Care Tips for Gerberian Shepskys

Tip #1

Extensive Exercise: These high-energy dogs need 90+ minutes of vigorous exercise daily. They excel at hiking, running, and dog sports. Without adequate activity, they become destructive.

Tip #2

Mental Stimulation: Both parent breeds are highly intelligent. Provide puzzle toys, training sessions, and jobs to do. Boredom leads to escape attempts and destructive behavior.

Tip #3

Double Coat Maintenance: Their thick double coat requires brushing 3-4 times weekly, daily during heavy shedding seasons. They 'blow' their coat twice yearly.
