Training also helps German Shepherds learn how to interact appropriately with people and other animals. Additionally, obedience training can make living with a German Shepherd much easier, as they will know how to follow commands such as sit, stay, come, and down. Training a German Shepherd is well worth it when you have a happy and well-behaved dog and can be a great bonding experience for you and your dog.

Training your German Shepherd with our Academy
At Yorkshire Canine Academy, we offer a range of training options for German Shepherds of all ages. Our obedience classes are designed to teach basic commands and help owners establish a strong bond with their dog. For German Shepherd puppies, we recommend our puppy development days, which provides a bespoke hands-on approach that helps owners get started on the right foot. For socialisation, our group classes are a great option, allowing puppies to interact with other dogs in a controlled environment.
Residential Dog Training
For some owners with German Shepherd, we strongly believe in the power of residential dog training. For German Shepherds specifically, this type of training can be incredibly beneficial in helping with obedience and aggression issues. We have seen first-hand how successful residential dog training can be in transforming a dog’s behaviour. Not only does it give the dog a chance to learn in a one-on-one setting, but it also allows the trainer to get to know the dog’s unique personality and needs.
This personalised approach is often key in helping a dog make lasting behaviour changes. In addition, we find that the structure and routine of residential dog training helps to promote good behaviour even after the training is completed.
