7 Reasons You SHOULD NOT Get A Female German Shepherd

- 7 Reasons You SHOULD NOT Get A Female German Shepherd. If you're considering owning a female German Shepherd, it's important to be aware of both the pros and cons of this wonderful breed.
On the positive side, female German Shepherds are known for their loyalty and protective nature, making them excellent guard dogs and loyal companions. They are also highly intelligent and trainable, which makes them ideal for tasks such as search and rescue, police work, and even therapy dogs.
However, there are also some downsides to owning a female German Shepherd. For one, they can be quite territorial and possessive, which can lead to aggression if they feel threatened or if their territory is being invaded. They can also be prone to health issues such as hip dysplasia, which can be expensive to treat. Additionally, they require a lot of exercise and mental stimulation, and may become destructive if they don't receive enough attention or exercise.
Ultimately, owning a female German Shepherd can be a rewarding experience, but it's important to be aware of the potential challenges before making the commitment to bring one into your home. With proper training, socialization, and care, however, these loyal and intelligent dogs can make wonderful additions to any family.

My female GSD was the most beautiful and loving dog I ever had.
Sheila was used as a puppy breeding machine until she turned 8 years old. She had a brilliant pedigree, all German, and was a straight back, so didn't have hip problems.
She lived till she was 14 years old, our male GSD collapsed with hip problems at 9 years.
My experience with GSD is that females are more loving and amazing with children.
thats awesome!
I disagree with my female shepherd to Clingy & always start the barking outside.
My male Rottweiler is so good outside until she starts the barking shit.
He plays with the kids like a gentle giant and protective of entire family.
When she plays with the kids, meaning the female shepherd is very friggly.
The last female & male shepherds we had were golden!!! He lasted 12 years and Her 14 years.
I've been around Rottweilers since 1975 ,
I help cleaning & walking my friends' dogs.
Since 1990, that's the only dog i would ever have male Rottweilers. The females are very spiteful had two female Rottweilers never again.
my girl was just passed 10 years of age when she passed , just like your girl her back was straight but also did the same as your boy , out the blue she had just started to drag her back right then down she went
Our female Shepard is a titanic b×××h. We do love her but not because she goes out of her way to be lovable. She is 6 years old and has graced us with 3 or 4 kisses.
@@johnmorell2663That's down to it not having a job and being bored no offence buts that's on your part these dogs will be very anxious if they don't have a role. Can't blame the dog it's the owner
Our female GSD was not only breathtakingly gorgeous, she was obedient, loyal, protective, brave, sweet, loving, and lived to age 13. The problem with GSD's, m or f, is extreme breeding that destroys the hips. The challenge with female GSD's is not the dog but irresponsible owners. People who won't devote the expense and effort a dog of any kind requires don't deserve to own or be loved by one, especially a GSD.
Totally agree
I am a Zoology grad that lived where there are many wolves. I am most interested in Canine biology and have studied canine ethology most of my life. There is a sexual difference in male to females in German Shepherds. I have had many over my life, my preferred breed. Dr. Stanley Coran's group has said that German Shepherds are the breed most like the wolf behaviorally. Female Shepherds are most interested in the Family unit. They become obsessed with the family. while males are into the protection of the property, females are too to a lessor degree.
My last Shepherd was a female, and I think she was a wonderful protector for my wife, who died of Alzheimer's, the Grand Children and one of the very smartest shepherds that I have ever owned. It was a male Shepherd that saved my ex's life.
Lucky people have security systems. The Very fortunate have a Shepherd.
I’m sorry to hear about your wife. I’m a retired nurse, seen my share. We just picked up our 3rd GS. Our first was a female. She lived to 11. Monte, who passed unexpectedly last Thursday was almost 10 but volvulus (always my nightmare) took him. An exceptional dog in every way. Now our female is almost 12 weeks. Monte was a piece of cake to train. This female pup is proving to be a tad stubborn and vocal but, I like it. Everyone loves their dogs. Everyone of them are the best. German Shepherd’s have that something else that that proves elusive to describe. The protection is paramount to me. I live in rural Maine. About 8 years ago there was a string of home burglaries in the area. Went to a local meetup with State Police and they said no home with a dog was burglarized. I had a big smile hearing that. I appreciate your post here. I love wolves. I saw a large one around 20 years ago nearby. Nobody believed me but, I know a coyote from a wolf. Also, Monte sang (not howled) along with my harmonica playing. When he sang he took it seriously. Like his whole heart was into it. There’s a clip on CZcams with someone playing Ave Maria on drinking glasses. Monte sang along to this with near perfect pitch. Very solemn when he did this. I’m still not over him. The snow is melting and with it his paw prints are disappearing by the hour. I weep for him. I miss him. But, this puppy is in a home of love. She knows that. To me, German Shepherd’s just want to be with you. Period. They want to herd you. Monte surely thought I couldn’t move around the house without his direction! It’s extremely endearing. Like I always said to Monte “You’ve got my back and I’ve got yours!”
