How many months does it take for a German Shepherd to understand human speech?

German Shepherds are a breed of dog with a very high IQ. They are born with good learning abilities and a willingness to obey instructions. Under normal circumstances, German shepherd dogs can communicate with humans through senses such as sound, vision, and smell after birth, and gradually understand the meaning of human language.

Under normal circumstances, German shepherds can begin to understand basic commands such as "sit down", "down" and other basic commands around 3-4 months old, and can respond accordingly. When the German Shepherd reaches 6-7 months, it can understand human language more deeply and be able to execute more complex instructions, such as "find the ball", "bathroom", etc. As the training continues to deepen and continue, the number of passwords and reaction speed that the German Shepherd Dog can understand will continue to increase.

It should be noted that although German Shepherds are intelligent dogs, each dog's learning speed and understanding are different, so training and education need to be patiently carried out according to the individual differences of the dog. During the training process, use positive reinforcement methods to motivate the German Shepherd dog to learn and execute instructions. At the same time, pay attention to maintaining good communication and trust with the dog, so as to cultivate a loyal and obedient German Shepherd dog.
