I have a German shepherd dog. He always wants to go outside and needs a walk every day, so you can say that they need lots of excersise. If you are thinking of adopting a German shepherd, I would let him or her outside a lot, and I am sure they need alot of excersise. Hope this helps.

It is best to go outside and exercise your German shepherd twice a day for 1-2 hours at a time but if your dog has little energy then i would exercise him/her twice a day for 30 min. but if he has a lot of energy than you should exercise him/her twice a day for 2 hours. But you should NEVER exercise a dog once a day for 4 hours so that you wont have to go twice a day for 1-2 hours because exerciving to much can cause your dog to have a heatstroke which can be fatal.

They are quite high energy dogs so they do not a lot of exercise, at least 30 minutes a day, but an hour or more a day is even better.
