"Regarding The Complete Guide To German Shepherds, I can only say: Awesome We have had GSD's for many years, and we were really impressed with the information and the format of the book. If I was asked what was missing in this book, I would answer 'nothing'. Well written, insightful and a fun read." Brian Nainby - GSD owner

"I love this book simply because you can tell it is written by someone who also loves the German Shepherd breed" Sam Ireland - GSD owner

Taking the first step in deciding to get a dog can be a difficult one. Where do you start? Well, how about right here, and right now. The Complete Guide to German Shepherds is just that. The A to Z guide for the breed written in simple language. Why and when should you consider a German Shepherd? The Complete Guide to German Shepherds has those answers and many more.

Not all dogs are created equal. When it comes to GSD's (that's the short way to say German Shepherd Dog) they are truly a breed apart. They are large dogs; agile, fast, aggressive and intimidating if you want them to be. They are smart, loyal, inquisitive, persistent, protective and willing to push the boundaries. They're also willing to push your buttons if you let them. Sound like the dog for you? Sound like a challenge? You bet they are, but the payoff is a best friend who will never leave your side.

The Complete Guide to German shepherd will answer all your basic questions including:

  • Is a German Shepherd the right dog for me?
  • I brought my German Shepherd home. What now?
  • What are the best ways to train my GSD?
  • What are some common mistakes should I avoid?

The Complete Guide to German Shepherds gives you the basic lowdown on this fabled breed. Everything from the renowned history of Rin Tin Tin, to how to avoid having your fingers chewed off by a puppy who is all teeth, to enjoying your canine companion as he ages.
