Toiletten-Training Play biting Tolerance to touch Toilet training Puppy teeth Crate training Heatstroke Adolescence Nutrition Dogs and toys Dwarfism Dog friendly garden Christmas time Fireworks Wenn Welpen gehen müssen, müssen sie gehen. Das bedeutet in der Regel direkt nach dem Aufwachen, ein paar Minuten nach jeder Mahlzeit und in regelmäßigen Abständen dazwischen. Die einzige Sorge Ihres Welpen besteht darin, dies außerhalb seines Fress- und Schlafplatzes zu tun – er weiß nicht instinktiv, dass Sie es vorziehen würden, wenn er nach draußen gehen würde. Wenn Sie sich der Aufgabe mit ununterbrochener Wachsamkeit und viel Geduld widmen können, können Sie Ihren Welpen in nur wenigen Tagen stubenrein machen. Beginnen Sie sofort Beginnen Sie, sobald Sie gemeinsam nach Hause kommen. Legen Sie Ihren Welpen an der Leine auf Zeitungspapier oder auf eine Trainingsmatte für die Welpentoilette oder noch besser auf das Gras an der Stelle im Garten, die er benutzen soll. Für den Welpen hängt die Suche nach einem Ort, an dem er zur Toilette gehen kann, mit dem Geruch zusammen. Wenn Sie Ihren Welpen an denselben Ort bringen, entwickelt er eine Verbindung zu dem vorgesehenen Bereich und kann sich selbst erleichtern. Sagen Sie Ihrem Welpen, was er tun soll, mit einem Befehl wie „Toilette“, warten Sie (warten und warten), bis er geht, loben Sie ihn dann ausgiebig und bieten Sie ihm ein leckeres Leckerli an. Achten Sie auf „Circle and Sniff“. Jedes Mal, wenn Sie sehen, dass Ihr Welpe zu kreisen und zu schnüffeln beginnt, werden Sie aktiv. Bringen Sie sie auf eine Zeitung, eine Trainingsmatte für die Welpentoilette oder ins Gras nach draußen, geben Sie ihnen das Kommando und geben Sie anschließend Lob und ein Leckerli. Sie werden nach dem Spielen auch auf die Toilette gehen wollen, also bringen Sie sie direkt nach draußen. Seien Sie besonders geduldig Nach ein paar Tagen werden sie auf die Idee kommen und Sie ein oder zwei Mal bellen, um Sie zu warnen. Stellen Sie einfach sicher, dass Sie besonders geduldig sind. Es kann zu Unfällen kommen. Halten Sie daher einen großzügigen Vorrat an Zeitungen oder Welpenmatten im ganzen Haus bereit und räumen Sie schnell auf – verbleibende Gerüche fördern wiederholtes Verhalten. Wenn es zu einem Unfall kommt und Sie anwesend sind, bringen Sie den Welpen einfach nach draußen, während Sie aufräumen. Wenn Sie den Welpen züchtigen, wird er dies nur an einem Ort tun, an dem Sie ihn in Zukunft nicht mehr finden können. Wenn Sie einen Unfall entdecken und nicht anwesend waren, räumen Sie ihn einfach auf. Wenn Sie den Welpen züchtigen, wird er nicht verstehen, warum Sie schlechte Laune haben. Erarbeiten Sie ihren Toilettenplan Sie werden schnell herausfinden, wie oft Ihr Welpe nach draußen muss – je nach Größe kann es alle zwei Stunden, jede Stunde oder jede halbe Stunde sein. Wenn sie manchmal scheinbar nichts anderes tun, als sich umzukreisen und zu schnüffeln, müssen Sie sie so lange nach draußen bringen, bis sie ordnungsgemäß auf die Toilette geübt sind. Es kann frustrierend sein, aber am Ende lohnt es sich. Deutsche Schäferhundliga von Großbritannien

Hitzschlag Play biting Tolerance to touch Toilet training Puppy teeth Crate training Heatstroke Adolescence Nutrition Dogs and toys Dwarfism Dog friendly garden Christmas time Fireworks EVERY SECOND COUNTS The weather is always a topic of conversation an even more so after recent heat waves which may now become a regular occurrence in the future. Most people are aware of the dangers of heatstroke, and take precautions to protect themselves. Dogs are reliant on their owners protecting them from being in a situation which could result in this extremely distressing potentially fatal condition. A dog`s normal body temperature is around 37.8 - 38.9 degrees centigrade. To maintain the body temperature a dog will instinctively when it falls below this, if the dogs body temperature increases this will stimulate the dog to pant as the normal cooling function. Dogs do not sweat if overheated as the sweat glands they have are on the paw pads which are not a significant aid to heat loss. REGULATING BODY TEMPERATURE The dog`s respiratory system controls the body temperature by way of panting. By taking rapid breaths in and out air passes over the extended tongue increasing moisture evaporation of saliva, mucus membranes of the nasal passage mouth and lungs. The evaporation of water exchanges hot air from the lungs with cooling external air taking heat away from the body. The evaporation of moisture during panting uses large amounts of water which must be replaced for the dog to maintain effective body cooling, therefore a plentiful supply of cool water is vital. Shade with unobstructed air flow and a low humidity are also necessary for the evaporation process through panting to lower the body temperature for any length of time. In normal situations this cooling system works well. as a dog will instinctively take frequent drinks of water, not exert themselves and find a cool place to lay