Regards
@@bebopredux Wow I feel sorry for people that don't get to see wolves. Literally every time I went West to Banff, I saw wolves. They were in the tree line watching. One time I stopped my car to open my Gator Aid I looked up and I had Timber wolves surrounding my car. I was in a VW Jetta so they were looking down at me. 7 or 8 of them. On all sides.
There is real love in a Shepherd for her family. When my wife passed, my dog got up and walked away., she knew it was over. But when her friends came to get her clothes for the women's shelter, my dog picked up my wife's tennis shoes and walked off. She kept those shoes in one of her beds around the house until the day that she died. If you think about it, a dogs primary sensory input is their sense of smell. Not their eyes like a primate. She kept a memento of my wife in the best way that she could.
Yeah my girls far more protective than the boy but both in a very loyal way
I was also a Zoology grad and have had 25 years of pairs of GSDs. They all protected me and my husband. Once it was 2 female and a male to chased away a burglar all together late at night. Last was a lone female who blocked a burglar inside the house for 20 minutes until the police came. She was perfect ,is now 10 and very healthy, never a single medical problem. My young male is the most active and highest German line working dog I have ever had. He barks at every stranger, but is very friendly when I signal him to be. He is only 2 years old. He and my older Heidi work well together in protection.
❤
The female Shepherd will put her life on the line for you.
All my females had longevity .
They are highly trainable, and super protective if you put a bit of effort into them for the first year you will have the best dog in the world
Make GSD are outgoing but not female.
I agree. My female was of pure European bloodlines. Brave. Bold. Protective. Obedient. She was the Alpha to two much larger males. 😂❤
I disagree with this completely. Not my experience at all.
Me too. My girly pup, (who's now 9 years old already 😮) has been an absolute blessing, with all the snoots, boops, bops and fusses and all in between. Wouldn't trade her for all the riches in the world. 🐾
Same here I disagree and don't think that person has ever owned a female do never mind a GSD female lol. I have had 2 female GSDs. First lived to 15
Exactly. My female gsds have been the most loyal and protective vs the males that I have had
@@iamjustadad6951 Thanks man because I’m looking at this mixed German/Husky and she grabbing my heart right now
Ohhhhh, the temperament is bs. Mine is obedient instantly. She is the one in charge of my 2 males. Males are more protective of me than my female, she’s mutual.
I have a female Czech German Shepherd, none of this is no big deal. They are very smart and true, they are dormant and protective. They also are very affectenent to the one person they choose as their master. Not only that, but they are very jealous as well. But don't let this keep you from an awesome dog. The biggest thing is to make sure they get enough exercise. I have to play ball with mine twice a day to get the energy out of her. They are not dogs for couch potatoes. Plus, I take her for walks 2 to 3 times a week. They love to explore. They are herding dogs, after all. They love to play too. And they love to learn, it builds their confidence. The more time you spend with your GSD teaching them tricks or walking or agility tracking or defense, the better they like it, I love my GSD
Amen ❤
I had a female Belgian Malinois, which was very protective, loyal, intelligent, loving etc.. and recently passed away 12-20-23 live at age 13 and 6 months Miss you Styx 😔 😢 💔 love you so much
I’m sorry for your loss ❤😢
A malinois is not a GSD.
Love the bread ❤
Oops I mean I love the breed
All these topics go for the male too. You have to get them nutierd. Then can also have temperament problems. At this point you are just making up ideas for videos
Neutering a dog isn't necessary, it's more of a trend nowadays. I never neuter my male dogs for the simple fact; big boned & big head with no balls? Nah..not mine
@@ferdinandhuergas6040 true
@@ferdinandhuergas6040neutered male dogs lived 18% longer. neutering decreases the chances of developing prostatic disease and hernias, and eliminates the chances of developing testicular cancer
I have to say my female GSD was a lot smarter than my males. Female is easier to train to. I find my male is more stubborn. So no I don't agree what this guy is saying.
