Their is no exact number, but German shepherds are third most popular dogs in the world, so think about it.
That is not true. There is nothing stating that Jewish people will not own German Shepherds. As a matter of fact, many German Shepherd police dogs are trained in Israel and imported into other countries.
You don't, they do it on their own if they hear something.
They should do so by their own, if not don't worry. Its fine.
No, Hitler didn't create German shepherd dogs, they existed long before Hitler was around, but Hitler did own German shepherds.
There are many kinds of dogs just like there are many kinds of special people.
Yes, German Shepherds are known for forming strong bonds with their human companions. They are loyal, affectionate, and protective, making them excellent companions for individuals and families. With proper socialization and training, German Shepherds can develop a deep emotional connection with their owners.
German shepards are very kind but also very protective. German shepards are said to be the best dogs for having fun but also can be very violent if trained the wrong way.
No. Many were German POWs for example.
Yes, you can own 2 German Shepards, 2 boxers, and 2 Bengal cats if your local city laws allow you to have that many animals. Check with your local city hall for more details.
German shepherds eat around 2-3 times a day. They're big dogs and should be fed regularly. When they're puppies you should feed them 2 times a day. Do not overfeed your German shepherd because it can cause weight problems. Always have them on a special diet. I know everything on German shepherds, but I don't own one but I will. Maybe this summer. 2-3 times daily is probably the best solution to feeding your German shepherd.
Yes, I do believe they are as I have a short hair. I think that long haired German shepherds are harder to brush and clean because of their long hair.I own a Long Hair German Shepherd, and we do not have to brush her once a day. They seem like they would get muddy and matted, but actually, I have a retriever, and she get's much more mats than my shepherd. We take them to the groomers for a bath with soap and brushing once every couple months, and in between we don't have to brush her.
Pulling on a leash is common for any dog that is not properly trained to walk on a leash. With German Shepherds in particular this can be a HUGE problem due to their size once full grown and their protective nature. You can purchase a head collar or a special harness that will prevent your German Shepherd puppy from pulling while training him/her how to properly walk on a leash. I own two German Shepherds. They don't pull but I still use anti-pull harnesses on them whenever I walk them. There are a lot of people that are flat out afraid of German Shepherds. While they have nothing to fear from my dogs, using the harnesses makes them feel a little bit safer when they're out and about.
