    Raising 2 German Shepherds

    Hi to all would just like some opinions on raising 2 shepherds. Do you or would you rase them together or would you pen them up seperately and only together when you are present. Would love your feedback.

    Re: Raising 2 German Shepherds

    Are you planning to raise up puppies together or adults? If they are pup's sure they can stay together in a run. Just becareful with letting them out for a play that they don't get to rough and you shouldn't have a problem.

    If you want to get two adults however, seperate them and let them out individually till you know how they get on etc by meeting on leads ...

    Cheers

    it all depends on how they get alone togeather

    i my self belive in using pens and bringing out the dog when wanted and when i am in the yard il let them all out supervised to have a run together
    the reason i do it is so when they are in the runs they relax or sleep so when you get them out they are ready for work
    were as when they are all free to run in the yard they get to do what they want play or sleep in the case of 2 dog most of the time playing

    but in saying that i have seen dogs run in a pack full time and being fine with no problems and still work just as well

    so it all depends on what works for you

    if there is any dog agro in one of the dog to the point they cant run togeather i would be looking at rehoming the dog a situation i have lernt the hard way ive never had a fight but ive all ways had to watch like a hawk and
    it make you edgy when the dogs out all the time wich is no way for you to enjoy your dogs
    Regards

    yeah Nathan I hear you, have heard your view from a few others as well. Going to give it a go. I recently had two litter mates they are now 14months old.(brothers) From what my very good breeder and friend tells me is that they became more dog dependant as they were penned together. One was more the dominant one. My next dog or pup I get will be a female but will prob pen seperate and let in yard together only when im present.
