Comments on: German Shepherd Training And Activities – Keeping Clever Dogs Entertained https://thehappypuppysite.com/german-shepherd-training/ How to find a puppy and raise a happy, healthy dog Tue, 16 May 2023 09:59:47 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.3.5 By: Willow Wilcox https://thehappypuppysite.com/german-shepherd-training/#comment-359445 Mon, 24 Jan 2022 01:08:56 +0000 https://thehappypuppysite.com/?p=9096#comment-359445 Great article. All my previous GS I trained by hand commands, But, now I’ve taken on a Blind one approx 2-3yrs, with apparently no training and could use any tips you can give. I’m currently using touch with voice commands for basics, and it’s going slowly. Although my previous one did go blind (lost him at 15yrs) I had already trained him so verbal wasn’t an issue.
I’m open to any suggestions to quickly get this one trained at least the basics, as I feel it’s irresponsible to have had an untrained GS even if he is blind.
Thanks

Mine are protective of me but also of their gated yard. They basically are my children, they love me as much as I love them.

totally agree with you on the traits of a German Shepherd…… My love for this breed is totally coz they behave like your children with tremendous affection and love and also want to do their duties to the fullest ! that of protection

However, she is immensely attached to my husband and he works from home outdoors mostly so she has plenty of room to roam and play. He takes her on many short walks around our land so I know she receives plenty of stimulation. We have other dogs and for the most part they all have their own quirks and personalities but coexist with each other. She is protective of our whole family and it is funny if I take a walk with a friend or one of the kids you can see the debate in her eyes when she is trying to decide if she should go with us or stay with her daddy. She usually goes with us but I can tell she wants to be with her daddy! Its just adorable how she lets her duties overshadow her preferences…. well what she feels are her duties lol…I see how these dogs could be aggressive but she is just so docile most of the time. Her best friend is a little chiweenie named “Lil man” he was so small when we got him she would play with him and stick his entire head in her mouth! I would needlessly feel immediate terror but it was unwarranted cause she is just a big sweet 85 pound sweetheart! We even have a pet duck that she pays no mind to! I highly recommend this breed of dog but they are really not good for a sedentary household. Mine does not like to be left alone for hours at a time either. a busy household with people in and out all day where someone is always home is good so they are not left unattended or kenneled for several hours at a time.
