Say Hello to Freddy
German Shepherd Dog, 4 years old
My favourite thing about Freddy is...
He is smart, loyal and funny. He loves to walk and play, he enjoys the beach and forest. He is very cuddly and is currently sitting with me on the sofa. He has lots of friends.
The biggest challenge with Freddy is...
He is very willful and will challenge to be in charge. He had to go to socialisation and training classes as a puppy to ensure he is a friendly sociable dog.
The most surprising thing about owning a German Shepherd Dog is...
What scaredy cats they are, Freddy is frightened of the clothes airer!
What I wish I’d known about German Shepherd Dogs is...
GSDs need a lot of exercise and stimulation with play and games. A bored GSD will misbehave and be noisy and destructive. Crate training is also essential to ensure the dogs safety and your peace of mind when raising a puppy.
