Separate the mom and the babies for numerous hours (maybe 3 starting out) then put them back together. Later on (2 weeks) start separating them for 8 hours. About 2 weeks later take them away from their mommy overnight and see how they do If they whine alot, put them back together and start from the 8 hour mark. Once they stop whining, they are weened.

How old can the German sheperd grow to be?

German Shepherds can live commonly from 10-12 years. This is common if the dog is purebred. If it is not a purebred German Shepherd, then the dog may live shorter or longer. If you need more help, I would suggest purchasing The Dog Breed Bible by D. Caroline Colie, Ph. D. This book has helped me for years now.
