Day to Day

The day to day requirements of a German Shepherd Dog are relatively low. Mainly food, water, exercise, your company and lots of love and attention!

Food
As with any dog, an obese German Shepherd is likely to live a shorter life. Give your German Shepherd only the food manufacturer’s daily recommended amount.

Grooming
A daily brush, although not absolutely necessary, will benefit your German Shepherd. For more information on German Shepherd grooming, see our recommended grooming information here: German Shepherd Grooming.

Exercise
For details on German Shepherd exercise requirements, read our more detailed information here: German Shepherd Exercise.

For further help with the day to day requirements of your German Shepherd, we can highly recommend German Shepherd Dog by animal behaviourist, Dr Peter Neville.
