Présentation de l'éditeur

The German Shepherd Dog, well known from the movies Rin-Tin-Tin and Strongheart, is a multi purpose dog breed. He started his working career as a dog assisting the shepherds in herding and protecting sheep. During World War 1, the German Shepherd proved to be an excellent military dog as well. From that time onwards the breed became very popular. During World War 2 the tasks of the German Shepherd increased more and more. They worked as mine-detectors, as sentinels, they were used as guard dogs and messenger dogs. Today this intelligent dog is even trained to be a guide to the blind. Practical tips on training are based on the rules of the pack, as studied on the German Shepherd's ancient ancestor, the wolf. There is expert information on nutrition, plus a comprehensive section on health problems, including first aid. The book also contains a wealth of wonderful photographs which will delight German Shepherd owners new and old.