I have a 3 year old German Shepherd she's a big baby loves everyone and always at my husband's side. She's very good. Also shedding is ridiculous they she'd all year round so be ware.
I hear you I take mine out and blow off with the reverse system on the vacuum
German shedders!!
Like so many others, I must say that my female GSD was nothing like this CZcamsr described. She was an old dog who adopted me at the local shelter. She had heartworm but I paid $2.5K for treatment - and she was worth every penny. She was incredibly smart, loyal, protective, and a great companion. She died around 15 years ago and I still miss her company.
Our neighbor had two. A Grey one that lived nearly 16 years and a black one that lived 13 years.
Both were good to us, though they lived next door and would often come visit.
That’s great!
My families female GSD is super well trained and listens perfectly. I even have her off leash voice trained. Most owners don’t take the time required to maintain the master role these animals need.
I had an GS//Japanese Akita crossbreed and for our 11years together she was settled, outside regarding those issues you’ve mentioned. During her seasonal X2, she’d’ bash out a couple of minutes worth of frustrations out of my bedroom pillows - but could take a verbal telling off without aggressive reaction.. she also had an adorable, mutual, respectful goofy character -which, just like humans, showed a different side dependant on who in the family she was entertaining. She died in March, 6wks after my husband’s passing. Obviously, it’s very,very different without them, but she & my husband we’re a ‘team’ thanks for helping understand the care & vigilance needed for the female dog. Best wishes, JaneR
Heat cycles, pregnancy, spaying and breeding issues are true of EVERY female dog.
We raised 2 male German Shepherds and loved them. When the second one passed, we were probably going to get another one. Then a friend connected us with a family that could not take care of a female GSD. We adopted Ivory and could not be happier!
Same here ...my one dog passed a few days back...not sure to get one for the other as a new companion or not bcz he's also half of his age now
GSD Females are the absolute BEST. I’ve had them bred them trained them and they are amazing!!! Will be getting another one soon!!!
That is awesome!
My oldest brother had two German Shepherds, Rebel and Brandy; a brother and sister from the same litter. I don't remember if David got them in the late 1980s, or in the early 1990s. They were so sweet. We babied them their whole lives. They both died of cancer in the early part of this century. Rebel died first and Brandy a year later. Their vet used to tell us that Rebel and Brandy were the gentlest German Shepherds they had ever seen. They would let the doctor do anything he needed to, to them. They loved me. I was their favorite "uncle". If I was in the yard with them, and someone drove up that they did not know, they would get in front of me and sit, or stand; but they would smile at that person. They would not growl, or snarl, or act aggressive at that person; but if you have a functioning brain, and valued your life, you would not get any closer; because they would have killed you. They were the same way with my brother's two granddaughters who were like four and six at the time. We didn't train them to be that way. We loved them and respected them and let them be themselves. We didn't try to be too controlling. I miss them so much. After Rebel and Brandy died, we got wolves. They're all gone now. David's two wolves loved me. If I was in the pen with them, and some stranger came by, or a strange dog came by; they would not let me leave the pen until that person or dog was gone. They would not let me near their gate. They were all incredibly smart, the Shepherds and the wolves.
The shepherd with the all black face in this video looks like a black lab in a German Shepherd costume! 😂
I have owned and raised female German Shepherds never owned a male and I can tell you without a doubt they are extremely intelligent eager to please and great with children. They become their nannies never leave their side. They do not tire so easily. My females are always ready to go out for walks and runs and some are protective it all depends how you raise them. If you don't associate any German Shepherd they can get aggressive. If your not going to breed them get your female spayed so you don't have to worry about the heat cycle, pregnancy or them getting annoying. It's not that big of a deal. Spaying also helps prolong their life and I recommend to get them spayed before their first heat cycle . I always do never had a problem. When they are puppies it's less a hassle with them being down within a week or so they will start feeling better. They the best dogs I ever owned and can't see myself owning any other breed. They are not meant for just any owner or lazy owners these dogs need attention, grooming and exercise or can get destructive/annoying. I consider German Shepherd active breeds and very territorial and vocal these dogs tend to bark a lot.
I love German shepherds!
