Dog Large
What large dog breed is best for me?
I would like to find a medium to large dog breed that is known for having a nice temperment and would be easy to raise with children. I would also like one that is easier to train and doesn’t shed too much. Any recommendations?
German Shepherd…….hands down! Smart, family oriented, do not shed much at all (if at all), very loyal and protective of their people. Easiest of the working class dog to train. They learn quick and retain everything they learn. I own one and she is my pride and joy. I am so egotistical about her because of how smart she is and show easily she picks up on things.
She is just over a year old and already knows the following tricks to a tee:
-rings a bell to tell us she needs to go outside the the bathroom
-sit, lay down, speak, sit pretty, high five, give hugs, give kisses, shake a paw, other paw, show me your tummy, roll over, bang you’re dead……(And she does all of these both with verbal and non-verbal sign language cues).
-She plays hide and seek, tag, fetches, etc.
She is low maintenance in regards to grooming and bathing. She is eager to please and is very loyal. She is protective of her family and property but is trained not to bite, only alert us to the presence of strangers. She does not bark at people she knows when they come over to the house. She does not bark when the doorbell rings. A lot of these traits came naturally with her, others we had to train her to do. But with minimal efforts.
Our other dog, an American Bulldog is another incredible animal but it takes him about 4 times the repitition and efforts to get him to learn the same things. Some of them he has not been able to master, like ringing a bell at the door to go outside.
Everyone will suggest either a lab or retriever when it comes to a family/kid pet. The German Sheppherd fits into these categories just perfect. One thing tho……it’s wise to get them as puppies or very young adults (9months to 2 years) so you can avoid any bad habits that have already developed with other owners. Good Luck!!!!
