Below is a collection of other sites that I have enjoyed.
I have posted links to useful sites on this page, please take the time to read them before deciding you want a GSD and if you will have the time and patience
to train it properly. Dogs are a lifetime committment and need lots of love, care, attention and training.
These links are also provided to give you information across a broad spectrum of topics. I hope you enjoy them and find them useful.
