We can proudly boast that all of our dogs and puppies come from only the very best and proven bloodlines in the world. Each one of our males and females is health tested, titled, and has at least one parent that has earned a VA1 title Excellent Select, 1st place. The competition for VA is fierce and very few dogs attain this momentous achievement. Our Dogs Titles: So, what does all of this mean and why should it matter to a pet buyer? Working titles focus on the structural soundness and ability to demonstrate trainability and reliability in obedience, but more importantly, temperament is evaluated. Show titles provide a valuable tool for ensuring that the breed standard is followed. This is an in-depth evaluation that records the qualities and shortcomings of the dog. The temperament, conformation, courage, and function are reported. Temperament and character, along with physical and mental soundness play an enormous role in selectively choosing which dogs are breeding prospects. The German Shepherd is an athletic, loyal, self-assured, attentive, and intelligent dog. This applies to both competition dogs and family pets. Purchasing a puppy from titled parents ensures that the dogs being bred have passed vigorous testing and several judges along the way oversaw the process. Following this standard eliminates a biased breeder from breeding indiscriminately and encourages the goal to be producing the best puppies possible. At Centennial German Shepherds, meticulous planning and an abundance of thought go into producing every litter of puppies. Striving for excellence gives breeders credibility and provides the potential buyer with absolute assurance that their puppy is a product of deliberate and quality mating. Capo and our beautiful granddaughter, Shannon The meaning of Our New Kennel Name After working, showing, and breeding German Shepherds for over 25 years, we decided it was time to create a new kennel name and logo to signify our presence in Colorado the Centennial State combined with our Italian and Estonian foundation dogs. Centennial GSD chose to use the head of our gorgeous female Gucci and combine the American and Italian flags across her face to signify our team concept. Additionally, we blended the American and Estonian flags across our impressive male import's face to represent the Margman presence at Centennial. Our puppies are raised inside of our home where we can interact with them from birth until the day they leave with their new families. We assess them, take notes, photos, and videos, and create a detailed log about each puppy so that we can explain their individual characteristics and personalities as clearly as possible to anyone who is inquiring. We evaluate each puppy's growth and development, along with littermate interactions and responses to "daily life" situations on a full-time basis. Once the puppies are mobile, they are introduced to toys and small obstacles which are intended to spark curiosity and promote problem-solving and confidence. We understand that visiting the puppies or looking at photos is difficult, as both are only small snapshots of time in the rapidly changing life of a growing puppy. Visitors might experience the litter just before or after a nap, eating, playing, or any other event or activity that may skew the true personality of the puppy, and relying on a few minutes or even hours to make a decision can be overwhelming. For these reasons, frequent communication with prospective families from birth to placement is crucial. By clearly conveying expectations, we are able to assist in the selection process to ensure happiness and success for both the puppy and the individual families welcoming the youngster into their new home. Centennial GSD works hard at producing the finest German Shepherd Dogs through methodically and meticulously scrutinizing compatible bloodlines and pedigrees to ensure each breeding results in producing the best litter of puppies possible. Combining specific lines or avoiding lines that have genetic faults is important as we always have the betterment of the breed in mind. This is done by carefully choosing a mating pair that compliment one another by enhancing positive qualities and making an effort to reduce any faults known in one or both bloodlines. Our foundation dogs and the dogs we use for breeding trace back to the best Italian, Estonian, and German bloodlines. We seek out dogs with a geographically diverse gene pool while also studying line breeding to keep the integrity of the breed intact. By doing this, we reduce the risks associated with more closely related dogs. Our breeding dogs have certified hips and elbows, have been tested for DM, and are titled; ensuring that they are healthy both physically and mentally. None of the dogs in our breeding program and many generations back have joint or known hereditary issues and all of the dogs possess stable and wonderful temperaments. At Centennial quality over quantity always comes first.

We take pride in our Colorado German Shepherds. Our goal is to produce healthy and beautiful German Shepherd puppies that win in the show ring, excel as working dogs, succeed as therapy or service dogs, and most importantly, flourish as loving family companions and guardians. I traveled to Estonia to pick up my female puppy Briatore Nordica, and while I was there I met another puppy her half-brother named Margman Othello. He was a gorgeous and friendly 7 month old sable youngster. Both puppies shared the same father, the magnificent multiple VA Margman Torsten. I was immediately smitten and consequently brought both back with me to Colorado. I also had the honor and pleasure of hosting Torsten, his owner, and his breeder at my home when they traveled to the United States for the first time after a Sieger Show. A few years later I imported another Margman female black and red who was bred to Torsten. Her puppies were wonderful and she enjoyed a nice life in Colorado. By this time Margman had become a household name and known for quality German Shepherds around the world. We had lovely puppies; a mix of sable and black and red, both long and short coats. It was then that I began my great love for the long haired German Shepherd. Rio was phenomenal in the show ring, he earned his SchH3 title, placed V1, and produced puppies that achieved the same and other working titles. He was a gentleman in the house and had a flawless character which he passed down to his puppies time and time again. His puppies excelled as therapy dogs, service dogs, and as healthy and loving family dogs. Rio was intelligent, possessed a solid temperament, and was stunning to look at. My beloved Rio was by far one of the best dogs I have ever had the privilege of owning and set the bar high for our future dogs. Now, many years later, I have once again imported a Margman dog; an impressive male to show, breed, and enjoy as a perfect companion dog. We look forward to combining the lines again and producing the best puppies possible. Expanding the gene pool while still staying true to the standard is our goal with future litters. Margman Dacapo is magnificent; an absolute dream dog. In we imported our first Margman long coat, a deeply pigmented black and red girl. Margit has bettered the breed by thinking outside of the box. Her sable and black dogs are the absolute best and she has also produced top long coats along with her phenomenal black and red dogs. She has combined strong females with the correct stud dogs to produce some of the best puppies in the world. She is devoted to her dogs and the future of the German Shepherd Dog. Her dedication is obvious, and the result has been and remains to be dogs that possess beauty, working ability, and outstanding character. Her vision is clear, her dedication is steadfast, and he loves the dogs so her goals are always set with the future in mind. Website: Vom Dortmunder German Shepherds 5.

Please be aware that there are pet stores and websites advertising each breed of dog claiming to be a 'breeder directory' but they are actually puppymills. Just because a website has a lot of pictures does not mean that those pictures were not stolen from other breeders!! Puppymills are massive breeding facilities that only view dogs as commodities. Breeding dogs are housed in shockingly poor conditions and bred until they can no longer produce, with very little human contact and suffer from neglect, poor health, parasitic infestations, and horrific wounds because they are forced to live on their feces confined to small filthy cages. So many people own dogs that have come from puppymills and dont even realize it. Unfortunately puppymills are thriving on the internet because buyers are not aware that such cruelty exists. Making such a purchase does not "rescue" the puppy- it in fact condemns puppymill dogs to a life of torture. It is estimated that there are over 4 million dogs being bred in puppymills every single year! And this number is growing.The current laws are insufficient in protecting dogs and puppies from neglect and exploitation. We have been awarded.