down, stretching out to contact his less hairy underside with the cool surface. HEATSTROKE RISK The danger of heatstroke occurs when a dog is in an environment or situation where he can no longer self regulate his body temperature loosing the ability to remove excess heat. If he is unable to cool himself his body temperature will very quickly increase to a dangerously high level. In the failed attempt to cool his body the dog will become more and more agitated, generating more heat and humidity to the surrounding temperature. Panting becomes faster. the short quick breaths are not effective in filling and emptying the lungs with air. With insufficient oxygen circulating the dog`s body it will become unable to function and gradually shut down. The neurological and multi organ failure can be fatal in as little as ten minutes. RISK SITUATIONS The most frequent situation resulting in heatstroke is leaving a dog shut in a car in the sun even if the windows are partly open, it does not have to be a particularly hot day for the temperature inside the car to reach dangerous levels for the dog. The more agitated the dog becomes moving around and panting the heat and humidity within the car will rise until the dog`s natural cooling mechanism is overwhelmed, There are other risk circumstances which can lead to heat stress which could progress to heatstroke. A dog confined for a prolonged time in a covered cage can overheat due to poor ventilation and reduced airflow, being left in the sun without shade and water, taking the dog for a walk during the hottest part of the day, prolonged physical activity during hot weather will all generate excess body heat. If the German Shepherd is very old, or very young, or has underlying health issues, or is overweight this will add to the risk factors. RECOGNISING SIGNS OF OVERHEATING The first moments of a dog showing signs of overheating to developing heatstroke can progress alarmingly quickly. Recognising the early signs and taking immediate action is vital, it is not a wait and see situation. The dog will be restless and in obvious distress. Panting will become excessive and prolonged. The affected dog will try to stretch out and start to drool thick saliva. If left untreated in the challenging situation the condition will worsen. The dogs tongue will become tacky as the saliva dries from the continual panting and the lack of water to drink. His heart rate will increase, he will stagger unable to walk, he may vomit, become unresponsive to you. In the later stages he will have muscle tremors, seizures and as his condition deteriorates he will eventually collapse, unless he has emergency treatment he will become unconscious and will die. If this sounds distressing it`s because it is, especially as most cases are highly preventable. Action must be taken at the very first signs of heat stress, delay can be fatal. TAKE ACTION NOW The dog`s body is overheating so the first goal is to lower his body temperature by moving him to a shaded cool place, if possible with a cool breeze, cool air from a fan or an air conditioned room. Keep him calm and give him a drink of water. Cool water sponged or poured gently, concentrating on his head, neck and groin areas will be beneficial in cooling him. If in the early stages of overheating or a mild case of heat stress he should gradually start to recover with this treatment. keep him quiet and cool offer him frequent small drinks of water allowing him to fully recover. A dog already in the advanced stages of heatstroke may have collapsed or be unconscious, IMMEDIATELY remove him from the hot environment and lay him on his side(a cool surface such as a tiled floor or shaded grass if available is ideal. If he is unconscious make sure his airways are clear. Open his mouth and pull his tongue forward, keep his head extended. Bringing his body temperature down is now an acute emergency. As with early stages cool water is needed. Use a hose on a gentle shower or pour water if a hose is not available on his head (make sure to avoid his nose and mouth) neck, groin and lower back. Don`t use iced water as this will cause the blood vessels in the skin to contract restricting blood flow and cooling, (but if that is all that is available use it carefully its better than doing nothing. Keep the water treatment up until his breathing starts to settle but not so long that the dog starts to shiver (shivering is the body trying to increase the temperature) offer him a drink of cool water as he begins to recover. Depending on the severity of his condition he should be transported as quickly as possible, preferably in a vehicle with air conditioning set on chill to continue cooling him to the nearest veterinary surgery, make a phone call before to let them know you are on your way, while asking them if any additional first aid is required for the dog. A dog that has been affected by a severe case of heatstroke may need intravenous fluids to treat the dehydration and cool the body, oxygen to aid his