German shepherds need at least an hour of exercise per day. You can tell from their muscular frame that a simple walk will not suffice.
These dogs need to run and make wonderful jogging partners. This robust pup is not suited for apartment living. Having a large fenced in area is a great safe spot to play fetch and burn off steam.
Always keep your dog on a leash when outside your home, calls to return are often out matched by instincts to run. Like most dogs, German shepherds will become destructive if they are not given an outlet for their energy.