Life Span Did You Know? The Boxer is one of the most popular dog breeds in the United States. It has been recognized by the AKC since .Although the Boxer dog breed originated in Germany, their ancient ancestry can be traced back to the Assyrian empire war dogs of BC. The modern Boxer breed we know and love today was originally developed in Germany in the late s. English-bred Bulldogs and the Bullenbesiier were crossed to create an energetic and agile hunting dog to chase wild game. The Boxer is a popular family companion and a versatile working dog. As a member of the Working Group, Boxers can be found competing in dog sports like agility, obedience, and herding. They also make great service and assistance dogs, as well as therapy dogs, and can be found working as search and rescue dogs, drug detection dogs, police dogs, and military dogs. The Boxer is a muscular and energetic dog that tends to have a happy, friendly disposition. They bond closely with their families and tend to get along well with children and other dogs. They can even do well with other pets despite their high prey drive if they are socialized and trained with them. As long as they are well-socialized, Boxers are generally upbeat, playful, and friendly. Although they have a natural instinct to protect their family from unwanted visitors, they do tend to warm up once introduced and are happy to make a new friend. They can be prone to barking a lot if you do not work on socialization and training your dog to stop barking early on. Boxers can be highly adaptable dogs. Although they have a lot of energy and are better suited to homes with yards where they can run, they can adapt to apartment living as long as they get the daily exercise, attention, and mental stimulation they need. As with any non-arctic dog breed, they are sensitive to very cold temperatures. Boxers are also a brachycephalic breed, which means they are even more sensitive to heat than other dogs. A Boxer is also one of the most affectionate dog breeds. Because they bond so closely with their families and get bored easily, they should not be left alone for long periods of time. Potential health conditions to be aware of in a Boxer include hip dysplasia, degenerative myelopathy, thyroid issues , and heart conditions like aortic stenosis and cardiomyopathy. Good breeding practices make a big difference and reputable breeders will screen their dogs to avoid passing preventable issues to puppies. So, make sure you are asking the breeder about the health and genetic history of the parents and about any health tests that have been done. Boxers are intelligent dogs that are eager to please their owners. Despite their energetic personality, they are one of the best dog breeds for first-time owners and are highly trainable dogs. They tend to excel at almost any task put before them! Because of their open, friendly nature and high energy, they have a tendency to jump up at people in excitement and playfulness. Since they grow into powerful dogs, you will want to make sure you train your dog not to jump up. Boxers have smooth and short coats that will shed a little year-round and require minimal grooming. A brush-down once or twice a week and the occasional bath as needed will keep their short coat healthy and looking great. Nail trims once or twice a month are usually enough to keep nails from growing too long. Checking ears weekly and carefully cleaning as needed can help prevent ear infections. Checking and wiping their facial wrinkles weekly or a few times a week if your dog is prone to getting into things can help keep their wrinkles clean and free of irritation. Dental diseases, like gum disease, are the most common health issues in older dogs because dental care is often overlooked; and, it can lead to other serious health issues. Brushing daily, plus cleanings at the vet when needed, is ideal. The Boxer is a high-energy dog breed that needs plenty of daily exercise to stay happy and healthy. Due to their high prey drive and urge to chase, they should only be let off-leash in secure areas. Boxers tend to get bored with repetition, are excellent problem solvers, and are naturally exuberant. A fully-grown Boxer usually stands inches tall at the shoulder and weighs pounds. Boxers generally live years on average. In Germany, the Boxer was one of the first dog breeds chosen for police training. Featured Boxer Article. Questions about Boxer puppies for sale in New York?

I started thinking about how nice it would be to have a German Shepherd Dog like when I was young. I remember how pretty they were so I told Jeffrey, "I want a German shepherd". He immediately went on the hunt. He loves that stuff. When Jeff started showing me the dogs he was finding I couldn't believe what I was seeing. It is so hard to find a old fashion discerning yet calm, straight back shepherd these days. We found out the show dog people, changed the appearance of the Shepherd. It all looks legit so we bought a couple. I didn't care how much money or time I had in them or how great their paperwork said they were I had enough. I couldn't take it anymore. It was not what I wanted. Next Shepherd dog we found was the working line. We got a beautiful pup we called Titus. When we went look at him as a pup I mean he shined. He was like his owners shadow. He never got tripped on and moved like the wind. I knew that this dog had a high prey drive but I didn't know he didn't have an off button. We loved him but at a year old we placed with a man who lived on an 80 acre farm. Lord Jesus, what happened to the big beautiful straight back family farm German Shepherd Dog? I mean who would have thought? How hard could it be? But nowadays, what we were wanting was the minority. Most shepherds now either have the curved back that they swear is healthier, tested and winning everything. That is how they separate them now. They need a job, a serious job. They to hyper and to prey driven for what I wanted. Thanks to The Good Lord Jeff had ask me several times if I would be interested in the white shepherd. I said, "That is exactly what I want. We bought off different litters. These dogs are mentally smart. They are like a human with fur. They will understand your language and they learn everything very very fast. You should just be able to tell them once or twice and they get it. They potty train very fast! They are clean dogs. Most GSD tend to be wary of strangers or aloof, but not ours. Their drive to retrieve things makes them a companion for entertainment. They love kids. Who better to trust watching over the kiddos than the trusted loyal White Shepherd. I know my own and my own know me. According to an article in USA Today, 1, sheep fell off a cliff to their deaths in Turkey in .One sheep fell, so the others followed suit and jumped. In the end, sheep died. The ones that survived only lived because they were cushioned by landing on top of their fellow herd members. As a child growing up in church, I remember seeing a picture of Jesus with a lamb wrapped around his neck. As I grew older and visited more churches, I remember seeing similar pictures at a lot of places. I never questioned the image. The Bible is clear that God is our shepherd, and we are the sheep of his pasture, so I assumed the image demonstrated that biblical truth. However, several years ago while I was attending seminary, the image of the lamb wrapped around the neck of Jesus was explained to me. Because sheep tend to stray and will also follow wherever they are led, shepherds often had to discipline lambs that would stray from their shepherd. The shepherd would use his rod to break the leg of a wandering lamb. After binding the break, the shepherd would carry the lamb on his shoulders while the wound healed. If the lamb struggled and fought, it would quickly realize that the broken leg wouldn't allow it to flee. The lamb learned during the healing process that the shepherd could be trusted. The lamb needed the shepherd to provide food, transportation and protection. Once the wound was completely healed, the lamb was fiercely loyal to the shepherd and wouldn't stray from the shepherd's leading. A few years ago a news story broke about Shrek the