Training & Health
are two very important aspects to dog ownership, especially
when caring for the working German Shepherd Dog.
There are many different philosophies of dog training, and even more
dog sports/activities that you can be involved in. Some
favorite pastimes of dog owners are:
-Flyball
-Schutzhund
-Agility
-Tracking
-Herding
My sport of choice is Schutzhund, this rewarding activity allows me
to train year round, and compete against other dog/handler teams.
This is a source of mental stimulation for both myself and the dogs.
To keep everyone healthy and active, I hike with them in the summer
and skijor with them in the winter. Daily exercise and proper
nutrition are essential to every dog. If the GSD is your
lifelong companion of choice, a proper level of commitment to their
well being should be actively desired.
I hope you can utilize this section of the website to research how
best to address the health and training of your dog.