Can't say a bad thing tbh, they are the perfect dog
None are any reasons lol
Triggered….on an informative dog video stating statistics
So true
Yes females are awesome
@@coleshelton6469what stats? That females die 2 years younger than males? That’s not very statistical. Give me more such as where are stats about girls being more dominant or mood-swinging?
I was out at point one, sentence one!
Our female GS was the best dog we ever had for her 13 years with us. She loved our children and was family
My female GSD was the best dog I’ve ever had and I’ve had so many different dogs including a male gsd
I have had 6 GSDs, 2 at a time. Always a male and female. I only bred once. She was a good girl.all my GSDs have been from Germany. I followed the German Schutzhund rules. It was not hard to neuter my dogs at age two, as recommended. My current female is 10, has always be healthy and happy. I will keep doing this. When Heidi passes, I will get a retired breeding female, spayed. My male is neutered already. I notice no difference in love and behavior. All my dogs protect me, but I train them to be socialized.
Have had 5 GSD bitches over 50 years, never really had any problems, and they lived to be 13/ 12/ 11/ 11 and at present 4 so life expectancy isn't a problem. Also they are very affectionate.. Would certainly recommend them as a pet.
I prefer the females to the males. If you have both watch how the male will defer to the female when it comes to the family unit. The female defers to the male outside or for protecting the territorial space.
👍
Never have seen any issue with my female Czech GSD. She’s a big sweetie and far less intimidating and aggressive than my male Czech GSD. She’s a huge lover and still acts like a puppy - maybe it’s because she knows that her big bro has the protection and intimidation all locked down lol.
awesome!!
hello, i wanna ask a question, bro(guess ur a man). do you recommend female GSD?
@@Gitartelitete Females in non-working lines can be great family doggos that are definitely more chill than the working lines. If its a female working line GSD, i would suggest having an older pup to help relieve some energy because they will definitely need to be ran or worked to get them to be calm. But if you train a female and work with her, what an amazing dog youll have - they love to train and work and do whatever you ask of them - plus, the females seem to be a little more crazy in a funny way. All depends on what youre looking for in a pooch!
@@autzenduck989 thank you. one more question pls, how to know my gsd is working-line or non-workin?
@@Gitartelitete Your breeder would know or check papers - if you dont have access to either, a good way to know is how big is your GSD? What is the weight? Working lines tend to be a little smaller. around 80+ pounds for males and 65+ pounds for females.
I am fostering one now. I have a male also and they get along famously. She is well behaved and affectionate.
So this just sounds like owning pretty much any female animal? Am I wrong? I mean mentioning the health issues is the only thing I didn't know here...
I couldn't love my female GSD more and I believe she feels the same way about our family.
My wife and I have raised and bred Shepards for over 34 years. Female GSD’s are my favorite. All of our girls are protective. They are big smugglers. Best ones we have ever owned. Love my girls.
My last german sheppard was female. She's still alive but deaf and blind and with my parents. She was the best dog any of us have ever met. She was raised in the bush and never needed a shred of discipline. Came when she was called and protected from day one.
I have a 3 month male her adult size right now, and although he's pretty special, he doesn't rank on her scale. For what it's worth.
We have had both sexes since 1974. No more males for us; too aggressive. Our females last about 15 years. All trail runners when young and all live on a big farm here in central Oregon.
I love German shepherd. I adore the breed. No other dog is as loyal or as beautiful. But I'm prejudice
1:00 isn’t that what spayed/neutering is for??
As an Female GSD owner I would not agree with any of these 😅
Female dogs are very over protective and they tend to fall in love with their owners.
Can't ask for more than that.
I have two 4 and 3 years old Female GSD. They are all sprayed. My two angels they are my loyal and very confident friends. I will know the risks but I love them.
DON'T get your dog "fixed right away". Doing so too early can cause health issues down the line. It's actually recommended to wait until 2 years of age in some breeds, despite what some people may be telling you. Don't let your vet rush you into it. Do your research first.
Why does this feel sexist 💀
1. She has a period
2. She costs money
3. She has the ability to get pregnant
Have my sons female, we bonded right away. Was very honored she wants to sleep in my bedroom. She is not overly affectionate like a male dog. But I feel so safe with her.
My female GSD IS 1 YEAR OLD just now experincing her first heat .
She is a hand full . I am retired and spend all day and all night with her .
She is under my feet every where I go
I love her . All 85 pounds of her.
She is so intelligent ..very powerful ...anti social .
