Exercise

• Because of their endurance, intellect, agility, and excitement, adult German Shepherds require at least two hours of daily exercise in addition to a lot of cerebral stimulation.
• Without enough mental and physical exercise, GSDs are more likely to release their pent-up energy through destructive or undesirable behaviours including chewing, chasing, pulling on the lead, and barking.

Training Advice

• The desire to please and sensitivity to your reactions are traits of German Shepherds. Therefore, it is advisable to concentrate on applauding excellent behaviour and ignore or reject "poor" behaviour before moving on.
• It is advisable to begin long-coat german shepherd puppy training when the dog is 8 weeks old. GSD puppies will quickly establish their own rules if they are not given structured training from an early age.
• Prioritising socialisation is crucial since the GSD breed can become defensive around strangers because of its loyal nature. Early exposure to new situations, people, and things is important for puppies.

Game ideas

• Play games that require you to look for, track, and retrieve objects.
• GSDs are typically quite good at and willing to participate in obedience training. They are also very owner-focused.
