[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve only had one (current dog). We got it from a breed-specific rescue, and they stressed that GSDs are smart working breeds that do best w/o long stretches left alone and have somewhat high exercise needs. Luckily one of us was often home during the day, and on other days we planned to take him to a doggie daycare, so they let us adopt a puppy. We live him but he is a LOT of work for us. We’re also first-time dog owners.[/quote] PP. Also, they can be very protective, and also excessively nervous and aggressive if not properly socialised. In hindsight, we should have spent a lot more time on socialisation in a variety of contexts in public and with strangers. Our dog is great with us, but we have to put him away whenever we have visitors.[/quote]
