German Shepherds are known for their intelligence, loyalty, and versatility. They make excellent family pets, law enforcement dogs, and service dogs. However, to fully unlock their potential, advanced training is necessary. In this subchapter, we will discuss the importance of advanced training for German Shepherds. Firstly, advanced training improves the dog's overall behavior. It teaches the dog to be obedient, disciplined, and responsive. Advanced training also helps to eliminate any bad behaviors such as aggression, excessive barking, and destructive chewing. This makes the dog more pleasant to be around and safer for both the owner and the general public. Secondly, advanced training enhances the dog's abilities. German Shepherds are natural protectors, and advanced training can turn them into formidable guard dogs. They can be trained to detect drugs, explosives, and even diseases. Advanced training can also teach them to perform complex tasks such as search and rescue, tracking, and obedience competition. Thirdly, advanced training strengthens the bond between the dog and the owner. Dogs are social animals, and by training together, the owner and the dog develop a deep and meaningful relationship. Advanced training requires a lot of time and effort, and the dog learns to trust and rely on the owner. This bond makes the dog more obedient and responsive, which makes training even more effective. Finally, advanced training can be a fun and rewarding experience for both the owner and the dog. German Shepherds are intelligent and enjoy learning new things. They thrive on challenges and enjoy being praised for their accomplishments. Advanced training allows the owner to bond with the dog while teaching them new skills and tricks. In conclusion, advanced training is essential for German Shepherds. It improves their behavior, enhances their abilities, strengthens the bond between the owner and the dog, and can be a fun and rewarding experience. German Shepherd owners should consider advanced training as a way to take their dog to the next level.

From the author of Team Dog, Trident K9 Warriors gave readers an inside look at the Navy SEAL teams' elite K9 warriors-who they are, how they are trained, and the extreme missions they undertake to save lives. From detecting explosives to eliminating the bad guys, these powerful dogs are also some of the smartest and highest skilled working animals on the planet. Mike Ritland's job is to train them. This special edition re-telling presents the dramatic tale of how Ritland discovered his passion and grew up to become the trainer of the nation's most elite military working dogs. Ritland was a smaller-than-average kid who was often picked-on at school-which led him to spend more time with dogs at a young age. After graduating BUD/S training-the toughest military training in the world-to become a SEAL, he was on combat deployment in Iraq when he saw a military working dog in action and instantly knew he'd found his true calling. Ritland started his own company to train and supply working and protection dogs for the U.S. Government, Department of Defense, and other clients. He also started the Warrior Dog Foundation to help retired Special Operations dogs live long and happy lives after their service. Navy SEAL Dogs is the true story of how Mike Ritland grew from a skinny, bullied child, to a member of our nation's most elite SEAL Teams, to the trainer of the world's most highly skilled K9 warriors.
