How to care for a German Shepherd

 

Very intelligent and extremely attached to its family, the German Shepherd is a dog that does not require very specific care to have a long, happy and playful life alongside its humans. But, like every large dog, it requires attention to some simple details, such as feeding, training, hair care and joint care.

 

Are you one of the shepherds' lovers? Always wanted one in your home, but want more information about optimal care for these dogs that are always on the alert? Stay with us. We have prepared a text with everything you need to know about caring for a German Shepherd.

 

Main care

As they are very intelligent and extremely active, German Shepherds need to have their minds constantly challenged. Want to see your dog happy? Set up mind games where he needs to, for example, find a little ball, snack, or favorite toy that is very well hidden.

 

Very active, the German Shepherd needs to be always exercising. So even if you live in an apartment and don't have a very large backyard, it's important to ensure that the dog is always on the move.

 

Here, the ideal is for the pastors' dads and moms to walk with them on the street or in the park next to the house every day. Letting them run outdoors is also an excellent alternative to keep them happy and healthy.

 

Ideal food for the German Shepherd

Large and very strong dogs, German Shepherds need a complete diet to maintain their health and be always ready to play with their dear human friends. As they grow fast, the ideal is that they consume special rations for large dogs that help keep their bones strong and can jump and run without suffering any problems with so much activity.

 

In addition, the black cape German Shepherd also needs a diet rich in proteins, glucosamine, chondroitin, omegas 3 and 6, in addition to vitamins A, D, K and E As the breed tends to suffer from gastric torsion (a serious problem that can kill your pet), it is recommended that the German Shepherd eat two to three times a day properly divided portions.

 

How to train a German Shepherd?

The training of a black cape German Shepherd puppy can begin as early as two months. It is at this stage that the puppy begins to understand the commands that his human gives him and understands when he can or cannot do something.

 

So that training doesn't get boring, daddies can play with it while training it. For example, you can lie down and roll on the floor so that he repeats the movements. So he relaxes and understands that this moment is important for the two of you to interact.

 

Pastors love to play and expend energy. Therefore, at the time of training, bet on exercises that make them have so much fun that the only thing to do after classes is to sleep a little, to recover energy.

 

Dogs of this breed are very attached to their humans and love to be around them. At the time of training, rewarding him with love, in addition to good snacks, when he does something right is an interesting way to ensure that the training will work.

 

Is your German Shepherd puppy a little stubborn? Is training being harder than you thought? Do not give up. Some dogs, like us, are more temperamental and a little more stubborn.

 

So, if you are having any difficulties with training your shepherd, bet on affection and short commands, which are easier to understand than very complicated commands and that demand more from the puppies at first.

 

How to take care of my shepherd's fur?

With a very dense coat, ideal to protect the animal from the cold and insects, the German Shepherd black cape needs to be brushed frequently, preferably every week.

 

This care is important to keep the hair shiny and to remove the dead ones, ensuring that your shepherd's coat is always fresh and shiny. Baths must be given once a month.
