When should you be able to start training a German Shepherd?
German Shepherds are incredibly smart dogs. On a scale of 1 to 5 ( 1 being the least smart and 5 being ther smartest) a German Shepherd is 5. I would recommend that you start training the dog at about 2 or 3 months. This way your dog can learn young and do more in its lifetime. You have to be stern but gentle because you do not want to upset the dog. You should have a good relationship with the dog too before you begin any harder trainings. Dogs are very smart, and they can tell when you are mad at them or happy or pround. In the facility where I work, the dogs must be 12 weeks or older. The dogs learn well when rewarded properly. I hope this can be helpful. You may also want to look for other dog training books to help guide you along the way. Some suggestions for German Shepherds are as follows: Dog Breed Handbooks German Shepherd by Bruce Fogle, DVM; Animal Planet German Shepherd Dogs by Susan M. Ewing;German Shepherd Dog by Susan Samms; The German Shepherd Dog by Diane Morgan.
