10 Interesting Dog Facts For German Shepherd Lovers

updated

#7 Avoid mass breeding where the dogs are only kept in kennels. Look out for friendly and open-minded parents and a sympathetic breeder. The friendly relationship between him and his dogs should be clearly noticeable.

#8 Many German Shepherds have hip problems. HD-free parents are a must, you should definitely have this documented by the breeder. Also avoid dogs with extremely sloping hindquarters and tails dragging on the ground!

#9 If you are away from home frequently, or for long periods of time, then a German Shepherd is not the right breed for you. When left alone for long periods of time they become nervous and bored and tend to act out, which you may not enjoy – barking, buying and digging are just a few of the effects.
