Puppy Proofing Your Home for Your New German Shepherd
Your New Dog needs to be safe and sound, and this can be best done by starting to ensure your home is puppy proofed before your pet arrives.
Puppy Proofing Your Home for Your New German Shepherd
It is best to think of your puppy like a new baby when it comes to protecting their safety when they come home. Quite seriously, if you have some things that you would not want them to play with, break, ior otherwise get involved with, it needs to be put away, up high, and out of the way.
German Shepherds will make even the most determined babies seem like small cheese. Seriously, they are curious and very intelligent. Hence, you also need to hide any chemicals, and we even use one of those baby doors that are often used in front of steps to separate a section of the house. The idea is that the dog has access to the living areas of the house, but not the bedrooms. However we have found, if she needs to get out urgently to relieve herself, she will break through the gate anyways, but otherwise respects it and knows where she can and is not supposed to go in the house.
It is also important to remember that German Shepherds are extremely intelligent, and can work out most ‘protective systems’ and you really shoud in no way underestimate your dog. It is for this reason that they are as good as they are in the fioelds of police work, rescue, and other obedience, and knowledge areas.
This is explained in much more detail in the German Shepherd Guide Book here.
