German Shepherds are amazing creatures.

German Shepherds can grow up to 2.5 feet. Also, they weigh from 50 to 90 pounds. Plus, they eat 40 pounds of food a month.

German Shepherds were mainly bred for protecting and herding sheep. Now, police use them a lot. Also, they are great to sniff out bombs, drugs, and other illegal material. Sometimes they even work for the military!

I saw the puppies and I couldn’t resist! Did you know, in the military, German Shepherds sometimes have holsters they ride in to get moving faster?

Lots of interesting information about German Sheherds. You did good research to come up with this information. It may get expensive to feed one at home.
