My first german shepherd ...any tips/advice???
 

Got a gsd named Ivy 2 weeks ago. I've owned dogs but never have I owned such a smart breed. She is very well behaved with me and listens to my commands. She already knows the commands "sit" and "shake." Besides command training what other ways can I keep her mentally stimulated. I'm expecting in a few weeks and am wondering if my ivy will have any issues with the new baby. Have any of you people had any problems introducing a family pet to a new family member? Would appreciate some advices:)

CONGRATS! I just got my first one in August. I agree. They are smarter.
I have no experience with the baby thing. Sorry.

Lol it's ok! I mean I've heard they're protective dogs,but I wanna know more. Only problem is that she only listens to me. She just plays with everyone else. Other than that she's been amazing :) I'm just afraid she will end up outsmarting everyone else like she has already
