Basic Dog Obedience Training

German Shepherds are very smart, showing a high level of dog intelligence, and can generally learn tasks within 2 to 10 repetitions. Since they learn so quickly, it is easy to teach them bad habits if you are not careful. Provide leadership, rules and structure, or your dog will make her own rules.
