Description
Tootsie is a 2 year old German Shepherd due to be 3 in July. I purchased her when she was almost 9 weeks old in September 2023 She is of Czech German origin with AKC registration. She is spayed and is updated on shots and microchipped. Unfortunately she does have behavioral issues and due to her type of German shepherd line, she possesses a very high drive. She also has severe tail spinning/compulsion that has been ineffective with prior treatments/consultantions with primary vet and behavioral specialists. I have never seen her attacking a cat in the sense of hurting but she will chase them regardless of how well known they are to her. I would not encourage her to someone who is not experienced with the breed especially of East German lines. She will do best in a fenced in backyard for exercise and she eats Royal Canin Adult German Shepherd. I would advise to be aware of her compulsive tail spinning. She is a very intelligent dog and very eager to please and loves

Overview:
The German Shepherd Dog, a truly iconic breed, originated in Germany in the late 19th century, primarily for herding sheep. They are easily recognizable by their athletic, medium-to-large build, typically weighing between 50-90 pounds, with a distinct double coat that can be black and tan, sable, or solid black. Known for their intelligence and loyalty, German Shepherds possess a remarkably trainable and courageous temperament, making them exceptional working dogs in fields like police and service work. While generally good with families when properly socialized, their high energy levels and need for mental stimulation make them unsuitable for apartment living without significant daily exercise. Prospective owners should be aware of common health concerns such as hip and elbow dysplasia, as well as degenerative myelopathy, underscoring the importance of responsible breeding and regular veterinary care.