I will always love my Kira. I miss you so much you were the best. She was wonderful
Well I heard that male German shepherds are not easy to train but the female German shepherds are easy to train
I love my German shepherd she is totally my amazing best friend. I miss her can’t wait to get home to see her she misses me and runs to the door and is excited to see me regardless of time I get home. She keeps my wife busy. It is a full time job and they need lots of love if you can’t treat them like your own then you don’t deserve one. They are very energetic they need lots of play time. Long walks super smart animals. Now I feel like I’m part of the wolf pack. She talks to me. Tells me when my car is running Ruff ruff
My male died at 9. My female was 13. She lived the longest of all the dogs I’ve had in my life. Close 2nd, was my female Rottweiler ❤
I have a female GSD and I call bullsh!t on this. She's the most loving, calm and gentle girl you could ask for.
I’ve owned 15/20 GSD bitches throughout my life,over 70 years with know problems whatsoever. So much better and easier than the several GSD dogs I’ve owned. Training exercise and fun is what they need like agility etc. All lived to a minimum of 10 years old.
Right now I’ve two bitches and a dog, out of all the different breeds I’ve had I always go back to having a GSD BITCH
👍
Our female GSD was with us for almost 13 years. Hands down the most beautiful, protective partner one could ever imagine. You have to put in the time, effort, love and leadership...but the rewards will last a lifetime. We miss our girl dearly.
This video is useless. This is not good information.. Seek guidance elsewhere.
My last GSD (female) lived to 15 years. Not only GS but I’ve had 6 dogs all but 1 female. I find female dogs are more intelligent, wiser more faithful and attached.
Knock on wood..... none of the Females i have owned in the last 35 years have passed younger than 13. My oldest was just shy of 15.
I have an 11yr old European line longcoat that has perfect teeth, has never limped, runs, chases the ball. Her weight is perfect....being overweight is a good way to shorten any dogs life. Her coat is in great shape. She does nap a little longer than she used to but otherwise her vet says she is in great health. She was spayed at 1 yr....
Her half sister is a year younger. She still has the energy of a 4-5 yr old however she has always thought she was a Mal.... she does have tooth wear because she is an aggressive chewer. She also has perfect body weight. She is will be 10 in a couple months. She was spayed at 6 years after she had 2 litters of pups.
Mammary cancer is usually caused from having a female that hasn't been spayed but has never had pups. The longer they go, once they reach maturity at 2 years...the higher the risk.
The same is true for males.
I have been training and showing dogs for 48 yrs, 35 of them gsd's. I have never had a dog get a UTI, have any problems concerning their urinary system period.
Both male and female german shepherds are the best. I'm 100% convinced that if you treat any german shepherd well, it will become a great dog.
My female GSD is the best dog I’ve ever had-made me fall in love with the breed. Yes, she’s got attitude but it’s hilarious and always playful! Females I would also assume have much more of a sense of family and mine has been with me through so much…We are a team now :) …Plus, Female dogs also don’t go to the bathroom all over the place marking their territory-can’t stand that about male dogs, lol! She never chewed furniture, took no time at all to be potty trained, and doesn’t get aggressive over food, treats, or toys :)
I’m a GSD owner, and the only thing that has been stated correctly, is the annoyance of heat cycles.
*Absolute NONSENSE! FEMALE GERMAN SHEPHERDS ARE THE VERY BEST. BEST DOG EVER and after 11 years, I purchased another female LESS THAN 48 hours after my previous female. She never required training, but you would have never known it, she was absolutely precise in her every move.*
My grandma is 70 and she has a female german shepherd and she is great
I want a GSD!
You will never be the same....our swet boy was amazing...love the head tilt and eyebrows
ME TOO! Im 43 and haven't had a dog since I was a child.
Isn't this true with all breeds of dogs?
#1. My female was intact until 12. She died at 13.
She always kept herself spotless. As for roaming? Never. She had a neutered male BF who kept her “satisfied”. 😂😂😂
We had a female. Dog guarded my wife like nothing I've ever seen. It bit me a couple times because I made a sudden move the dog wasn't expecting like running to answer the phone. Dog was the best guard dog in the world.
