Pets affect families in positive ways everyday. They are good companions and keep the kids busy regardless if it is playing ball or taking a walk. Children learn how to care for other things which teaches them responsibility. Children also learn that when there is one friend to rely on it is a dog. That is why I want a German Shepard.German Shepard’s are good companion. These dogs stay by anyone’s side protecting regardless of what situation. It could be a person trying to break into your house. If single and have no one else to be with there is always your dog to rely on. They are always standing at the front door waiting to give a handshake or lick on the face. German Shepard’s will always be there for anyone like a friend.
When it comes to having children these pups will sure give them a run for the day. This is the pet to own in order to keep children active and playful. My sister and I can take the German Shepard outside for a walk but we need to be careful because it might get loose and run away. German Shepard’s love playing on a road trip and leaving us home for this is the pet we want to sleep with. Without this parents can take a break and for us we won’t want to quit. It is because there is always someone to talk to or have fun.
Here comes great responsibility so be ready. Cleaning and taking care of the dog is just like taking care of us. This is a new lesson to be learned and our job is responsibility. Be ready to clean up that poop. If not use a poop scupper to pick it up and then put it in the backyard it makes good fertilizer. Make sure to feed the pup and give it water and next give the German Shepard a doggy treat. Remember to wash the dog if they are inside or outside. These animals need to stay fresh and clean but do it once every week. These are the needs of all animals because without this they become stinky and starve without food and water.
With great power comes great responsibility. Without this wonderful animal there would be no place on Earth without a best friend to wake up to. Whether it is a lick on the cheek, barking, handshaking, or wagging of the tail this animal has enough keen sense and knows what is best.