breathing and ongoing monitoring and treatment for any internal damage. Even a mild case of overheating when the dog appears recovered monitor his condition for a few days after in case of any internal complications. PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE Never leave your German Shepherd unattended in a parked car even in cooler spring sun. Remember if your car is in the shade when you leave it the sun does not stay in the same position and the car may soon be in full sun. Leaving the dog in the car "for just a minute" can be too long on a hot day. When your dog is travelling in the car on a sunny day, provide a cool pad for him to lie on, good ventilation, shaded windows and plan regular breaks to give him a drink of water. A void taking him for a walk, chasing a ball, prolonged exercise during the warmest part of the day. Early morning or evening will be cooler and the best time for his exercise, but when it is very hot do not over do it. Do not leave your German Shepherd in a hot room, garage, kennel or conservatory. Close curtains or blinds to keep the sun out, trees or an open sided canopy can provide shade without restricting the air flow. Because water evaporation is vital for body cooling provide several water bowls for young dog out of direct sunshine to keep the water cool in case one should get knocked over or emptied. RESCUING A DOG IN A HOT CAR If you see a dog in distress shut in a hot car, ask someone to stay with the car while you try to locate the owner. Make a note of the type, registration and colour of the car. If in a public place or a supermarket car park ask for an announcement to be made over the stores PA system. Breaking into a car to get the dog out could be classed as criminal damage unless you believe you have a lawful excuse because the owner would consent knowing the circumstances. If you see the dog is in danger of dying and must be rescued immediately, phone the police and tell them what you are doing so it is recorded. Take names and contacts of any witnesses and ask them to take photos or video the dog in the car and you gaining entry into the car. Take care when removing the dog from the car it may be scared and disorientated. Quickly follow the advice to treat heatstroke and wait for the dog`s owner and advise them to urgently take the dog to their vet in case of internal damage. RAISING AWARENESS Dogs can be affected by overheating and heatstroke in a variety of situations. When the weather heats up you must be especially careful and do everything you can to protect your German Shepherd because as you can see the body cooling system of a dog relies on certain conditions to be effective. Familiarising yourself and other dog owners with this knowledge could prove invaluable. GILL WARD M.I.A.C.E. Deutsche Schäferhundliga von Großbritannien

Jugend Soziale und emotionale Entwicklung Play biting Tolerance to touch Toilet training Puppy teeth Crate training Heatstroke Adolescence Nutrition Dogs and toys Dwarfism Dog friendly garden Christmas time Fireworks Time and space After investing many weeks socialising your baby puppy it can be quite a shock if at about 5 months old he suddenly reacts by backing away or barking at things. It can be ordinary things like bin bags, or people carrying shopping bags, or something as simple as a new plant pot in the garden which now needs a 10 metre detour to get past or seeing strangers really as strangers. Th hormonal changes which will be fluctuating wildly from this age are thought to be the cause for this wariness. Had there been any gaps in the early socialising and schooling or if the puppy showed any uncertainty in his temperament it will become much more apparent during the juvenile and adolescent development stages. Backing away or barking can be interpreted by worried owners as the pup being frightened or aggressive. In fact in most cases it is just the confused young dog using different behaviours for the same result, which is to keep the cause of his concern at a distance. Careful handling is required if your young dog shows spookiness, anything to avoid this behaviour becoming a habit. Trying times By 10 months old a German Shepherd looks physically like an adult but they are not mentally mature. A behaviour that may have been allowed such as the cute little puppy dragging the owner to greet every passer by or dog is now unacceptable. This is not a time for harsh punishment. The growing adolescent dog is not being wilfully naughty, he is being driven by complex hormonal and neural changes. Puppies with very sound temperaments and well socialise dearly on mature from puppies to adult dogs without any real problems, but most adolescent dogs will become more independent and interested in what is going on all around wanting to investigate different sights and scents. Maintaining focus and concentration can be difficult for the adolescent dog. If the attentive puppy seems to have forgotten all previously leant social skills and words especially come, now