sheep. Shrek was a Merino sheep who lived in New Zealand. Shrek became famous because he managed to avoid being captured and shorn for six years. His wool continued to grow and thicken, and his eyes were eventually hidden behind the thick coat. Shrek dodged the sheering by hiding in caves and running from his master. Once Shrek was finally captured and shorn, he carried 60 pounds of wool on his body, nearly six times the average amount. The wool on Shrek's body was enough to produce 20 men's dress suits. It's easy to see why the Bible compares us to sheep. We often follow the crowd, even when it leads to our own demise. We stray from the shepherd who loves us and seeks to protect us. We don't appreciate when God disciplines us. But if we surrender to him we learn through the discipline that God can be trusted. We are often like Shrek the sheep as well. We hide from God, clinging to the things that need to be shorn from us. We become weighed down with the burdens God could easily remove from us. The Bible also shares with us that God anointed his people with oil just as the shepherds anointed the heads of their sheep with oil. This wasn't just a symbolic ritual. Sheep are easy targets for flies, lice and ticks. A sheep that was not covered in oil on his head could easily become the victim of infestations of these pests. However, it wasn't just a nuisance. Bugs would crawl through the ear canal of the unoiled sheep and nest in its brain, eating away at it. The pain from the bugs would be so severe on the sheep that the sheep would bang his skull on rocks and against trees to ease his suffering. The sheep could break his own skull seeking relief from the brain-eating parasites. When God offers to anoint us with his oil, it means he offers us protection from the parasites of this world that seek to eat away at us. If we hide in caves, or jump off the proverbial cliffs of this world, dodging his anointing and protection, we may become victims of this world. We may become so filled with pain that we hit our heads against rocks to ease our suffering. God seeks to shepherd us through this life. Oftentimes that is through discipline, sheering or anointing. But it is always with love, and it is always with our best interest at heart. He is our shepherd. He can be trusted when we surrender to his leading.

Toy poodles double down on the froofroo rep with their tiny size and by sometimes sporting those fancy haircuts. But trust us, poodles are more than happy to get down and dirty. In fact, poodles started life as hunting dogs for the rich and famous in Europe. What made them so popular, however, is their incredible intelligence. Generally regarded as one of the smartest dog breeds , poodles are highly trainable, extremely eager to please people, and love being the center of attention through tricks and activities. None of that has changed over the years: The poodle consistently ranks as one of the 10 most popular breeds in the world. Appearance Toy, miniature , and standard poodles are all the same breed of dog, so they'll look more or less the same—except for their size. Toy poodles are the smallest of the three, standing no more than 10 inches tall and generally weighing right around 5 pounds. All three classifications of poodle have squarish bodies, generally about as long as they are tall. Poodles have a proud bearing, with heads kept high and their large, dark-colored eyes looking alert. Poodle coats come in a stunning array of colors from black, through the browns and yellow colors all the way to white. Bi-colored coats are also seen, though not hugely common. Poodles don't shed much , making them great for owners with allergies. While there aren't technically any hypoallergenic dogs , most people will find toy poodles close enough to not really quibble over it. Additionally, groomers can style a poodle's fur many different ways, and the breed has become famous for its outlandish show cuts. They tend to consider themselves a vital part of the family, have strong personalities, and learn things in a flash. They will get legitimately disgruntled if they think they're being left out of family activities. Of course, this temperament is kind of a double-edged sword. Toy poodles are devoted family pets who love to be the center of attention, learn tricks, and take walks. They're excellent in agility and obedience training and will play with children for hours. Because of their extreme intelligence, poodles are even quick to learn how to engage in more complex games such as hide and seek. On the flip side, poodles can develop common stress behaviors associated with separation anxiety. If you leave them alone for too long or don't give them the attention they deserve, these pups can be passive aggressive and do things they know you don't like—while you're there to watch. The toy poodle's teensy-tiny size makes it tempting to carry him everywhere, and he's so cute that it's no surprise owners are tempted to spoil him rotten. But, again, poodles are brilliant. A toy poodle who is carried everywhere will start to expect to be carried everywhere. As a result, every poodle owner should take full advantage of the breed's brilliance and eagerness to please, and obedience train their pet as quickly as possible. Living Needs Here is where the toy poodle's aptitude as an ideal family pet really shines. While poodles can be active dogs and will require some kind of daily exercise, toy poodles can get all their needs taken care of right there on the living room floor. Nichols says these little dogs will be happy with whatever type and amount of exercise their owner provides. Their tiny size makes them marvelous apartment-dwellers , and their innate desire to be lapdogs makes them great for seniors and people with mobility issues. Poodles of all sizes make great therapy dogs , and toy poodles in particular will love sitting near you for hours at a time. Toy poodles do great in households with other dogs, and the breed's lower prey drive , high intelligence, and friendly attitude make them ideal for houses with cats as well. Poodles love children and are eager to play, but most vets and breeders will steer households with children under the age of 10 toward the miniature or standard varieties, simply because the toy poodles are so small. They can be easily hurt by a falling child or by being handled too roughly. Always supervise children when they play with any dog and teach them how to properly interact with pets. Care No breed is perfect, and for poodles the biggest setback is going to be their grooming needs. That coat that is so shed-free and allergy-friendly? It's going to need brushing. A lot of brushing —ideally, every day. Because his hair curls in on itself, it's extremely prone to matting and, if left unchecked, can cause skin infections and have to be shaved off entirely. Aside from the brushing, poodles will need a bath and haircut every four to six weeks. While show dogs have a variety of complicated cuts to choose from, most non-show owners opt for a more standard sporting cut because of its ease to maintain. Like all dogs, you'll need to trim his nails regularly. Special attention should be paid to the ears , as their hair will grow up inside the ear canal, trapping wax and dirt and leading to infections. Because toy varieties have the same number of teeth as other poodle varieties but their mouths are smaller, it's easy for food to get trapped and decay to occur rapidly. Health Though the three varieties of poodles are the same breed, they do not suffer from the same conditions. While the standard poodle will be more prone to bloat , toy poodles can be slightly more susceptible to blood clotting disorders including Von Willebrand's disease and hemophilia , Beck says. Finally, smaller dogs can have a higher propensity for dental problems. In addition to being at greater risk for tooth decay , they don't lose their puppy teeth as easily as bigger dogs, Beck says. Reputable toy poodle breeders will conduct all health tests recommended by the Canine Health Information Center. History The poodle is the national dog of France, which is why you'll hear many people refer to the standard poodle as the "French poodle.

