Information about German Shepherds
German Shepherds are easily recognisable thanks to their wolf-like appearance and radar-like ears. These dogs are often associated with guarding and protection tasks as guard dogs, police dogs, or service dogs, but they were originally bred as herding dogs, as their name suggests. Australia saw its first German Shepherds arrive around 1925. German Shepherds are usually one of the most loved and gentle pet animals for active households, with the right training and socialisation.
