White German Shepherd

History

The White German Shepherd is a direct result of a different gene, causing the German Shepherd to be a solid white. This breed is not mixed with any other bloodlines, however is considered a separate dog breed when registering. It may come as no surprise to learn that the German Shepherd was created in Germany. This breed was created after crossing different types of local herding and farm dogs in the areas of Wutemburg and Bavaria. This breed is extremely popular in the USA today as a family companion, working dog on the farm and in the police force as well as even being active in the war. The German Shepherd Dog is a magnificent breed.

If you're looking for an active breed who is everything including calm, assertive, quick to learn, fearless, courageous, playful, loving, loyal and protective, then you have come across the right breed. The White German Shepherd needs daily outside activity; both mental and physical activity daily in order to remain the best that he or she can be while indoors at night. This breed is an excellent family dog for an active family, as well a wonderful working partner whether you are on a farm, or in police work.

Grooming

Special Notes

A properly fenced in area is highly recommended for this breed to ensure safety of your new dog and other animals while outdoors. Please fully educate yourself about the German Shepherd prior to adding one to your family to ensure you are able to provide life long physical and financial care to your new pet. All dogs originate from wolves (Canis Lupus). Each breed of dog was originally created by mixing different breeds together in an effort to bring forth certain characteristics. Once a breeder has created acceptable “breed characteristics” within their bloodline and these “breed characteristics” have shown to be reliably reproduced in the offspring for three (3) generations, the bloodline may be upgraded from the category of “foundation stock” to “pure-bred”. The same “pure-bred” breed standards vary from different continents, countries, territories, regions, breed clubs, and canine pure-breed registries depending on the goals of their breeders. Dog DNA testing companies can have accurate results for a specific bloodline of a small colony of dogs. However, there are tens of thousands of different bloodlines in the world which have not yet been tested for marker baseline results by Dog DNA testing companies as of 2017. For this reason Dog DNA testing companies do not guarantee the 100% accuracy of their breed lineage results and will also show different marker results for the same pure-bred breed in different continents, countries, territories, regions, breed clubs, and canine pure-breed registries depending on the goals of their breeders.