is the time to build on your relationship and communication with the young dog. Back to basics It is important to keep consistent and simple without introducing high demands. Short sessions concentrating on going over behaviours such as come , sit, down, wait, leave rewarding him well for responding as you want. Daily walks incorporating lots of play will help you compete for his attention which will be on every scent wafting his way. Make sure the play has some rules. If using a ball or tug he should drop it when told and not just grab it from you. Teaching him self control in a calm , patient way can help avoid undesirable behaviour caused by his exuberance in a variety of situations. Lead off switch off Before you take the lead off get him to sit and wait calmly. Avoid letting him run off as soon as the lead is removed as unclipping the lead becomes a signal to stop engaging with you. To keep the connection with your dog have a toy ready to develop the habit that when the lead is unclipped he immediately looks to you for a good game and fun activity. If his motivations food, quickly say his name in an upbeat tone and reward his attention with several treats before giving him permission to go off. Of course he needs some free time to explore and `Just be a dog` but don`t walk along thinking of tonight`s tea or worse still looking at your phone. Interact with your dog, randomly call him to you reward him and send him back off again, have some fun recalls, hide and call him to find you to strengthen coming back. Hide his toy and send him to find it, let him use his amazing scenting abilities. The more he engages with you the more he will ignore distractions. Including low - arousing activities which focus on mental stimulation such a scent training help to channel energy and calm an overactive young dog. Other dogs When on the lead some adolescent dogs start to bark or lunge at unfamiliar dogs. The cause often the combination of the young dog`s excitement and frustration at not being able to communicate properly with the other dog because of a tight lead and the owner unintentionally making the situation worse. Worried that their dog is being aggressive many owners now try to avoid other dogs and get anxious at the sight of an approaching dog so immediately tighten the lead, stiffen their body get very stressed, telling their dog to leave in an angry tone. In a split second will notice all the tension from the owner, look to see what caused it and see the other dog, now a negative association is being learnt escalating the dogs reactive behaviour, which the owner inadvertently has reinforced many times. This is quite a common scenario. Making changes Changing your reactions will help control or even change the problem behaviour. when taking your dog out be aware of your own anxiety and body signals, remain calm do not tense up and start jerking the lead at the sight of another dog. Be aware of your dogs body language, don`t wait for him to bark before re-directing his attention to you by giving a command or sound he responds to in a cheerful upbeat tone. Either walk briskly on keeping his attention on you or put him in a sit keeping a slack lead, tension on the lead encourages aggressive behaviour. A slack lead does not mean giving the dog the full length of the lead. Keep your arms relaxed and hold the lead close to the collar so that if needed you can quickly control the dog without a constant tight lead. If at any time the dog becomes over excited or anxious a simple but effective method of changing his emotional state is to change his body posture with firm slow strokes from his muzzle to his head, ears, hackles, returning his body posture to a more neutral position. This is not petting the dog. Although he needs practice walking past other dogs without reacting, his social skills with dogs must have a chance to develop with positive interactions with dogs of good temperament that will not hurt the enthusiastic adolescent who is still learning how to greet other dogs and can be a bit over the top, and clumsy and his very important appeasement signals need refining to avoid conflict. Some dogs are not as tolerant towards an adolescent dog as they would be towards a very young puppy. Forgive forgetting The natural process of growing up can bring a few annoying changes to the dogs general response and attitude. Owners can get frustrated and angry and over correct what they feel is disobedience. This will quickly break down the dogs trusting relationship with his owner. He may just have been distracted or excited and will not understand his owner`s aggression. Although it is important to establish rules and appropriate behaviour, enhance the relationship with your dog instead remaining calm and being patient as you guide and show him how to behave. Going forward Adolescence is a temporary phase and gradually you will notice he is quicker to respond to you and good behaviour becomes a habit as he matures into a sociable companion dog.

