Getting a purebred German shepherd puppy I want a dog that will protect my family and my house and if I get the dog fixed will it still be the same protective which gender is more loyal and protect?
If you do decide to get a German Shepherd puppy, you need to make sure you have the time for one. A German Shepherd is one of the world's best companions, so it is a great family dog. A female German Shepherd will be more protective of children because of their motherly instincts. A female is less likely to stray than a male. But, when it comes to protection, a female fights more in a "scappy" way. A male German Shepherd will be more protective....as they are normally used as police dogs. (I guess it must be in the hormones) Males will "fight to the death" if something is threatening you or your family. Although, even if you get the males fixed, they are likely to stray if they sense a female in heat. But, whatever gender you choose, you are getting a great dog. And, you should get them fixed to give them a longer life. I have had both females and males in my lifetime and they are both great. I think a female would be best if you have young children. But, it is you choice. I hope you enjoy your new German Shepherd puppy. =)

A female German Shepherd typically experiences a heat cycle approximately every six months, during which she is fertile for about 2 to 3 weeks.

It's important to monitor her behavior and consult a veterinarian for guidance on breeding and health.

When is a female German shepherd ready to mate?

As your dog is still developing at this age, if she becomes pregnant she will have to give her vital nutrients and vitamins to her growing puppies, which would stunt her growth. It may also be damaging to both her physical and mental well-being as she is too young. You should wait until she has had at least three heat cycles before breeding from her.

Males can mate at any time once they reach sexual maturity, usually around six months of age, and can remain fertile throughout their life.

Yes, a 10-year-old female German Shepherd can still get pregnant if she has not been spayed and is in heat.

Additionally, breeding a senior dog is generally not recommended due to potential complications for both the mother and the puppies.
