Care Tips for German guard dogs

1

Regular Exercise: Ensure your German guard dog receives daily exercise to maintain its physical health and mental stimulation. Activities like walking, jogging, or playing fetch can help expend energy and prevent boredom.

2

Consistent Training: Implement consistent obedience and socialization training from an early age to ensure your dog is well-behaved and responsive to commands. This is crucial for a guard dog to distinguish between normal and threatening situations.

3

Proper Nutrition and Healthcare: Provide a balanced diet tailored to your dog's age, weight, and activity level, and schedule regular veterinary check-ups to monitor its health and prevent potential issues.
