Hard to believe Dallas is already 9 years old. Ugh. She’s fine and I am so happy she is doing amazing! I’m so blessed to have her and thank God daily for what she has helped me with in my life!

AKC STANDARD:
Males:
Weight: 65–90 pounds (29.5–40.8 kg)
Height: 24–26 inches (60–65 cm) at the shoulder
Females:
Weight: 50–70 pounds (22.7–31.7 kg)
Height: 22–24 inches (55–60 cm) at the shoulder

GSDs should not be 130lbs.

Heavier dogs are generally less ideal for protection or police work not because of their strength, but because of the trade-offs that come with added weight. In working dogs like German Shepherds, agility, endurance, and control are far more important than raw mass.

Extra weight is reduced agility, lower stamina AND endurance. Increased risk to injury. Handling and control issues.

I will take my SMALL (in standard, by the way) dogs any day of the week for the work we do.

Dallas is going to be getting gsd puppy soon. - we hope she adjusts well. Thankfully we have a little more time to work a lot more obedience. We have her CGC and CGCA, now to achieve her CGCU soon. And whatever else she can achieve:). .

BREAKING NEWS -- use caution when feeding your dog fresh food from brands such as The Farmers Dog, JustFoodForDogs and Nom Nom⚠️

The University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine Urolith Center has discovered a NEW urinary stone and the likely cause🔬
The UMN Urolith Center is the laboratory we use for all bladder stone analysis that are conducted for HAH patients and we recently received notification of this new information.

These new stones are called "calcium tartrate tetrahydrate" (CTT) uroliths according to Dr. Lulich (co-director of UMN Urolith Center). Canine patients get "choline bitartrate" (the main compound in CTT uroliths) from fresh dog food and supplements recommended for dogs that eat homemade food.
The data collected by Dr. Lulich and his team showed a clear link between choline bitartrate found in some of the most popular fresh dog food brands -- including The Farmers Dog, JustFoodForDogs and Nom Nom -- and the newly discovered CTT uroliths.

This discovery was published in April 2025 in the Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine.
