By Megan Landry


White German Shepherds are striking animals that possess many of the same traits and characteristics of their traditional counterparts. They enjoy physical activity, are loyal protectors of their families, and show a great deal of affection to their owners. Although most registries do not recognize white as a traditional German Shepherd color, this breed is loved by many individuals throughout the world, and fortunately, White German Shepherds for sale are not difficult to find.

The breed was first developed in Europe. It is believed to be a combination of traditional Shepherds and dogs that had recessive white genes in their bloodline. The coats associated with this breed are beautiful and unique, and as such appeal to many pet owners.

Dogs of this type cannot be entered into shows or competitions for which breed confirmation is required. However, they make loyal and loving pets. In addition, White Shepherd fans have created their own club in order to improve breeding programs. The club holds its own shows and competitions, which many pet owners find beneficial, as otherwise they could not show their dogs.

This breed is known as a good protector, watchdog, and tracker. In addition, such dogs excel in sports because of their muscular, athletic builds. They are also good herders, and for this reason are frequently seen on cattle farms and ranches. Due to their love of physical activity, it is important for those who own such dogs to ensure they can run and play in a suitable area each day.

Similar to their darker colored relatives, they are quite reliable and are usually have an even temper. This is why such dogs are often trained as service canines. They are especially good at helping to care for individuals who are blind or have other handicaps. Because they are easy to train, they are used as police dogs on a regular basis.

Such dogs are large in stature, and are usually about twenty-six inches tall. Such dogs are typically longer than they are tall by a few inches, and they are muscular and strong. Fortunately, their stature has never prohibited them from being a perfect family pet, as they are usually careful and cautious around children.

Just like traditional canines in this category, this kind of Shepherd is at an increased risk for specific hereditary health issues. These include hip or elbow dysplasia, hemophilia, and eczema. Keratitis, which is an inflammatory eye condition, and epilepsy are also a problem among such dogs, although the latter two disorders are much less common than the former three.

When searching for White German Shepherds for sale, is important for consumers to select a breeder carefully. Doing business with a person whose kennels appear unclean or crowded, or who attempts to meet the prospective customer in a location other than where the animals are kept is never a good idea. Fortunately, trustworthy breeders are not difficult to find, and essentially any animal lover will be happy with the pleasure such a pet brings to his or her home.