Expalnation of the Gold Medalbawards scheme WUSV/GSDL-BRG Goldmedaillen-Punkteauszeichnung Ein System innerhalb eines Systems – Die britische Goldmedaille würdigt Exponate, die im Laufe ihres Lebens herausragende Ausstellungsergebnisse bei regionalen Veranstaltungen und der britischen Siegermedaille erzielt haben. Die Punktevergabe erfolgt auf folgender Grundlage: VV1(VP1)-Klassen unter 12 Monaten = 1 Punkt SG1-Klassen 12–18 Monate und 18–24 Monate = 2 Punkte SG2-Klassen 12–18 Monate und 18–24 Monate = 1 Punkt SG1-Erwachsenenklasse = 4 Punkte SG2-Erwachsenenklasse = 2 Punkte V1 Arbeiterklasse = 5 Punkte V2 Arbeiterklasse = 4 Punkte VA Arbeiterklasse = 10 Punkte EIN AUSSTELLUNGSSTÜCK, DAS 25 PUNKTE ERHÄLT, WIRD MIT DER BRITISCHEN REGIONAL-GOLDMEDAILLE AUSGEZEICHNET. DIESE PUNKTE MÜSSEN ENTHALTEN SEIN mindestens 5 Punkte in der Erwachsenen- oder Arbeiterklasse erreicht mindestens ein Erwachsener SG1 auf einer regionalen Ausstellung mit mindestens 3 Exponaten, die in einer Klasse präsentiert werden. Wenn ein Hund im Vereinigten Königreich die erforderlichen 25 Punkte erreicht, aber in einer Klasse mit drei oder mehr Hunden kein SG1 für Erwachsene hat, dann wird ein V1-Sieg in einer Klasse mit drei oder mehr Hunden in der Klasse unter einem vom SV oder BRG zugelassenen Richter gewertet erlaubt. Es liegt in der Verantwortung des Eigentümers, den Preiskoordinator über einen solchen Gewinn zu informieren. Die jährlichen Auszeichnungen. - Jedes Jahr wird die Liste der Top-10-Exponate in den Kategorien Männlich Weiblich, Langmantel-Mann und Langmantel-Weiblich bekannt gegeben. Alle Ausstellungsstücke, die bis zum 31. Dezember mindestens 12 Monate alt sind, können in das jährliche Punkteprämienprogramm aufgenommen werden, das die zehn durchweg am besten platzierten Hunde auszeichnet. Um aufgenommen zu werden, muss ein Ausstellungsstück an mindestens einer regionalen Veranstaltung teilgenommen haben – die Teilnahme am British Sieger allein reicht nicht aus, obwohl beim British Sieger Punkte gesammelt werden können. Die Bewertung ist ebenso wichtig wie die Platzierung und ein Tier, das in einer Klasse Erster oder Zweiter ist, aber nicht die für sein Alter mögliche Bestnote erhält, erhält keine Punkte. Damit die endgültigen Punkte und Platzierungen bestätigt werden können, müssen die Ergebnisse der Gesundheitstests jedes Ausstellungsstücks den Anforderungen einer britischen Rasseuntersuchung oder von Korung genügen. Eigentümer haben bis zum 20. Februar des Folgejahres Zeit, die Ergebnisse der Gesundheitstests dem Prämienverwalter zur Überprüfung vorzulegen. Im Falle einer Berufung gegen ein Gesundheitstestergebnis, das bis zum 20. Februar nicht bestätigt wurde, wird das Originalergebnis zur Überprüfung herangezogen. Alle Ausstellungsstücke, für die bis zu diesem Datum keine zufriedenstellenden Gesundheitstestergebnisse bestätigt wurden, werden nicht in die endgültigen Listen für das Jahr aufgenommen. WUSV/GSDL-BRG-Zertifikat für Exzellenz Ein System im System – Um die Leistungen der Aussteller anzuerkennen, die als Erwachsener auf regionalen Messen regelmäßig die Bestnote erreichen, haben wir das Zertifikat für Exzellenz eingeführt.
