Hello
What would be the best age to get puppy?
Problem is i work from 3pm till 12am , should i get puppy or teen GSD?
thank you for help

i would suggest a "teen" GSD. Especially if you have nobody else to help you take care of the pup. older pups tend to be able to hold their bladder longer whereas a younger puppy HAS to go out every couple hours to avoid accidents.

6-10 months sounds good.

Like everyone else has said definately an older puppy so much better bladder control!!

Unless you have someone that come come over several times a day while you are at work for the first several months, an older pup would be a better choice.
