Due to having the most amount of experience with German Shepherds they will be the first breed highlight!

I would like to start by saying I highly recommend against getting this breed if you are not an experienced dog owner. This is a breed I would put a lot of research into before deciding on getting one!

The German Shepherd was originated in Germany in 1899 by Max Von Stephanitz to heard sheep! As time went by people found that this breed was capable of doing other things such as police work, aiding disabled people (service work), and search and rescue! Due to this breeds more common line of work now a days a lot of people believe the German Shepherd to be a “naturally protective” breed which is actually far from the truth. These dogs are often chosen as pets due to the fact that they are easy to train, versatile, and family oriented. However there are some traits that should also be accounted for, they are also known to be weary of strangers (which often leads to reactivity when not thoroughly socialized and this trait is often mistaken as them being protective) and they are prone to SSA (same s*x aggression).

Due to this breeds high energy and need for work they require a decent amount of exercise and mental stimulation to fufil their needs! With the right training and socialization techniques they make amazing family dogs!

(I personally own and raise German shepherds and I chose the breed due to their high intelligence, need for companionship and i actually like dogs that are weary of strangers because with the right training I find dogs with that trait focus more on their handler than strangers that are around them if you’ve got the life style to suit them they make amazing pets)

I feel like playtime isn’t talked about a lot in dog training I strongly encourage my clients to take the time and play with their dog one on one!

Why is playtime important?
Well not only will it help tire out your dog but it also strengthens your bond with your dog which will help them engage with you! I find when you have a strong bond with your dog training goes a lot smoother plus just like people dogs listen better to someone they have a stronger relationship with! Is your dog destructive? Maybe they are bored playtime helps with boredom too!

Go out and work on your bond! play tug, chase them around the yard!
