German Shepherd Dog Breeders

The German Shepherd Dog was known as a German Shepherd Dog in the US. (the first one registered in the US was "Queen of Switzerland" in 1908) During WWI, the AKC renamed it the "Shepherd Dog" but, renamed it in 1933 back to "German Shepherd Dog". After World War I these dogs were named the Alsatian. Today they are known by the correct name of German Shepherd Dog. German Shepherds are powerful and well muscled with a slightly elongated form. The height at the shoulders is 21 ½" to 25 ½". These dogs are all around working, herding and service dogs. They are steady of nerve and completely good natured as well as alert. They need frequent grooming due to a double coat. They make great watch dogs and home companions. Contact the dog breeders below for your next family friend.