However, your dog waking up early could simply mean they miss you or indicate physical or psychological stressors. In fact, you can see many videos like these of dogs waking their owners up far too early: Your dog has multiple reasons for not allowing you to sleep in, which include the following: 1. They Need to Pee Sometimes your dog wakes you up early because nature calls. While most dogs can comfortably stay the night without having to pee , sometimes, their bladders get too full to spend the night. You can tackle this problem by giving a bathroom break before bed and withholding food and water for two hours. You will also need to address the issue of making sure your puppy is crated at night. Dogs with this type of anxiety display destructive behavior and bark a lot when left alone. This is especially true if they sleep in another room. Your Dog is Bored Sometimes, your dog is done sleeping and out of things to do, so they come to their ultimate source of entertainment—you. Understimulated dogs without enough physical and mental exercise are bound to get naughty. Also be sure your dog is not locked in a crate too long. The Dog is Sick and in Pain Some cases of waking up at night stem from health issues causing pain and discomfort. Any medical issue can cause sleeplessness, but we cover a few: UTIs— A common cause of early rising since it causes increased frequency of urination with a burning sensation. Injury—The pain from an injury can keep your dog awake. Dementia— Canine Cognitive dysfunction or CCD can affect sleeping cycles in dogs with the condition Joint pain or other bodily pains 5. Stress Your dog may be in a new environment, causing them to lose sleep because of all the stress. Imagine how hard it is to get some sleep before a big day because stress affects your dog the same way. Digestive Problems Your dog may be sleepless because something they ate is giving them an upset stomach. As unfussy eaters, dogs find themselves ingesting unexplainable objects. A new diet can also affect your dog if introduced too fast. Many dogs are naturally early risers and they are creatures of habit. So if they are used to getting up at a certain time and waking you up to go outside or go for a walk they are going to do it regardless if it is the weekend and you were hoping to sleep in. If the best part of the day happens first thing, excitement will get them up before the rooster crows and bouncing on your bed no matter what. How Long Does a Dog Sleep? Dogs love their naps, and adults spend a whopping 12 to 14 hours sleeping. Puppies spend even more time asleep because all that growing requires a solid 18 to 20 hours of sleep. Senior dogs also sleep more than 12 hours because they tire out easily. No one knows for certain why dogs need all that sleep and not less, say, 4 to 5 hours. However, seeing as our dogs barely have a busy schedule and have food on the table, they have nothing better to do. Your dog barks in the morning to wake you up to an unmet physical need like hunger or peeing. Or is it incessant and more of whining? The latter suggests that your dog wants a need met, while loud barking shows alertness and barking at something in the surroundings. As puppies grow and their bladders mature, there are fewer incidences of waking at night to pee. Puppies can hold it longer at night than during the day because they drink less water and are less active. Most puppies can sleep through the night without potty breaks by 4 to 5 months. Additionally, crate training is essential for speedy potty training in pups and fewer incidences of your dog waking up too early. These seven tips for dogs that wake up too early may one day save your sleep. Take Your Dog for a Potty Break After withholding food and water for two hours before their bedtime, take your dog out to empty their bowels for an accident-free night. Try to do this as late as possible in hopes that they will stay asleep a bit longer in the morning. Daily Walks and Mental Exercise A tired dog is a behaved one. Tiring your dog out during the day with walks and exercises increases their chances of sleeping longer. Crate-train Your Dog Adult dogs can stay in a crate for 4 to 6 hours, and puppies below six months for 3 to 4 during the day. Dogs above 4 months can stay the whole night in a crate , with proper training with treats and positive reinforcement. Reduce Bedroom Stimuli Distractions like blue light, tv sounds, and early sunlight can all wake your dog up. Feed a Proper Diet A hungry dog will wake you at night when the hunger gets the better of them. Allergies can also cause sleep interruptions, so consult your vet in case diet is the issue. Routine and Doing exciting things later in the day Your dog is more likely to wake up consistently if they sleep at the same time every night. Additionally, aim to take your dog for a long walk at around the same time every evening. If your dog is waking up early because they get fed in the morning, then move their feeding time to later in the day. Likewise, more other activities to the evening or afternoon. Install a doggy door If possible, allow your dog the option to leave the house and go outside on their own. A dog that can leave via the doggy door to potty has less reason to wake you up. Other times, continuous sleeplessness indicates separation anxiety, health issues causing pain like joint pain or STIs, and boredom. Walking your dog, crate training, watching out for diseases, and taking them outside before sleep minimizes incidences of early waking in dogs.

Your dog might be experiencing diarrhea, constipation, or vomiting. Another medical condition that can be bothering your dog is a urinary tract infection or UTI. UTIs are one of the most common infections in dogs. Urinary tract infections in dogs can be easily treated. But if not diagnosed on time and go untreated, the infection can spread to the dog's vital organs. A few symptoms of UTIs are excessive thirst, bloody urine, foul-smelling urine, lack of appetite, uncontrollable bladder, fever, and more. Living with a dog with separation anxiety can be challenging. If you're not lucky enough to be working remotely and you come home from work to a mess or destruction, this could be a sign that your dog is experiencing separation anxiety. Other symptoms include excessive drooling, panting, and excessive barking. If you're still unsure, you can always talk to your vet or consult a dog behavior expert. This daytime anxiety can carry over to the nighttime and into the morning. If your dog is not sleeping with you in the same room it can trigger their anxiety which can keep them awake. It can also cause them to wake up early because they are anxious to be with you. This might be a simple problem but it is greatly affecting you and your dog. Problems in their sleeping environment can be because the room is too bright. It can also be because YOU are too loud or noisy. For instance, you have a habit of falling asleep while the T. It can also be because they have no safe or proper space for them to sleep in. Age When comes to aging, it is connected to the medical condition factors. Senior dogs are more prone to joint pains leading to discomfort from sleeping. Monitor your senior dogs not only at night as these discomforts can also be seen during the daytime. Your best bet is to consult with your vet to ensure their safety and comfort. Excess Energy If your dog is not getting the required exercise it can fall into the excess energy category. Luckily for you, there are a lot of daily activities that can be the exercise that they need. If your dog doesn't get enough exercise it will tend to be more energetic than usual. This can result in our main problem that they will eventually wake up early. As the pet owner, you have the responsibility to know the required amount of exercise for their breed and age. Yup, you read that right, when it comes to dog exercise, it differs from their breed and their age. For instance, you should not plan out an adult exercise for a puppy and you should not exercise a small-sized dog on a large-sized dog exercise. Not only will your dog gets their exercise, but you too will be able to stay fit and healthy. As we've discussed above, getting the required amount of exercise can help dogs that are waking up too early due to their excess energy. Just running with your dog can help a lot! You can also walk them at night to tire them out. A second walk at night can burn reserve energies. It can increase the chances of them sleeping like a baby like the baby they are. Exercise can also create a powerful bond, make both