The German Shepherd Dog is also known as the Alsatian. During the First World War there was so much anti German feeling that the breed were remained Alsatians. The name German Shepherd came back into use after the second world war.
It is a very good looking dog, well proportioned and very strong. The coat most often comes in black with tan, sable or all black, but also can come in cream/white.
Bred as working dogs, German Shepherds are intelligent and alert. They are bold, good natured, obedient andeager to learn and extremely loyal. They also have a tendency to be over protective and this can cause problems if the owner does not recognise this and take the pack leader stance thus controlling this tendency.
