Bunderberg gsd German Shepherd Dogs

The German shepherd Dog is medium sized. With the hair pressed down, the height at the withers is measured by stick along the vertical as it follows the line of the elbow from the withers to the ground. The ideal height at the withers is 62.5cm for males and 57.5cm for females. An allowance of 2.5cm over or under is permissible. Exceeding the maximum as well as not meeting the minimum diminishes the working and breeding value of the dog.

The German Shepherd Dog is slightly long, stretched, powerful and well muscled. The bones are dry and firmly developed. The ratio of height to length and placement and structure of the limbs (angulation) are so balanced that a far reaching, effortless gait is guaranteed. He has a weatherproof coat. A harmonious appearance is desired as long as the working ability of the dog is not called into question. Sex characteristics must be pronounced, as the masculinity of the males and the femininity of the females must be unmistakable.

The German Shepherd Dog who corresponds to the standard offers the observer a picture of rugged strength, intelligence and agility whose overall proportions are neither in excess nor substandard in any way.

The manner in which the dog moves and behaves must express that on a sound body lives a healthy mind, and, therefore, the fundamental characteristics are in evidence to enable the dog to be ready and able to prove the working dog characteristics under duress.

Only a trained expert will be able to determine whether the working dog characteristics of the German Shepherd Dog are in evidence. Therefore, only special judges should be commissioned, whose duty it must be to test the dog's temperament, including the gun indifference test. Only German Shepherd Dogs who are in possession of a training degree can be awarded the rating of excellent. (V)

Outgoing disposition must be in evidence and the dog must possess a willingness to perform and be accustomed to all situations. The dog should complete all assigned tasks willfully and in a friendly manner.

The dog must possess courage and hardness to be able to defend its master as well as the possessions of the family.

The dog must be able to demonstrate willing and outgoing combativeness upon demand of the handler, but also must be alert, obedient and a pleasing companion, pleasing in its environment, aloof to children as well as animals, and aloof during contact with strangers.

To sum it up -
a harmonious picture of natural nobility and of respectable self assurance.

If you love the breed, as I do, then you'll appreciate the care and dedication, and the "labor of love" that goes into selectively breeding and raising these magnificent animals. The journey is just as impotent as the destination.

I AM YOUR PUPPY

PLEASE READ, THANKS

I am your Puppy, and I will love you until the end of the Earth, but please know a few things about me. I am a Puppy, this means that my intelligence and capacity for learning are the same as an 8-month-old child. I am a Puppy; I will chew EVERYTHING I can get my teeth on. This is how I explore and learn about the world. Even HUMAN children put things in their mouths. It's up to you to guide me to what is mine to chew and what is not.

I am a Puppy; I cannot hold my bladder for longer than 1 - 2 hours. I cannot "feel" that I need to poop until it is actually beginning to come out. I cannot vocalize nor tell you that I need to go, and I cannot have "bladder and bowel control" until 6 - 9 months. Do not punish me if you have not let me out for 3 hours and I tinkle. It is your fault. As a Puppy, it is wise to remember that I NEED to go potty after: Eating, Sleeping, playing, Drinking and around every 2 - 3 hours in addition.

If you want me to sleep through the night, then do not give me water after 7 or 8 p.m. A crate will help me learn to housebreak easier, and will avoid you being mad at me. I am a Puppy, accidents WILL happen, please be patient with me! In time I will learn.

I am a Puppy, I like to play. I will run around, and chase imaginary monsters, and chase your feet and your toes and 'attack' you, and chase fuzzballs, other pets, and small kids. It is play; it's what I do. Do not be mad at me or expect me to be sedate, mellow and sleep all day.

If my high energy level is too much for you, maybe you could consider an older rescue from a shelter or Rescue group. My play is beneficial, use your wisdom to guide me in my play with appropriate toys, and activities like chasing a rolling ball, or gentle tug games, or plenty of chew toys for me. If I nip you too hard, talk to me in "dog talk", by giving a loud YELP, I will usually get the message, as this is how dogs communicate with one another. If I get too rough, simply ignore me for a few moments, or put me in my crate with an appropriate chew toy.

I am a Puppy; hopefully you would not yell, hit, strike, kick or beat a 6-month-old human infant, so please do not do the same to me. I am delicate, and also very impressionable. If you treat me harshly now, I will grow up learning to fear being hit, spanked, kicked or beat.

Instead, please guide me with encouragement and wisdom. For instance, if I am chewing something wrong, say, "No chew!" and hand me a toy I CAN chew. Better yet, pick up ANYTHING that you do not want me to get into. I can't tell the difference between your old sock and your new sock, or an old sneaker and your $200 Nikes.

I am a Puppy, and I am a creature with feelings and drives much like your own, but yet also very different. Although I am NOT a human in a dog suit, neither am I an unfeeling robot who can instantly obey your every whim. I truly DO want to please you, and be a part of your family, and your life. You got me (I hope) because you want a loving partner and companion, so do not relegate me to the backyard when I get bigger, do not judge me harshly but instead mold me with gentleness and guidelines and training into the kind of family member you want me to be.

I am a Puppy and I am not perfect, and I know you are not perfect either. I love you anyway. So please, learn all you can about training, and puppy behaviors and caring for me from your Veterinarian, books on dog care and even researching on the computer! Learn about my particular breed and it's "characteristics", it will give you understanding and insight into WHY I do all the things I do. Please teach me with love, patience, the right way to behave and socialize me with training in a puppy class or obedience class, we will BOTH have a lot of fun together.

I am a Puppy and I want more than anything to love you, to be with you, and to please you. Won't you please take time to understand how I work? We are the same you and I, in that we both feel hunger, pain, thirst, discomfort, fear, but yet we are also very different and must work to understand one another's language, body signals, wants and needs. Some day I will be a handsome dog, hopefully one you can be proud of and one that you will love as much as I love you.

Love,
Your Puppy. slurp slurp.
