You love German Shepherds. They are great family dogs exhibiting fierce loyalty, impressive good looks, intelligence, courage, and a highly protective nature. Who can blame you for wanting a German Shepherd as your lifelong "best friend" and protector? Not so fast! While it's true that the German Shepherd is a popular, highly valued and desirable canine companion; the breed, much like all breeds, is not a perfect fit for every person, setting, lifestyle or family situation. Amy Morford created the The German Shepherd Big Book to help you figure out if a German Shepherd is a good pet for your individual needs as well as determining if you can meet the demanding emotional and physical requirements of the breed. This book is not intended as a training guide. It was created to familiarize you with the German's Shepherd's background, main characteristics, dominant traits, and health concerns; with tips on selection and care. Morford kicks off with a fascinating history of the breed--thoroughly explaining how a dog that was originally bred to herd sheep morphed into a drug and cadaver discovery working dog; a service and therapy dog to the blind, deaf, and disabled; protective family pet, military dog or police patrol partner. In the second chapter, Morford examines the time, money, energy-level, and lifestyle required to meet the needs of a German Shepherd so that both the dog and its human companion aren't miserable because of a failure to provide proper food, shelter, exercise, and companionship. To assist in selecting your first German Shepherd, Morford compares and contrasts American versus German bloodlines; male versus female: a puppy versus an adult dog; various coat types and colors; and breeder versus rescue adoption. Two must-read chapters concern how to select a breeder and common health problems experienced by the breed. Don't buy a German Shepherd without reading those chapters!

Conclusion Author Bio Introduction Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole. Roger Caras ‘Man’s best friend.’ Is this the way you feel about your dog? I am sure you do! But do you know why domestic dogs are called man’s best friend? It’s because of their great loyalty, companionship and close relationship with humans over the years. A dog will stick to your side through thick and thin, just like a real friend. And there are amazing stories which prove this fact. If you would like to read some of them, ask your parents to help you search online. So, can you think of a particular dog you like? Many people have their own favorite and over the years, the American Kennel Club has published a list of the most beloved dogs. Can you guess which ones made the list? Of course people’s likes and dislikes tend to change over time, but for most of us, our love for dogs remain the same. How do you think the dogs feel in return? Did you know a dog can predict your behavior instinctively? He can ‘scent’ what you will do way before you do it. I know mine does. He always knows when I’m going to bathe him, and does his best to run away! The University of Abertay in Dundee actually did a study and found this to be true. A dog’s ability to ‘predict our desires’ is so keen, perhaps future generations of dogs won’t need that much training! Pretty neat, don’t you think? For this reason and more, dogs are renowned around the world for their constant devotion, and their right to be called… ‘Man’s best friend.’
