German Shepherd Training “told when to go outside”. (In loving memory 9/19/03 – 9/23/08)

By


Shelby 4 years old, teaching Shelby that I go outside first . Thisvideo has now become a classic. August 7, 2007 Our beloved Shelby had to be put to sleep on September 23rd 2008, due to an unknown illness. In May 2008 I let her outside to play, I meant to change her water bucket for the day, but before I had a chance to, she drank some water from her bucket and developed what I believe was a bacterial infection. A few days later, she started throwing up yellow bile and wouldn’t eat, so we took her to the veterinarian. He gave her some medication that appeared to have stopped whatever it was. Then four months later after we moved into our new home, the symptoms appeared again, only this time Shelby went from 80 lbs to 60lbs. She started showing sign of fatigue and wouldnt eat. All she would do is lay around, she had no energy to move. Two different veterinarians in Florida couldn’t figure out what was wrong with her. They did nothing for Shelby, and when her health deteriorated very badly on Monday September 22nd, their response was, we dont know whats wrong with her, but you can drive to Stuart Florida and pay $500 to have them take a look at her. We didnt have $500 upfront, and they wouldnt even look at Shelby without it. Based upon Shelby’s condition the morning of September 23rd, we made the decision to put her to sleep. She lost 20 lbs and wouldn’t eat, drink or go the bathroom. I wasn’t about to let her continue in the state she was in. The decision my husband and I

    All training was done by me, and this was my first German Shepherd. They are very smart. You have to know how to train them, and teach them EVERYDAY the same routine/training.. otherwise you’ll have a lot of problems. They are very social, not yard dogs, so make sure you have the time for one. They require a lot of time and attention. Send me a video when you get yours.
