very big, tall, strong and intelligent! We appreciate and share your admiration and love for the German Shepherd breed. We are serious about the photo though (it IS our Dog "Otto" in our back yard). Please inform how you got the photo of him and we will consider allowing you to keep it on your website. Editor's Note: Hello Owners, We had a contract writer provide breed information and photos. She got some photos from organizations and dog clubs by emailing for permission and some from stock photography websites like istockphoto.com If the photo of Otto was not obtained properly we will gladly replace it with a different German Shepherd, or if you would prefer, we could add a caption with his name. So sorry your loss and sorry if Otto's pictures has been posted on our website in error! He's a beautiful dog.

The first time I put my eyes on the German shepherd dog I nearly could not believe how beautiful and how big they are! They're more beautiful then any other dog breed I ever saw and they need hours and hours of exercise. They're very very playful and energetic they can run and jog for miles and miles they can hike for hours and hours they are absolutely perfect for agility because of there athletic slim and lean structure and especially for being a show dog they can take the first place trophies in one fatal swoop because the judges would think they were looking at a chest full of jewels so get a German shepherd there the most beautiful, the most athletic, the most intelligent out of all the dog breeds in the world. They're great at every sport! And they take all the first place trophies. They're cute they're the best most protective companion you can ever have as a best friend but take him for hikes and jogs cause this dog needs LOTS and LOTS of exercise have these beautiful dogs cause they're the absolute best dog created by God.

In the past 20 years I have owned 10 of these magnifcent dogs having also bred 2 litters. My first, Spy, was a handsome light red-gold with black saddle and muzzle. He was very territorial around me but more lenient around the kids if I wasn't there. Kingston, very dark black with mahogany tans was my last, and from my 2nd litter, born in 1991. He died last year of bloat, just a few months short of his 14th birthday. I have a German Shepherd tattooed on my shoulder, in their honor. I still have another dog, a small mixed breed named Chubacha as he is a true "wookie". He came to stay when I didn't need or want another dog. His persistance paid off as he just passed 4 years with me and is doing fine. Still dreaming of the day I'll have another German Shepherd. Posted on 05/22/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse
