In reply to Eden.

Eden,

Sounds like Victoria resents how much she paid for her dog; wants dog to love her and be a little protective — not destructive, consider her as “master” and will want to stay at home and not run away. Oh, maybe sync up with the spouse. Sounds like nice family. Sorry to hear of Victoria’s loss.

Just noticed how old this thread is. Well, offering this up in case it might still be helpful.

FOR GERMAN SHEPHERD RESCUES IN LOS ANGELES, you forgot about WESTSIDE GERMAN SHEPHERD RESCUE. They are truly devoted to rescuing the breeds include paying for surgeries on behalf of new owners. Which I Thought was generous. I adopted 2 of their dogs, which were very healthy considering their past! The 2 dogs only needed training!

Please list Westside LA rescue on your list!!!

We have a problem!!!!!! We bought an expensive, purebred German Shepard female 1 1/2
yrs ago. We called her Deja Vu in memory of my Nyah who died a horrible death of internal
cancer. I mourned for over 2 yrs & finally my husband couldn’t take it anymore & wanted me
to get another German Shepard guard dog (I’m alone a lot since my husband is a trucker).
The lady we purchased Deja from is a well known breeder-mostly of white GSD’s. We only
had 2 to choose from in the traditional type since the litter was 6 white & 2 reg. pups, 1 male&1 female. We like females so that’s the one we bought. VERY EXPENSIVE!!! I would have been better off getting one at the pound, but my husband didn’t want to pay $130.00-but he’ll spend over $1000.00 to get this one-GO FIGURE? Anyway it’s been a disaster!! She was extremely distructive & never shows signs of protectiveness or who she excepted as her master, which was suppose to be me. She listens to no one & if left off of the leash takes off-we’re on 10 acres, but she eventually comes home. I was going to breed her but I don’t think that’s a good idea since I found out recently that she is 1 out of 3 from different litters that have these same tendencies, we were told it is a receive gene from the white purebred male from Oregon. My husband thinks we should change her
name & maybe that would help. We went through a similar situation with a male Arabian horse named Rascal now Fabian & it worked.
Any suggestions out there would be helpful.
Thank you: Victoria

In reply to Eliasu. Hi Eliasu, If you cross two different breeds of dog together then the puppies will by definition by mixed breed. Pure bred puppies have two parents of the same breed. I hope this helps.

Yes, the characteristic of the German Shepherd breed of being aloof with strangers further enhances their ability and appropriateness as a guard, police or military dog. The German Shepherd breed needs a lot of stimulation and training is very important from a young age, as you say. An absolutely fantastic breed of dog, but are better suited to people with dog experience of someone who is able and willing to give the dog the time, attention and care that they need in order to raise them properly, in which case, they can be one of the best dog breeds you could ever own.

Really great article, I like your site also
