I just finished watching a programme about German Shepherds used by the R.A.F., and one of the dogs on the obstacle course could reach speeds of up to 30 miles per hour!!
When they sprint they can go about 20-27 km/h The average human sprints around 10 -16 km.
German shepherds are also called Alsatians.
There is no information on the actual cost of the Gosselin's German Shepherds. Those dogs were not German Shepherds but a mix so not much.
German Shepherds tend to need lots of space to run around, though they are not as active as Labs. In order to keep them healthy, they should get a daily walk. If you don't have an active lifestyle, a German Shepherd wouldn't be the best pet for you.

Yes, German Shepherds can excel at Flyball due to their intelligence, agility, and strong drive to work. Their natural athleticism and eagerness to learn make them well-suited for the fast-paced and competitive nature of the sport. With proper training and socialization, many German Shepherds thrive in Flyball, enjoying both the physical activity and the opportunity to bond with their handlers.
