some of the info in this book is untrue…Color of a Shepherd DOESN’T EFFECT A DOG’S BEHAVIOR, for Example Black Shepherds are calmer and white Shepherds are Hyper. Any Shepherd can be hyper, my Sable Shepherd was hyper up til he died 12-12-06 at 7 months old. So COLOR has NOTHING to do with a dog’s Temperament or Behavior

It is basically a picture book with captions and some information in small paragraphs. It explains all things in basic terms and pictures. It has helpful information about the breed in history and relatives and some basic training styles to common health problems. It is more of a quick reference book, like cliff notes for more detailed books on GSDs, than anything else. I would recommend for younger readers or people that really like the breed and want just a basic, picture filled book to introduce people to the breed. I would also recommend for someone shopping for a dog and has yet to chose the breed, it explains how to pick a puppy and what is needed for the German Shepherd through out its life and would be a good reference to compare different breeds.

this book is a great source of info not seen in any of the other Shepherd books. It is sort of small, but goes very in depth into specific Shepherd health problems, Shepherd traits, diet, and anything else. I liked the fact that it was Shepherd oriented the whole way throguh, unlike many other dog books. I highly reccomend this, even if you already have a GSD.

I have had this book for some time and have recently decided to revisit it. I am glad I did. Along with the incredibly good quality photos of the many different ‘models’ of GSD that are available (and so co-operative for the camera!),there is lots of sound advice on anything you could possibly need regarding your GS. It is a bit short on words, but this makes the information concise and easy to remember. I particularly liked the first aid advice, so this book could prove invaluable and is small enough to be portable, so the advice can be at hand should you need it… The book would be great for a new GSD owner (perhaps included by the breeder on purchase of the pup?), as well as the experienced, especially if you like pictures of nice, everyday, non show dogs!
