Question about German Shepherds
For you dog owners or people whom have knowledge about this fine dog, I have a question.
If you raise a pup from a very young age, and give it good treatment, food, shelter, attention and playtime, would the dog ever bite you if you like attack you if you make a "domenitent form?" like if you make yourself seem like you are in charge ( which in most cases you are?)
Also, how much are German Shepherd and Golden Retriever pups from a relieble breeder.
EDIT: I also heard that Germans love taking care of children, say you are the parent of the child, would the German let you carry the baby without a bark or fight or would it know it is your child?

The person who ran my old daycare (there was kids aged like 2-13) had a German Shepard and it was the nicest dog, but it got old, and then she got another one and it was still great with everyone (but it didn't like other dogs because when it was a puppy it was attacked by a big dog).
They're great dogs and I would recommend them.

ONLY $1,000? also food and other stuff, but only 1k for the pup?
I know what I want for Christmas when I get older/have my own house.[/quote]
You may think it's cheap. Lol.
But after you get the puppy, you need to get the shots. Puppy from birth to around 7~8 months requires several shots & those shots alone already cost about $1000.
Then you have to bring the dog back every year for rabbi shots and such.
Not to mention grooming. German shepherd may be okay but Golden retriever requires a good grooming maintenance, that along already is $100 every month or two.

Of course the dog knows who the owner is LOL.
He will get alert and such when a stranger approaches the baby.
Can you answer my other question please?

I had three myself, and still have my third. My first one went to become a police dog. The second one went into a coma and died (which made me cry a lot ). My third one right now is my pet dog with me and my family. Overall, it's a good dog, very smart, and if treated right, they will be great members to you.
No, the dog will stay loyal. I think a golden retriever would be even better as it is more tolerant, or a pitbull.

They're normally $500~900.
Some private breeders sell them cheap, but it's bad to support them.[/quote]

My Grandpa has had two German sheperds, and they have never done anything bad. The one he currently has is a little hyper though, so you have to watch out if he's trying to jump up on you, but he's a good dog.