of you healthy, and help with having a goodnight's sleep. Feed Your Dog Later Your dog can also wake you up early because their tummy is telling them it's time to eat. It's hard for them to ignore the feeling of hunger and just go back to sleep. You can avoid this by setting their dinner time at a much later time. You can also give him a treat or snack before going to bed. Changing the feeding pattern can help reduce the dog's hunger in the morning so that they'll be less eager to wake you up to get some early morning breakfast. Nobody, even humans don't sleep well on an empty stomach. Especially dogs, struggle to ignore the feeling of hunger. So if your dog tends to wake up too early, you might need to consider re-evaluating their diet. Reassess by asking these questions: Is the service size suitable for your dog? How many times do you feed him? When do you feed him? Take a Later Walk to Go Potty If ever your dog is waking you up too early because they need to relieve themselves, we recommend that you take your dog for a last-minute bathroom break before going to bed. However, as your dog ages, its bladder control will change. If you have a senior dog, understand that they can no longer make it all night without a bathroom break. Crate Training Dog crates are a great tool to help your pup feel safe and secure when they sleep at night. Also, a crate can be their safe and personal space. With crate training, they'll know where to go when they feel overwhelmed. Remember that dog crates should not be used as a punishment. Make sure that you've chosen a crate that fits them well. After that, place blankets over the top and inside to make it extra comfy. The right time for a dog to wake up will depend on your schedule and your sleeping habits. When you wake too up early, your dog wakes up too early as well. There's no specific time required for a dog to wake up. But since dogs are primal animals at their core, they depend on the cycles of nature for their schedule. Meaning they often wake up when the sun rises. But a good rule is that your dog should wake up when you wake up. When you often wake up at 7 AM, your dog will learn this schedule and wake up at 7 AM too. Keep in mind that adult dogs sleep for 12 to 14 hours. If you notice that your dog keeps waking up too early and is not getting the required hours of sleep, it would be best to ask your vet for advice. Lack of sleep can affect a dog's psychological and physical health. There are natural ways to make dogs sleep and you can also use certain medications. In natural ways, you can change their routine or exercise. You can also try calming music. New studies suggest that certain types of music have been proven to be effective for calming dogs. Before you sort to medication, it is best advised to consult with your vet first. Frequently Asked Questions How long do dogs sleep each day? As we discussed above, adult dogs sleep about hours a day. Loafing is where they're awake but they are not doing anything much. They're just lying there, chilling, and relaxing. What are the best times to feed a puppy? Three measured meals per day are important for a puppy. It is recommended that it should be at the same time every day. The best time for your puppy's first meal or breakfast is around 7 AM. Then, their lunchtime is your usual lunchtime around noon. Their last meal should be around 5 to 6 PM so that they will have time to digest their food and eliminate one last time before going to bed. Stick to this schedule until your pup becomes 14 to 18 weeks old. At this point, their schedule should change to just two meals a day. How much exercise does a puppy need? When it comes to a puppy's exercise needs, a good rule of thumb is five minutes of exercise per month for their age which could be twice a day. For instance, if a puppy is 4 months old, you can exercise them for 20 minutes a day. This minute exercise can be done twice a day. Use this method until they are fully grown where they'll be able to exercise for a much longer period. But always remember that age is not just a factor to consider when it comes to exercising. The age might be the biggest factor, but you should still consider their breed and any medical condition if needed. How much exercise does an adult dog need? Adult dogs can have a larger variety of exercise compared to puppies and senior dogs. With this, you can mix other daily activities or even sports to have fun with your dog. Again, an important factor to determine how much exercise a dog needs is its breed. Less active breeds are recommended to get 30 to 60 minutes of exercise per day. Flat-faced breeds like pugs and bulldogs have a lower exercise tolerance because of their breathing conditions. Even 10 minutes in the sun are too much for them to handle. Toy or small breeds should not be exercised as much as large and giant breeds. But you should still be careful because giant breeds are prone to joint and hip problems. High energy breeds like sporting, herding, or working breeds need a strong physical and mental exercise that should be 60 to 90 minutes per day. What can I do to stop this? There can be plenty of reasons why your puppy wakes up too early. A few examples of these are medical conditions. Your pup might be waking up too early due to discomfort or pain. Your dog might be waking up due to UTI, digestive problems, or joint pain if you have a senior dog. Monitor your pet and consult with your vet if you ever see signs of the medical issues above. On the other hand, your dog might also be suffering from a psychological issue like separation anxiety. Or it can be some simple reasons like their sleeping environment. They might be feeling uncomfy in their bed or surroundings. Another factor that you should look into is if they have excess energy. And a quick solution to this is having the time to exercise your dog. With my kids I waited for 20 minutes before I got them up, and checked on their diapers or food needs.

What do we mean by that? If your dog sleeps in your bedroom, hang the curtains in there and draw them closed at night. The curtains will block out the amount of sunlight that enters the room the next morning which will help your dog to sleep longer. When you wake up, open the curtains to let the sunlight in, and your dog will know that it is time to wake up. If your dog sleeps in a crate, you can also drape a blanket over the crate to achieve the same effect. Then, just remove the blanket in the morning. You should also make sure that your dog has a warm and comfortable place to sleep and remove all toys and food from the room where your dog sleeps. Take Your Dog Out Right Before Bed Even if you just took your dog outside 30 minutes ago, take him outside to use the bathroom one more time and then go straight to bed. And following the suggestion above, remove any food or water from his sleeping area before bed as well. Image Credit: Audrius Vizbaras, Pixabay 4. Make Sure Your Dog Gets Plenty of Exercise If your dog is consistently waking you up early, or even just wakes you up earlier than usual the next morning, he may not be getting enough exercise. Different sizes, ages, and breeds of dogs require different amounts and levels of exercise. Try playing with or exercising your dog closer to bedtime if he has a habit of waking you up. That should tire him out and encourage him to sleep longer the next morning. Put Your Dog on a Schedule Yes, it is true that dogs can operate on their own schedule and by their own internal clock. But just like humans, dogs benefit by being put on a schedule. You can actually alter their internal clock by sticking to the same schedule with your dog every day. You can schedule their feedings, playtimes, and bedtime this way. To keep a certain schedule, you should try to feed your dog at the same time each day. That way, your dog will get a nap in the middle of the day, which will give him plenty of time to tire out again before bed. Lastly, try to go to bed and wake up at the same time every day. Remember that consistency is key, so following a specific bedtime routine, combined with some of the suggestions above, can all help your dog sleep longer instead of waking you up early. The amount of sleep a dog needs really just depends on his age. Most adult dogs sleep between hours per day, while puppies sleep more. That amount of sleep is divided up between naps throughout the day and bedtime. The amount of sleep a dog gets at any particular time mostly corresponds to when they need to use the bathroom, but hunger and the amount of exercise they receive can also affect this.

