Okay, a show breed is typically heavier boned than a working breed but at that weight I presume you are talking about a King German Shepherd which was made for those who wanted an even bigger and more teddy bear looking dog.
They are just as loyal but a lot bigger and more imposing looking to an intruder and more sweeter looking to someone who knows him/her.
According to Wikipedia the King Shepherd can get to 150 pounds so I'm pretty confident this breed is what you mean.
They needed to be big for Herding purposes so they bred only the biggest until they had the wanted size.
Would you want a small guard dog?
There so big because of there type of bread German shepards defend themselfes as a bread and will attack other dogs because of it.
it depends how old the mom was and how big the mom is and whether the puppy is a runt or a reagular size puppy and it depends on if the puppy or runt is a girl or a boy
Yes it is a large breed and I have one.
Well i think wolfs eat them because wolfs are big dogs and German shepherd can eat a stray cat so maybe wolf can eat Maine coons.
Well, I would have to know what the or would be. Is it a dog, cat, person?? Anyways German Shepherds are very cute dogs! So I would go with the Shepherd instead of the or..?. Take care and God Bless!
The English Shepherd is a medium size dog ranging from 40 to 60 pounds for females and about 40 to 70 pounds for males. I believe the German Shepherd is also classified a medium size dog so you would have to take an educated guess from here.
Yes, German Shepherds are brilliant dogs and they are very loyal. They will protect you too. iI have a German Shepherd and she is very loyal, loves kids and gets along with other dogs too. I would defiantly recommend a German Shepherd as a pet.Yeah, I personally think that German Shepherds are the best dogs to have with a family. They are loyal,and great with children. If you are going to pick a dog, you should defiantly pick the German Shepherd Dog.However like all dogs, German Shepherds can be very vicious if they aren't trained properly so if you plan to have one, especially around children, make sure it receives proper training so it doesn't bite anybody.
No, the German Shepherd became a breed by having general Shepherd dogs bred together until they had a standard.
no they live with there owners so why would they
Preferably, small dogs but I also have a German shepherd with my pom so you just have to keep a close eye on them if you have a big dog because they tend to be a bit rough.
German Shepherd, they are very smart. That's why the police use them so much
small dogs edit: i grew up with big dogs but i also like small dogs so both.
Unless you want to pay to get the dog professional attack training (which I don't suggest) then there is really no way to make a german shepherd kill a robber. But I do know that they make excellent natural guard dogs. If a german shepherd knows and loves you then they will fight for you with there life if the situation arises, one of the reasons the police use them so much. Although, just by having a german shepherd in your house would be enough to keep robbers away.
It depends on if the German Shepherd is a purebred or not.If so then the German Shepherd is related to the Siberian Husky the Samoyed and the wolf of course.
German Shepherd Dogs are not hyper all the time. If your dog is continually hyper, it is probably underexercised Try taking it for a five mile or more hike every day.
