If not, they have obviously been bred for size. I have to wonder what kind of health problems they might have such as hip dysplasia and other joint problems.
Quoting: KrimmyShepherds are a truly awesome breed. Gentle as kittens with your children, vicious attackers with bad guys. And that is if you don't bother training them, and just socialize them nicely as puppies and treat them as a family member. A trained shepherd is a force to be reckoned with. The hip dysplasia is a bummer. My first shepherd had it bad by eight years old, and she lived to be 13. We used chondritin and glucosamine, which seemed to help, and aspirin when it got really bad. Our second shepherd, who is now ten, comes from a bloodline of dogs selected for good hips and she is doing fabulously well. If you get a shepherd (and you should) pay the extra money or whatever it takes to get one with a documented bloodline of sound hips. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1280680 yep often the german bloodlines are taller and have a straight back I had one she weighed 110 lbs they are so freakin smart its insane and not agressive but will INDEED go after any and all morons who are dumb enough to come on your property Quoting: Anonymous Coward 2371475 I know when I looked into them, the dogs were all hip tested and other stuff too. I don't like the German bloodlines, the ones I've seen were too hyper and small, way smaller than the Pioneer dog I saw. I have a Rott now but would like a shepard too.