November 4, Why do puppies wake so early in the morning? Puppies often wake early in the morning because they need something, or something has disturbed them. They might also have learned a habit of expecting food very early in the day. Luckily there are lots of ways puppy owners can lay the groundwork for more civilized morning starts in the future! That sleep is vital for supporting learning, memory formation and even the formation of their immune system. And such short-lived, broken night time sleep can really take its toll on new puppy parents. Puppy owners report that tiredness caused night time disturbances and early mornings has a negative effect on their physical and mental health, puts strain on family relationships, and sours their general mood. There are a few reasons, and luckily, most of them are linked to their stage of life. Which is to say, your puppy will grow out of them in time! In fact this is true of most baby animals, including humans. Luckily, puppies pick it up quicker than human babies. They need to pee This is probably the most overwhelmingly common reason for puppies needing to get up in the morning. Their bladder capacity is small, and it needs emptying regularly. As there bladder capacity matures, their need for an early morning toilet excursion diminishes. Anything which is unfamiliar to your puppy when they arrive home with you can startle them too far out of sleep for them to settle back down. Many of these noises will eventually become background noise to your puppy, and disturb their sleep less. So at first they rely on having lots of small meals per day, including several at night. As they grow up, and wean off mom, they can start having fewer, larger meals. But some patient dams mother dogs will let their puppies go on nursing right up until the point they leave for their new home. Here are some simple steps to take to help instil good habits. Keep them in your room for their first few nights at home This has lots of advantages. One of which is helping your puppy to feel safe at night times in your home. Another is helping them feel secure in their bond with you. Training games which encourage them to use their problem solving skills are a more effective way of tiring out their brains too! Try to raise them at a regular time every morning, so that their body clock can adjust and predict what time to expect the day to start. Be boring when they wake up So your puppy is up for the day too early. Luckily, puppies are social animals, and will take cues for how to behave from others around them. This is why people who keep their puppy with older dogs are more likely to find that their puppy sleeps through the night and wakes up later, sooner. In fact you might even come to miss those dawn cuddles! But here are some surefire ways to undo your work, which you need to avoid. Punishment, generally, is very counterproductive for teaching dogs anything. When dogs are frightened, it inhibits their ability to learn and make connections between actions and consequences. Your puppy is also unlikely to understand what they are being punished for. Is it for being awake? Is it for not waking up sooner? Additionally, punishing a puppy damages their bond with you. But they need someone to look after and protect them. Or, you can serve fewer meals, and use those rations as training treats. Decide before your puppy comes home when breakfast time is. And resist the urge to feed them before that. A puppy who gets used to breakfast at 5am will continue to wake up expecting breakfast at 5am! The sleep schedule they keep in the early days is gruelling for us, but it is temporary. We cover all aspects of puppy rearing, including instilling good sleep habits, and trouble shooting common problems, in our Puppy Parenting course. Is your puppy an early bird? When it comes to puppy sleepy time, several physical or psychological problems can underlie mismatches here. Some of the more common are: Puppies Are Polyphasic Sleepers Like us, dogs are diurnal, meaning they get most of their zzzz hours in at night. That being said, they should easily be able to last through the night without food. However, a word of caution, if they do get into the habit of eating first thing, their body will come to expect that this remains the case. So you might find your puppy demanding food before you even get up and then earlier and earlier each day after that. Young puppies are often incapable of holding everything in all through the night. For this reason, they may try to wake you so you can let them out to do their business — if this is what they have learned to do. As your pup gets a little older, they will gain better control over their bodily functions. Noise Is The Culprit If your puppy is waking up through the night, there might be an issue with their sleeping environment. Likewise, if family noises are rousing Fido at the break of the day, they will get excited to be with their people and noisy in the process of this — barking and crying to be let out of wherever you have them shut up for the night. After all, they know that they will be getting all these things that they love the most as soon as you come and see them in the morning — so they will obviously prompt you to get there a little sooner if you can. When your puppy suddenly starts to wake early, it might be that they are uncomfortable and in pain, or illness or injury is keeping them awake. If you suspect that this might be the case, keep an eagle eye open for any other symptoms that not all is well in their world — signs of pain, loss of appetite, toileting problems, or general malaise. These would all be very good reasons to get them to the vet asap. Many of the more popular Doodles are a cross between two working canines. The end result can be a furry bundle of exuberance that needs perhaps a whole lot more exercise than you might have anticipated. Most dogs tend to calm down as they get a little older and successfully sleep through the night a little before that once they have gotten into the routine of doing so. In the meantime, though, you might have to step things up a bit to tire them out and get them to rest all night. Make Their Sleep Space Extra Cozy While it may seem your puppy can and will nap pretty much anywhere during daylight hours, they usually do so because they feel safe and secure in your company. You are now their pet parent, after all. Many dog owners swear by crate training their puppy as this sets up the kind of den-like sleeping environment dogs are adapted to. Their ancestors used to sleep underground. As dogs tend to wake with the sun, ensuring their sleeping space remains darker for longer is your best chance of encouraging them to lie in. There are also plenty of other benefits to crate training, including that it helps with both regular training, toilet training, and effective transport. For that reason, they tend to do best with routine. Their body gets accustomed to receiving food at certain times and toileting will become more predictable with this, too , and they also get used to sleeping and waking to a particular schedule too. Designate a time to put your puppy to bed each night and to get them up every morning and, no matter what, stick to it. Ensure They Are Getting What They Need Other ways you can make your puppy more ready for bed and less likely to disturb you is to be sure they are getting what they need throughout the day. This involves giving them plenty of opportunities for exercise that being said, there is a limit on how much you should be walking young puppies to avoid putting excess stress on developing bones. However, play and fun and games — especially with puppy toys — will provide your little gal or guy with enough physical and mental stimulation to guarantee they sleep all night long. The same goes for food. Make sure this is doubly the case by not feeding them as soon as you wake up. It will just make things extra noisy when they do get up. While this may seem like a logical approach, the issue with this is that puppies are at the stage where they will still need to go to the toilet every time they eat — somewhere between 5 and 30 minutes, to be a little more specific. So be sure to have dinner time out of the way in good time for everything to ahem travel through the pipes. Then make taking your pet out for a pee the last thing you do at night. Getting a little ahem toilet scent on them should help them get the idea. Ruling out both injury and illness is always a good thing to do. They might even be able to recommend some supplements to help. Puppies can definitely be little bundles of energy, but the truth is they need a whopping 18 — 20 hours of sleep in every hour period to be at their best. After all, you may have noticed that they can power through a lot of energy in a very short amount of time. Overtired behavior can be even worse than regular old playfulness. Instead, work on creating that sleep schedule whereby your pup sleeps while you do. The best thing you can do if your pup has all they need is to ignore them the best you can. Make it soft, secure, warm, dark, and quiet so they can feel safe and snug. At what age do puppies stop waking up so early? One of the main reasons a puppy wakes through the night is because they need to go potty. Having the pads there takes care of that, yet you might find your puppy not so willing to go back to sleep after this. However, from around the age of 8 months, they can go six hours or more without needing to pee at this point they should be sleeping though the night. Is it normal for a puppy to wake up at 5 am? One way to trick the little monkey into staying asleep for longer is to keep their sleep environment as dark as possible — a blanket over the crate or blackout curtains can help. What time should I put my puppy to bed? Putting your puppy to bed when you yourself head up the wooden hill is perfectly fine as long as you typically tend to head to bed around the same time each night. You should find that, once in the habit, they start to get as sleepy as you do around this time. Just be sure to take them outside for one final potty time directly before you put them down. Final Thoughts Taking on the responsibility of a new puppy is never an easy task — especially if you have never done it before. While you might have done plenty of early research on the potential issues that do occur to you, chances are more things will come up than you will have been able to anticipate. Many newbie puppy parents complain that their fur baby has them up all hours of the night and refuses to sleep longer than dawn. Learn How to Upkeep Your Doodle!

