Dog breed of the day.. e German Sheppard(Utility at the service of humanity)- First bred systematically after the founding of the first breed association in 1889, the German Shepherd was originally based on herding dog varieties from central and southern Germany. The goal was to produce a very good working dog, which is why physical abilities are given as much weight as character and temperament in the standard. German Shepherds are solidly built, medium sized dogs, slightly longer than they are tall, strong, muscular and lean.German Shepherds must be even tempered, well balanced and self assured, completely natural, totally innocuous (unless provoked), vigilant and docile. They must be courageous, sturdy of character and instinctively ready to fight. These qualities make them good companions, but also well suited as a guard and protector or a herding dog. This breed is wonderfully versatile. Did you know?? When the German Shepherd Dog trots calmly and regularly, its head is pushed forward and its tail is slightly raised, forming a supple harmonious upper line running uninterrupted from the ears over the neck and back to the tip of the tail.
