German Shepherds belong to a breed that is famous all world wide due to their high cleverness and loyalty. Combined with an agile body and a quick mind, this faithfulness is valuable in the military and police. When it comes to exercise, a German Shepherd is very alert. These canines are the canine equivalent of military personnel when it comes to being reliable in training. They also make good pets and guide canines for the visually impaired due to their strong mental skills and great sense of duty, even if in the recent years Labradors and Golden Retrievers are more commonly utilised for this reason.