With their long flowing hair and enormous body, these hybrids are sure to leave everyone they meet awestruck. Coat and Colors These dogs are most known for their luscious fur. Their beautiful locks are typically medium length and straight. As for color, they typically inherit their coat color from their Great Pyrenees parent — white, black, and tan. They usually have solid colored coats but sometimes their coats may contain multiple colors like their German Shepherd ancestors. Because they have such dense coats, Great Pyrenees German Shepherd mixes shed heavily. So it is very important to brush them daily to help prevent tangles and remove any dead fur. Height and Weight You can expect this dog to stand between inches tall. As for weight they are typically lb. These mixes can be quite muscular and appear very strong — their huge size is sometimes intimidating, yet these hybrids are gentle giants. Although Great Pyrenees German Shepherds act tough when they are working, these dedicated dogs turn into playful puppies in the snow — they love snow! Because of their thick coats, they thrive in cold conditions. They can overheat quickly in warmer climates, so it is important to provide them with plenty of shade if you live in a warm area. Agility training with this breed forms an extremely strong bond between dog and owner and often increases confidence. They can inherit their coat from their Great Pyrenees parent which is water-resistant and acts like a built-in raincoat! These highly independent dogs are prone to wandering off. They do not see this as an issue, because they will eventually return home. But for ease of mind as an owner it is best to invest in a sturdy fence to keep them confined to a large backyard. Great Pyrenees German Shepherd Mix Personality and Temperament This hybrid takes some of the best personality traits from both the Great Pyrenees and the German Shepherd and combines them into one majestic pooch. The perfect mix inherits the kind, gentle nature of a Great Pyrenees and the loyal and dedicated nature of a German Shepherd. Both parent breeds are highly intelligent, so these dogs are very smart as well. As both parent breeds are working dogs , the Great Pyrenees German Shepherds are very determined and serious when it comes to performing tasks. Because German Shepherd Great Pyrenees mixes are so devoted to their jobs they are extremely confident and self-assured. They will almost never appear timid and will always walk around with their head held high. Despite their serious nature while they are working they have a very playful side as well. Pyrenees mixes love to run and explore and may even get into some mischief if they get bored. It is important to play often with them to challenge their minds and let them flex their hard-working instincts. Their large bodies house A LOT of energy! These pups need to be walked and played with frequently to help them burn all of this energy. They can be calm and snuggly, but to achieve this temperament, you have to make sure you exercise them regularly. As long as these dogs are socialized from pups they will be extremely loving with other people or pets. Without socialization they may not trust strangers. As long as they are socialized from a puppy, the Great Pyrenees German Shepherd mix makes an incredible family dog. These pooches are very loving and sweet and get along easily with children and other pets. Despite their large appearance these dogs are very gentle and patient so they will get along even with young children. They are easy to train because of their high intelligence and they are typically very well-behaved. These majestic dogs require some moderate grooming and also need a significant amount of exercise each day, so make sure you have the money and time to invest in these beautiful hybrids before adopting one. Exercise Requirements They are highly active dogs that need to be exercised often. Both parent breeds are used to running freely in open pastures. Because of this they require large yards and open spaces to roam in — they are very independent and like to explore. This hybrid mix also loves to walk so if you are not an active person or do not have time to commit to walking a dog, you should consider looking at another dog breed. In addition to walking you should give your mix plenty of opportunities to display its intelligence. Ideally you would give these dogs a chance to use their herding instincts, but not everyone has a flock of sheep in their backyard! Other ways to mentally challenge your pooch include agility and obedience training. They are skilled at tasks such as jumping and running through obstacle courses. Exercising them frequently will help avoid any boredom that could result in destructive behaviors like digging and chewing. Grooming and Shedding Great Pyrenees German Shepherd mixes have gorgeous fur, but they do not just magically have such silky locks — they need lots of grooming! It may be smart to invest in a de-shedding tool as well to reduce the amount of loose hair that ends up everywhere in your home. When it comes to cleaning, make sure not to bathe them too often. German Shepherds typically have sensitive skin and can easily develop rashes or skin irritations if they are over-bathed so it is better to only wash your pup when absolutely necessary max once a month. Watch their skin and pay attention to any dry patches to determine if you are over-washing your dog. Be careful to not overfeed your pup though because this mix is prone to obesity. You should spread out their food over meals per day. Controlling the amount of food that these dogs eat is very important to avoid bloat a medical condition we will discuss later in this article. Remember that German Shepherds typically have sensitive stomachs, so this mix can have a sensitive stomach too. It is important to consult with your veterinarian about the specific food you should be feeding your hybrid if they are having problems with their stomach. The most common health problems associated with this breed are hip and elbow dysplasia. They are large stature makes them prone to issues with the sockets around their hips and elbows. They can also suffer from obesity and bloat buildup of gas, food, or liquid in the stomach. This disorder is characterized by blood that is unable to clot. Heart murmurs, cataracts and epilepsy are also common ailments. This long list of potential health concerns is by no means a guarantee that all Great Pyrenees German Shepherds will suffer from these illnesses, but it is important to be aware of possible diseases your dog can develop so you can watch out for any signs or symptoms. Frequent vet visits are crucial to early detection or prevention of many of these disorders. They can eat the same commercial dog foods that other breeds can. However, we do recommend feeding them high-quality food. Plus, they will eat a lot, so be sure you can afford to feed them before you commit to adopting one. Their food can easily cost a couple hundred a month. We recommend feeding large-breed puppy food and only large-breed puppy foods when these dogs are growing. Larger dogs have different requirements when puppies than smaller breed dogs. If fed incorrectly, they can develop health problems later on. For instance, the higher levels of calcium found in smaller-breed dog food have been linked to a higher chance of hip dysplasia in large breeds. Therefore, be sure to feed your canine specifically a large-breed puppy food — and keep them on it until they are full-grown, which may take a few years! After they grow into adulthood, these dogs may still benefit from large-breed food. Often, these include nutrients like glucosamine and omega fatty acids — which can be particularly beneficial for larger breeds. If your dog develops specific health problems, we do recommend choosing a food