She is very, very loving and playful, but also very protective of all of the family in the house. She likes to chew a lot and she barks a bit (mostly when she hears a noise from outside and thinks someone is out there).


She doesn't do great with obedience, but she is under a year so we are still working on it. She is very strong and stubborn too!

Have one too!

I just adopted one 6 months ago from the local kill shelter and she is a great dog. She is almost a year now and we are still working on leash walking and coming when called in the park.

She is a sweet happy go lucky dog that is friendly but protective as well. She barks at anything and anyone that comes to the door...

Man's best friend

I too have a German Shepherd Pitbull, the best dog I have ever had. So smart, so loving, and so obedient. Easy to train, very protective and the best friend you could have.

I have a 6 yr old that I got from a shelter when she was just a couple months old. She's the best dog I've ever had or been around, hands down!

They are extremely intelligent and eager to serve and please their owner. Also very loving and protective. As the owner, it's important to be firm, direct and consistent (but not mean!). These dogs can sense human vibes incredibly well. That said, they know when you're not sure of yourself, so don't be unsure. Consistency is key so not to confuse. Mine was house broke within a couple weeks... I'd never seen such a thing.

Mine needs regular exercise and attention or she will get frustrated... and lets me know it. I gave her lots of things to chew up when she was young and she quickly learned what she could and couldn't chew. Sure she destroyed many toys in quick time, but so what... that's what they're for.

Anyway, I don't mean to sound preachy. You probably know a lot of this stuff already. If he's anything like my Niki then you are blessed with an exceptionally wonderful dog!

It takes a little work but the reward is great!