My female working line GSD was TIL THIS DAY my best friend ever. I think about her everyday. Loyal, loving, friendly to people, but protective and intimidating when I needed her to be, super smart, quickly trained. She was beyond man's best friend. Lol! RIP Kemba 💓
I have a female German Shepherd and she not cuddly but very loving and is smart ,protective and gets along great with her dogs sisters who are both female beagle mixes we love our Molly very much
I have a female German Shepherd and you can not be more wrong about it, she is around 3 female dogs and I have no problem with her, she is fixed and has regular checkups and she is also K9 trained. Know before you buy read about the breed ❤much love and peace ☮️
I have a male and female German shepherd.
And they both are lovely.
Kindly don't spread misunderstanding among others, if they wanna female German shepherd they will, its their choice.
He just described issues that can happen with any breed. I've had and currently have a female German Shepherd. People that experience problems with dogs has to do with training and time put in with the dog. With a GSD you can't be a couch potato. They need plenty of exercise and mental stimulation to keep them happy and not bored. Female GSDs tend to "think" more before following a command but they do respond and are not more difficult to train.
German Shepherds are awesome dogs in so many ways. The best. Period. End of discussion.
All my GS have been female......spayed......loving.....delightful......living to be 14-16 years......I miss them all dreadfully.....I am certain my 2-year-old GS will follow in their pawprints.....which are big pawprints to fill.......
I’ve been around female German Shepherds most of my life. And when I got my own GS dog, she became the sweetest and most loyal dog I’ve ever had. This video is nonsense
Unfortunately, I had a female German Shepherd. She was the best she was my puppy. She lived to be 15 years old other than the surgery everything you said, she contradicted every bit of what you said, other than being loyal.
Getting a dog in general will mean expenses. Having a dog have pros and cons.
Ridiculous topic ¡¡
😑
My female GSD has been a loyal, protective, and incredibly sweet member of the family. A lot of what this video discusses is just basic dog care. If you can't meet a dog's basic medical and training needs, don't get the dog.
I’ve always had females and I love them.
Amazing dogs for sure
Pls.tell about male GS in the next video!
You are so wrong on so many levels. I have four female dogs from a 12 pound -13 year old papillon, 9-yr old husky, 3-yr old husky/gsd mix and a 9-month old 73-pound imported black GSD from West Germany. They all get along well together, because as a responsible dog owner I work with all of my dogs daily. I have had male dogs in the past, and they are more about protecting the property vs my late GDS --she watched over me and my family. She was loyal, sweet, and very gentle with small children. (She would lay down on the ground whenever a child would walk up to her). As far as mood swings, we all have them--including male dogs. A lot of female dogs will want to be close to their handler or family during that time. I don't see anything wrong with this behavior.
One more
I nevered worried if any of our GSDs got out . They all loved kids. I miss my late wife.She was the dog person and required our first to be a GSD. Best decision.
Heat cycles and bleeding indoors isn't really a problem..
If your shepherd is mostly an indoor dog than you already have to clean every 2 days at least once lol, a "dirty" shepherd is a happy shepherd and if you are to lazy to clean your own mess than you don't need to get a shepherd or any other shedding breed.
Just use some moist toilet paper to clean those blood drops and if they are allowed on the couch than just put some blankets on top of 1 of those baby/kids bed covers for peeing in bed so that the couch wont get stains
My wife when 8 yrs and younger told me a story how she was almost attacked by a GSD but the father GSD to the pup stopped him from attacking her and protected her whilst she ran upstairs in fear
My GSD female lived to 16 and was a personal bodyguard. I thought she was easier to train then a male'
Simple reasons that no one really borders. We have female shepherds and we feel they are preferable, as always. We never had problems such as infection, and they live longer than average males. Just need to give them what we eat, especially meat. No dry crap which with give to dogs. People have different views and preferences, and those are respected!
I heard on another video that male GSD's are more aggressive and that male GSD's die earlier -- I'm just going to get a book written by a dog professional to find out the real facts
I have always owned female GSDs with the occasional male GSD. I will take a female over a male any day. They have proven to be more protective of the family than a male GSD. But you will find either one to be very smart and naturally protective when the need arises. I use mine as herding dogs on the farm and their natural protective instincts keep the small/large livestock safe as well as myself.
4 months in, with a female GSD. Vet estimated Nayla was 9 months old when I got her. No background knowledge of her past, other than last owners had her for a couple weeks and gave up. Black and gold, and draws attention everywhere we go. Good around people, but aggressive to other dogs. All dogs. That is a hassle on our long walks. But what really stands out, is her ability to judge strangers. Mostly she wants to go over and meet new people, but occasionally I sense she is uncomfortable, starts to hunch down, ears and eyes locked on stranger, hair standing up. Annoyed to what she has done to sofa, and any cardboard box. But took it in stride, because she is so loving, loyal, and protective. I just couldn't let her go to a shelter. First month timid, head and ears down when being scolded. Now it's a blank stare, she rules the house.