designed to conquer those health issues. Many conditions can be controlled somewhat through diet. German Shepherds are extremely energetic. They need hours of exercise each day. After all, they are working dogs through and through and were bred to spend much of their time in the field. We only recommend purebred German Shepherds for active owners — for a good reason. However, the Great Pyrenees is far more laid back. Instead, they spend much of their time lying around, though they can produce bouts of energy if required. Their guarding style typically involves laying around until something happens. This mixed breed can be on either end of the spectrum. They may be extremely active, or they could be significantly less so. It just depends on what traits they inherit. There are some obvious signs that your dog needs more exercise — like excess jumping and running around indoors. Never force-exercise your dog, especially as a puppy. This practice can damage their legs and joints. Dogs are much more likely to develop problems later on if they were forced to move too much. Puppies are particularly susceptible to over-exercise. Their joints are still developing, and too much movement can cause problems. Furthermore, puppies may be very energetic, but their endurance is usually quite low. However, you can expect them to walk for 15 minutes a few times a day. Training should begin as early as possible. We recommend starting your puppy in group puppy classes as soon as they have all their shots. You can begin training at home before your puppy has all its shots. This mixed breed requires extensive socialization, and puppy classes are an easy way to accomplish that. Of course, you should utilize other methods of socialization as well, such as walking in parks and taking your pet to dog-friendly stores. Begin with basic techniques. As a more intelligent breed, your Germanees should master these quickly. Be sure to practice in a variety of situations with distractions. Even after your dog has accomplished these easier commands, you should continue training. The Great Pyrenees German Shepherd mix is extremely intelligent. They need mental stimulation daily to stay healthy and happy. Otherwise, they can easily become destructive and attempt to make their own fun which often involves chewing through your wall or learning how to open all your cabinets. Training is an easy way to work their brain. Running out of commands to teach will probably end up being a serious concern. You can mentally stimulate your dog through other means as well. Training just happens to be one of the easiest methods. If your canine has a thicker coat, you may need to brush them daily. Typically, these dogs will shed quite a bit. We highly recommend brushing them as much as possible, even if their coats are shorter. Their shedding can get out of control very quickly. Plus, the more you groom them, the more accepting of the process the dog will be. A de-shedding tool is sometimes helpful for extremely heavy shedding periods. Your dog will not need a full-body trim. You should keep their fur longer, even in hotter climates. Trimming can mess with their ability to regulate their body temperature, especially if it is done regularly. However, you will need to trim inside their ears, around their eyes, and on the bottom of their feet. The longer fur in these locations can cause issues and should be removed. You can do this yourself easily at home or take your pooch to a groomer to do it. You should trim their nails regularly — just like you would any dog. Brushing their teeth a few times a week is also necessary. Otherwise, periodontal problems can pop up. They inherit from a larger gene pool, which makes genetic conditions much rarer. However, they are still prone to a few issues. Hip Dysplasia The most serious and common of these is hip dysplasia. This condition affects the growth of the hips in puppies. For some reason, the socket and ball stop growing at the same rate, making them unaligned. Eventually, this creates wear-and-tear — similar to arthritis. This condition does have a genetic component. However, environmental factors also play a role. For instance, dogs that are overfed or fed the incorrect food are more likely to end up with hip dysplasia. Overexercise can also be a contributing factor. Bloat Bloat is a condition that causes the stomach to swell with gas — usually for a completely unknown reason. Not much is known about this illness. This condition strikes quickly and can kill a dog in a matter of hours. The symptoms can seem quite unserious, though. Sometimes, dogs just act a bit uncomfortable until their stomach swells so much that they go into shock. However, it is usually not so noticeable that it prompts owners to see veterinary attention. As an owner of a larger dog, it is vital to know the symptoms of this condition and stay on the lookout for them. Quick vet care is essential to recovery without any long-term effects. If a dog is affected by this problem, they usually do not clot correctly. As you might imagine, this can cause serious bleeding problems! However, it is important to diagnose it. Usually, this condition is noticed when the dog gets injured or undergoes minor surgery. Dogs that are spayed or neutered often get diagnosed earlier than dogs that are not — simply because the bleeding is noticed during the surgery. To prevent this disease, breeders often genetically test both parents. You can prevent this condition by not breeding two dogs with the gene together. Male vs. Female There is no difference between the two genders of this breed. The sizing difference that may be apparent with both their parents disappears when you mix them together. Puppies simply differ too much in size for a distinction between gender to develop. Males may act a bit different if they notice a female nearby in heat — even if they only catch her scent on a nearby tree. For the most part, there is no serious difference between these genders. They are very protective of their family and property, which can make them aggressive towards strangers. However, training and socialization can help get around this. You just need the time and patience for this vital socialization. This canine is great for families and children. They can even be socialized to get along with other pets. We only recommend this breed for those who have plenty of time to dedicate to them. These crossbreeds are also commonly called by other names like Germanees and Shepnees. The German Shepherd Great Pyrenees mix is a relatively recent crossbreed.

The dogs rapidly rose to fame in the s, especially for their use in movies like Rin-Tin-Tin. They are overall good family dogs that form an unbreakable bond with their owners.

Almond-shaped, medium-size eyes set a bit obliquely, just like those of the parent breeds. The eye color may be dark or rich dark brown. Pointed or v-shaped ears that may be carried erect and open to the front as those of the German Shepherd or floppy like the ones of the Pyr. A long tail that extends to the hock and is typically carried low or curved over the back when the dog is aroused. The tail could be bushy and hang with a slight curve if your Germanees inherits primarily from the German Shepherd. If the puppy is more of their Great Pyrenees parent, the tail will be well plumed with a more accentuated plume at the end. A German Shepherd Great Pyrenees mix will grow to approximately inches .The weight and height of an individual Shepnees will vary within this range depending on their age and gender. Younger than 12 month-old Shepnees are smaller in size. Also, female dogs typically weigh and measure less than their male counterparts. This breed has a muscular and robust size, aside from being a large and long dog, since both its parent breeds tend to be so. Applies to all dog food recalls in the U.
