You already got lots of good info from other people, but I just had to point out that it's shepherd, not shepard. GSDs are a herding breed, hence the "herd" in their name. We don't expect everyone here to know how to spell dachshund, or chihuahua or bichon frise or shih tzu, but if you're considering getting a GSD, you should learn how to spell the name properly, especially since it's relevant to purpose of the breed.

Carry on, and good luck!
