German Shephereds are among the finest of dog breeds available. As you can guess by the name, Germans were the ones who made the breed a standard, and they did that in around the beginning of the 20th century, near the end of the 19th century. Max von Stephanitz was the man responsible for making the dog breed so famous and standardized. They’re a very versatile breed, good for both protection and jobs, as well as home pets.
Highly intelligent, these creatures are easy to train and easier to command due to their unwavering loyalty. They weren’t actually that common in the west either, until after World War I when they were used as combat animals. That’s when the western countries like England knew what they were capable of. It was introduced further into America and then bred for further variations, but remain forever the true German Shepherd.

Despite the vicious power these animals are capable of, they’re actually giant softies. Full of love and affection towards their humans, they would go to great lengths to protect them. America, in particular, is a huge fan of German Shepherds. in 2014, they were the second most popular dog breed in the entire country, and actually the most popular across the board in certain cities like Miami and Nashville.

Despite the chaos that comes with owning a pup, German Shepherds are probably the most easiest to deal with. They’re not just intelligent, they’re very highly intelligent, estimated to be the third most intelligent dog breed ever. They’ll listen to your commands, and follow them dutifully, making them perhaps one of the nicest pets to have around the house. You can train them not to do something you know is bad.
