Hi all, My 5 year old Gsd has an aural hematoma on both ears. One side is bigger than the other, so that ear is drooping. His vet prescribed some prednisone to help the ear's blood vessels reabsorb the blood. My concern is that his ear won't go back up, what are your thoughts on this, and how...

Hi all, During the hot summer days, my dog gets skin issues quite frequently. He gets lots of hotspots. They usually go away after applying certain creams/sprays, but occasionally they become major infections. Additionally, even when they don't become infected, it bothers me that he gets them...

Hello GSD community, I'm a GSD puppy named VAGA (male) and it's my BD, today I'm turning 6 months old🦮 I live in South Algeria.

I've been wanting to get a German Shepherd for a long time and I was just wondering if I bought a female puppy for myself and if she would be okay to (of course with boundaries and carefully introducing each other) meet the family dog Bailey who is a Westie. Any thoughts?
