Synopsis

The latest in the Dogwise Classic series! The first scientific study from early in the 20th century to attempt to understand how to breed dogs, primarily German Shepherds, of superior intelligence, disposition, and physique for use in a wide variety of working dog capacities. This effort began the process - which is still evolving today - of better understanding how to breed for both the physical and temperament characteristics desired.
