Any tips/advise for raising a labrador/German Shepherd cross pup?

Puppies need lots of love and attention. Whatever you him you will receive 10 times the reward in return in the form of love he'll give you.

Well, true different breeds have different personalities. But temperment is really not the maint hing when it comes to raising a dog, especially with a GSD lab mix which is two breeds who are not known to express any real problems that have to be worked around as far as temperment goes. I suppose the only realt hing temperment would affect is obediance training since both breeds are very smart and loyal and tend to pick up on commands well.

So what you're going to need to do when you raise a dog is:

Socialize: Nothing ruins walks and trips to the dog park faster than an undersocialized dog. If you have the dog as a puppy (I didn't get my shelter border collie as a puppy and she came to me undersocialized. Pain int he butt during walks and encounters with other dogs) socialization will be soooo much easier. Just get her around other other people and dogs let her play. Puppies aren't born undersocialized. If she's no longer a puppy still try to get her around other dogs, let her watch through the fence of the dog park to see how other dogs interact and give her treats when she's nic eto other dogs.

Exercise: Here's where the breed matters a little. Labs and GSDs are both pretty high energy dogs and need a good,hearty walk, at least one a day. Two is the ideal.

Play: Never underestimate the power of play.Just as all kids need playtime, all dogs need the same. IT alsp makes for good work outs. Toss a ball, tug of war, play with a stuffed animal, wrestle or if you want try this: put the dogs fave toy in a shoebox and let it chase the box around and figure out how to get the toy. Great entertainment. My dog loves it. Start double boxing when htey start cracking hte code too fast.

Training: You get the idea. Basic training like sit, stay, come, down, etc. YOu may also start tricks alter. Like bow, jump, etc.

That's all the basics there. Sooooo have fun and good luck!

potty train: have a routine, bring them out side to one spot on the leash, and let them go to the bathroom every hour or so. after a few months or when ever you think your pooch is ready let it go by its self and see how it does. praise it when it goes where its supposed to with a treat and scold it (shout at it) if it does wrong. but you have to commit! this trained my cousins dog!

and play with them when they want to play and walk them! this dog should be very active considering the characteristics of a shepherd and a lab! also give them a lot of love and affection! hope you have fun with your puppy! good luck!

Set boundaries, get the pup plenty of exercise, exposure/socialization.. Finally let the dog be apart of your life. I have seen he lab/shepherd mixes be some of the smartest dogs anywhere. Good luck.

Among the many important responsibilities dog owners have, training a dog is among the most important. Learn here https://tr.im/xSjHF

Well-trained pets are easier to care for and love, cause less damage to your home (and theirs), and live happier lives.

Dogs send myriad messages with their bodies and their voices -- this is one reason why they're so fascinating and beloved. The more you understand their messages, the more you understand them and how your own messages are being understood.

just remember you are going to need to be willing to play a lot! Also, this should be a great dog, both loyal and easily trainable.

it is just the same there if you had previously a small dog give more space for this one

same as any other dog

you train, socialize, exercise and take to vet

Why would you think that they'd be raised any different than any other pup?
