- Thread starter supermanlives
- Start date
3 napkins, 2 extension cords, pair shoes, dog bed and only 5 minutes with the chew toy.i am gonna be busy. think i lost 2 lbs already ha ha
no pics come on you tease us with a pup and no pics
It's true!
<<< that's me begging for pix!Ive always wanted a shepherd, but have been afraid cause I dont want it to attack visitors.
I was bit by a GS when I was a kid, was always a friendly dog til one day I went to pet it as I usually did and it just snapped on my hand.
any GS owners here that have had success training them to be friendlier? also, would male or female be a better choice?

ok one pic . i have already given up on cage training. round one dog . the poor girl howled for 45 minutes. i tried sitting in another room , on the porch and out back. my heart melted and i gave in . my last dog wouldnt even go into his cage. so again i give up on cages
not a great pic as she appears slightly darker. first and last pic due to security concerns. she wont see the street for months till all her shots done as my last dog got parvo as a pup and cost me big $$$$$$

real good looker
Oh my gosh, she is absolutely darling!!!!! I'm in love!!!!! :yay:
Give that girl a treat and pet for me!
I love it! I'm anti-crate too, I know how trainers rec. them, but I couldn't do it either........Who knew: Supermanlives is a big softy! 
MMJcali: I am of the opinion that females make for better behaved pups....but, I am also a known sexist.
All of the GS's I have known, have been total dolls. GS's are highly regarded as one of the most trainable breeds. Generally speaking, if you get the pup from a *reputable breeder*, train it early, and are consistent w/ disapline...if you want a docile, love bug; that's what you will end up with...And I think that goes for nearly all pups/breeds.
*TiP*: And do get a Dyson 'pet' vacuum!! You'll need it!
Man, buying a Dyson is like joining a freaking cult, lol.

i want another dog that loves me and tells everyone else to fuck off. LOL i believe you can have both security and semi friendly as my last dog proved . he was safe even with babies but attacked a burglar.this dog wont be meeting too many people.i got to do something to prevent hairy buds. dyson is expensive. my last dog i used a horse grooming tool on.. it used to look like it was snowing when the wind blew the right way and he was shedding his underfur. it looks like a saw blade with 4 rings. better than brush. still got it and his choke collar. puppy just destroyed 2 more potted plants . thank god its bedtime
Oh Man I got Tears. Just You don't worry. She will read your sorry ass like a book. Want somebodies ass chewed? She will b swallowin. Look at that expression!!!
I must have missed the pic ??????
wtg superman.......
Yeah man you are gonna need to be a groomer with a shep. Check out the kind that hooks up to a shop vac. Also research a pinch collar. Yes they look awful. Used properly very humane. Safer than a choke. Shep's are very visual learners, so give a hand or body que for each verbal command.. Love them sheps prob more than cannabis if possible...

Oh man I missed the puppy pic?
Good call on the Parvo shots I'd get it soon cause that shit will walk in your house from the bottom of your feet.
You can't go wrong watching The Dog Whisper as he says "Be the Pack leader"

Congratz, GSD are awesome dogs, we had them all through my childhood/teens. Id have one now if I hadn't been Weimaraner obsessed for the past decade.
Puppies, natures way of telling you you have too stuff lying around LOL.
Heres to the start of a great partnership
Before you try a pinch/prong collar, give the "easy walk" harness a try, its sold under the gentle leader brand and its brilliant. but if you do get a prong, buy a Sprenger.
