About German Shepherds
The German Shepherd is one of the most recognizable and respected dog breeds in the world. Originating in Germany in the late 19th century, the breed was developed by Captain Max von Stephanitz, who sought to create the ideal working dog. Using local herding dogs as the foundation, he emphasized traits like intelligence, trainability, and physical prowess. Originally bred for herding and guarding livestock, the German Shepherd quickly became a versatile working breed, excelling in police work, search and rescue, military service, and as guide dogs for the visually impaired. Their loyalty, intelligence, and adaptability have made them a favorite for both working roles and as family companions.
