German Dog Commands
There are different reasons that Dog Trainers and Owners of Dog Breeds from German use the German Words to train and teach their dogs. Often it is because they do not want the average person, as in the USD, to know the words used so that the 'outsider' can not command the dog. It could be that someone has Imported a dog from Germany. Or while a person is in Germany, wants to test or 'try out' a dog that knows only the German Commands. Some Schutznhund Clubs use only the German Words/Commands. Other people just think it is KOOOOL that their dog knows the language from where the breed that their dog is, comes from. Some breeders/trainers might even sell dogs TO Germany... there are many reasons.
For those of you that would like to start training your own dog in it's "Native Tongue". Here are some of the commands used in dog training a GSD. Again, we have sorta alphabetized the list, more of sorting.
