Cuerpo y estructura

German Shepherd is a large dog with herding background whose build should be read beside high movement demand, very high trainability, and a grooming load of 2/5.

The German Shepherd was developed in late nineteenth-century Germany from regional herding dogs, then deliberately shaped as an all-purpose working dog. Its history explains the breed's handler focus, watchfulness, scent ability, and need for jobs that combine thinking with physical control.