If you work with a trainer to overcome her fear and mistrust of other dogs, she'll be more confident and make more friends. In three sessions, our trainer had figured out what was going on with the dog, how we were making it worse and how to fix the problem. Worth every penny.
I adopted my at female G.S.D. when she was 6 she had mammery gland issues before i got her she had been passed up by maney people that didnt want to take a chance there were no probleme for 6 more yrs. She was the best freind anyone could ask for she died 1/13 /24 i feel like she's still watching every move i make i miss her! She was my 4th. female G.S.D.
The only reason I didn't enjoy having a GSD was because of hip displaysia. They shed a lot and they cost a lot but they are totally worth it. Males tend to be more active and goofy where females are a bit more reserved and certainly more protective. Either way they are totally worth every day.
My females have all been the best and so well behaved and loving
My female German Shepherd might be the best dog on Planet Earth.
Your dog should be spayed.
Item #1 and Item #2 and Item #3 pertain to all female dogs.
Item #4 is completely backwards.
#5: I WANT my German Shepherd to protect me.
I am glad female GS owners are here responding to this nonsense.
Reason number four goes for the entire female world.😂
Adopted a 2 and a half year old GS into a pack with already 3 other females. She has adapted great. Looks like she has been living here her whole life. Have to disagree with video
I was always partial to male GSD, but females in other breeds. Just love that big block head & goofiness that lasts a lifetime. Calm 🥰 boys.
That is BS, I have a pair of german shepherds. Both dogs are intact. The female is 7 and the male is 4. My female GSD is so clean that it is very difficult to notice the beggining of the heat cycle if not for 1 or 2 drops of blood on the floor. The heat cycle does not even bother her at all. She has had puppies two times and it was such a joy to have them. In fact my male is the father of the second litter(she was 5 at the time and he was 2). I keep carefull tabs on her heat cycles and my family and I had discovered that for our pair, during the first week of her cycle we don't need to separate them as her hormones levels didn't bother our male. After that he does not have any contact with her until her heat is gone. We know our dogs and we know what to look for. We had prepared ourselfs for that second litter and even we had timed it with her april heat cycle so the pupps could be born in the summer. Having a female GSD is no more difficult to having a male and for someone to produce such a video shows that either he does not know the breed or has heard from somewhere that having a male dog is better than having a female in general. Females dogs aren't to different from males, infact my female had taken the role of the guard dog in the family instead of my male as he would greet anyone even strangers with licks and kisses, while she is the watcher and she has even managed to foil an attempted bulgrary, as few years ago we had a series of thefts in our neibourhoud and one night I saw a car that stopped infront of my house and stayed a long time with her engine running and her lights on, but my female sensed that something was wrong an her barking woke us and I could see from my bedroom window( that overlooks the street) the car departing. At the time it was only me and my mother at home as my father was out of the country on a business trip. Of it wasn't for my female there was a high chance that we could have been robbed. My male mainwhile had been asleep and it wasn't until we showed up to see what was wrong that he woke up.
Bah! This sounded so misogynistic! My girls were absolutely the best!!
My female GSD was amazing she was the sweetest dog - and super easy to train and no dominance. This crap that make absolutely no sense.
Over many years ,we had 5 GSDs 4 females and 1 male. They were all great. I'm too old now to properly care for one. The.last, Tasha lived to 13. Fortunately, I have a "grand dog" , a Newfoundland. Great dog, but not a GSD.
I have only had female GSD s. They are loving and loyal. A spat after the first period is all it takes. No one should breed GSD s unless they know what they’re doing.
I’ve got 9 pups left in north Florida. Sables and bi color 🐺
awesome!
dude theses are lies female gsd are way easier to train then male since the female is more intelligent than the male and the females don't shed much and if you don't want a heavy gsd females are the way to go i am getting a female gsd soon and some of this is barely true and their temper is very relaxed calm but if you train them to be aggressive then they will ether way they already have protection in their DNA they don't need that much training i am naming my gsd lucy and ive done research and i bunch of stuff before i get her and the male and female have the same health problem situation but maybe the male has more
