      they just also have a character. one might love to be touched by strangers, others might be scared of strangers or agressive against them. most of the time its about luck and training, how your pet turns out.

      @@azyrennvd4814 Lisa an Bree covered the slope. You can see it in most photos of German Shepherds as that’s been a standard for the breed for a long time. The reason why this is bad is that it puts a tremendous amount of stress on their hindquarters. Which is compounded by the fact that the hips and joints ended up compromised to get that sloping look. Many Shepherds have an underlying condition known as Hip Dysplasia where the socket isn’t fully covering the ball of the bone. This can lead to pain and a large number of medical conditions that can make the dog’s life miserable and the vet bills high.

      In the U.S. and Canada, they are still just considered White Shepherd variants. They have actually been around in some fashion since the inception of the German Shepherd Breed. But the gene that causes the white fur is recessive, so if you breed one with a standard colors Shepherd, you get standard color puppies. For the longest time, the white color was considered a disqualifying trait and white puppies were often destroyed by the breeders. There was also a misconception for a long time that White Shepherds were contributing to the dulling or lightning of standard Shepherd coat colors. I think it was around the late 80's early 90's that there was enough interest in the variant that breeders finally began to breed them intentionally. Because Switzerland was the first country to officially recognize the breed, they have since been named the Swiss Shepherd. And I know all this because of my own White Shepherd. You will find that the only video I have ever posted is of my own pupper playing soccer.

    We have a two year old female WSS. Easily by far the best and smartest dog I've ever had. I've lost count to the amount of commands and words that she recognizes. Where I go, she will follow. She has a behaviour inteligence that's off the charts. We've taken her almost to every scenario, from cannoying to moutain bike rides, to dog parks, restaurants, slow walks, outdoor runs, music concerts, beach, friends houses, shopping, you name it and she always behaves properly. In Portugal animals can't go inside shops, so she just sits and waits at the door. Very gentle with all animals. In the house she's alert and signals strangers but not excessively. Absolutely focused on us. No one else exists. Strangers can call her or try to interact with her, and she just ghosts them. Because of this she has helped two friends of mine to overcome their fear of dogs. And of course, incredibly beautiful with the whitest white coat I've seen. There isn't one single time that we go out without someone smiles at us, try to pet her of even kiss her. I've met other WSS and they have similar treats and characteristics and this video just proves that WSS is an awesome breed. I regularly watch your videos and boy...you have some very badly behaved dogs, not like this one who was a delight.

    Very informative! We rescued a white shepherd and he was an outstanding dog. The rescue didn’t know if we’d want such a calm shepherd. Now his demeanor makes sense. He looked quite similar with some tan mixed in with his white fur. My son named him Tanner. We lost him at age 12. 💕

      I would be interested to know what type of voodoo was performed on that Swiss to have zero prey drive. In all honesty, it's minor in mine, but it's directed at cats. He doesn't want to harm them, just to catch them long enough that they'd play with him. Somehow communication falls apart when he uses his considerably large mouth to catch them. So he ends up crying, not because they scratched him, but because they still ran away from him. I have gotten very good at spotting cats in random bushes as we walk, but I sadly haven't developped night vision to the extent I need it to spot them before he does.

      @@alinasartcafe We had ours as a foster (now in her forever home!) and have cats at home and she was very interested, but would never chase - even when they displayed prey-like activity (running, etc). Not sure what magic was involved, but she was SUPER sweet with our older cat (21), and would always try to mother him by lying next to him and pulling him into her belly with her paws or nudging him with her nose, then licking and cleaning him. He is grumpy old gus, but he loved the attention and would roll on his back and purr madly as she cleaned him! We thought maybe she was a mill mom who had her puppies taken away, but never got any details, other than she was not fixed and had obviously had at least one litter previsouly.

    How lovely to see a white Swiss shepherd on your channel. I too have one, although my ten-year-old male doesn’t like having his nails trimmed. He used to be ok with it, but not anymore. Yes, WSS’s are soft as a cloud, very gentle, and even tempered. As others have commented, Dakota too has been instrumental in getting small children that are afraid of dogs to get over their fear. But my proudest time with him was when he got a fear-driven panicked street dog from Puerto Rico to accept humans into his life, and to now lead a relatively normal life, despite its beginnings. It took us about a year for that transformation. I love my Dakota from the bottom of my heart. By the way, he still thinks he is a puppy.

    I took my mom to her hairdresser yesterday and she does things out of her own home. I heard a doggo whining and I asked her if she had a dog. She said yes and I asked her if she would let the dog out. It instantly came to me for affection. She was such a good dog, a cross between a lab and a husky. She had the hetero husky eyes. I made a joke of the dog never getting any loving and the woman agreed with me! Wth? She told me she got the dog "because it was so pretty" but over the years she ignores it because it didn't turn out how she wanted it to. This poor dog was so loving! She was wound up because she doesn't get any exercise. I took her for a walk and after a couple of leash corrections, she was able to refocus and not pull me. I was amazed at how easily she responded, what with being half husky. You could hear her long nails tap on the concrete. She needs some TLC. The woman also has three cats that she pets and gives attention to, right in front of the dog. Pardon my French, but what a bitch this woman is.
    The woman told me flatly, "You can have her if you want." I wish I could, but my lease agreement doesn't allow pets. I'd like to go there once a week to walk her, trim her nails, give her some healthy treats, and just love her. I don't know whether to take her to a no-kill Humane Society, because she's older and unfortunately people are largely against getting older doggos. It's sad. Would she go there with the hopes of finding a good family that will love her or do I turn a blind eye and let her stay there, where no one really cares/loves her? Some days, I really hate people in general. I'm hoping that maybe I can get some helpful comments here.
