The German Shepherd have 3 signs in the face to make sure hes pure what are they?

I can honestly say that I have only heard of one way to tell if a German Shepherd is purebred. This feature has helped me in the long-run because I have been with a lot of Gernan Shepherds. You can always tell the German Shepherd is purebred if they have a bump on their snout. Both of my German Shepherds have that. Now I also have a German Shepherd/Belgian Tuevern mix. On her, she has no bump whatsoever. But, I know she would not have a bump because of her mutt-mix. But if I did not know her bloodlines, I would have figured that she is not purebred.

I hope this was helpful.

P.S. I know this is a very long answer, but I choose to go into detail so that if you need to pass on the information, you can, and be able to show why and how you know.

What to give puppies for fevers?

If your puppy is running a fever do NOT give them any human medication. The animal needs to be seen by a vet ASAP! Very few human medications are safe for dogs. And if they are safe it is in a much smaller dosage than what we have. A fever is an indication of an infection and in a puppy any illness can turn critical very quickly! Please have your animal seen! Sorry I can't give you a quick fix for the problem, but I work critical care at a vets office and I promise you that it is important to determine WHAT is causing the fever than just treat it!

When should I expect an Australian Shepherd female to come into her first estrous cycle and should she be bred at the time of that first heat?

The first step in deciding when to breed a dog is to determine that the puppies will be wanted and will have good homes. A commitment to find good homes for all the new lives you will be creating must be made before even considering breeding any dogs.

Females are able to conceive ("go into heat") only approximately every six to eight months. They usually have their first estrous ("season") at around six months, but some don't for as long as 14 months. As a rule of thumb, if she has not had an estrous cycle by the time she is 14 months old, you should have her examined by a veterinarian.

Most responsible breeders do not breed the bitch in the first estrous cycle, although it is possible for them to become pregnant during that first season. Until a dog is around two, many genetic problems do not manifest, like hip dysplasia, for example. You would need to have the proper testing done on the dogs to be mated to assure that you are not going to end up with a litter of puppies with potentially serious genetic disorders or conditions.

The decision to breed should be made with great care and only after you have learned much more about breeding, whelping, and caring for pregnant bitches and newborn puppies.
