Dutch Shepherd
Dutch Shepherds (40-75 pounds) are intelligent, energetic, and loyal, best for active, experienced owners. They’re good with kids when trained but may herd toddlers. High exercise (2+ hours daily, work or agility) is crucial; their short coat needs minimal brushing.
Feed 2-3 cups daily of Purina Pro Plan Performance Sport 30/20 Formula, with 30% protein for their active lifestyle and joint health. Monitor portions to maintain agility. Suited for both indoor and outdoor living with space, they’re not for apartments or inactive owners.
Training curbs protectiveness. Ideal for working roles or dynamic households, Dutch Shepherds thrive with challenges, not for first-timers or urban homes.
