German Shepherd Detailed Introduction

German Shepherd Dog, also known as German Blackback (Bei), is also known as German Wolfhound. This breed is said to be native to Germany. The only thing that can be confirmed is that this dog has been fixed in various parts of Germany in 1880 and used as a shepherd dog. They are agile and rank third in the world dog breed IQ ranking. They are suitable for action-oriented working environments and are often deployed for various tasks. They were then recruited by the German army during the First World War as military dogs. After the German army learned from their strengths and weaknesses, they were basically finalized. Because of their tall size, mighty appearance, and strong working ability, they are active all over the world as military dogs, police dogs, search and rescue dogs, guide dogs, shepherd dogs, ornamental dogs, and domestic pet dogs.

German Shepherds are divided into working and display types. These two types have great differences in character. The display type German Shepherd pays more attention to its appearance, which is usually called Show Dog, which is more common in China! As the name implies, working German Shepherds pay more attention to their working nature. The colors include Tai Chi color, wolf gray, black, etc., which are more common in the European military and police system. In recent years, the Chinese military and police have also put them into use! German Shepherds are constantly developing all over the world, but they always maintain an objective and fair attitude to breeding. In recent years, a new type of big-headed German Shepherd has appeared in some areas of China, commonly known as the "hammer system", which is a hybrid of St. Bernard and German Shepherd. In fact, this behavior is extremely irresponsible and immoral.

The character of German Shepherds is very docile. Tracing the development history of dogs, we can also understand that dogs are very kind from beginning to end, absolutely obedient and loyal. In addition, German Shepherds have very keen senses, and German Shepherds have particularly strong tracking abilities, which is why they are widely used in the military and police circles. It has made a great contribution to the harmony of our society. On the other hand, if German Shepherds receive formal training, they may be involved in drug enforcement, search and rescue, and tracking.

German Shepherds also have confident and bold personality traits. If you know your German Shepherd well enough, you will find that German Shepherds appear to be very indifferent on the surface, and it is not easy to get close to him or establish a deep friendship with him, but in fact, the dog is very approachable and has a relatively stable personality.
