Slide Notes

The reason I picked German Shepherds was because I want one. I have never owned a dog before and I want to try it out. If I were allowed to get a German Shepherd, it would be amazing. I think a German Shepherd would make a perfect pet.

Size and Color

Male German Shepherds stand about 25 inches tall from foot to shoulder and normally weigh between 60 to 85 pounds. Females are a couple inches shorter, and stand approximately 23 inches tall and weigh between 55 and 80 pounds.
Most German Shepherds are the classic brown and black as you see in this picture. They can also be all black or all brown, or a combination of black and red, or black and silver.
German Shepherds are very strong and muscular, and are very intelligent.

Police Work

German Shepherds are excellent police dogs. Police dogs are specially trained to assist police. These dogs are trained to be patrol dogs. Patrol dogs need to be big and strong and German Shepherds are exactly that. They are trained to chase and capture criminals.
Since German Shepherds are large, strong, and easy to train, they make great police dogs.
