German Shepherd Vs Wolf

Answer 3

Gray German Shepherd

Answer 4

Well, first of all it is unlikely that a lone wolf would approach knowing that a large German Shepherd is there. Wolves are shy and they avoid hard confrontations. Secondly even if a wolf encountered a German Shepherd if would be weary of pain. Wolves back off from the threat of pain but a German Shepherd doesn't back down in it's own territory or with its own herd. Third, a wolf has the advantage of longer and sharper teeth but the German Shepherd has jaw power and pain endurance beyond that of the wolf and would likely fight the wolf until the wolf ran away. People forget. The German Shepherd was bread to take on wolves and wolf packs and drive them away and they have been successful as a breed in this respect.

Answer 5

Gray wolves have longer and sharber teeth but a german shepherd would almost always win as they tend to be bigger and stronger, but its unfair to ask about a wild wolf against am untrained german shepherd, because a wolf has training to kill his whole life. So if you took a police dog and a wild wolf, well that poor wolf would get ripped to shreds by the power of the dog and endurance and fearlessness. Plus a wolf doesnt fight on his own because they are not strong as individuals and they themselves know that.

Answer 6

I'd have to go with a gray wolf. A standard sized German Shepherd is about 24-27 inches at the shoulder at 60-90 lbs, while a gray wolf can reach up to 36" in at shoulder and weigh well over 100 lbs. However, there are some breeders that breed large German Shepherds similar in size to the gray wolf. I'd guess that a large (30"+ 100 lbs +) German Shepherd that was trained for defense, could hold its own with a gray wolf. However, a large, untrained (housepet) German Shepherd would probably lose.

Answer 7

There aren't too many domestic dogs that could go one one one with a wild wolf - especially a healthy male north american or eurasian wolf. In the past different breeds of dog have been used to hunt and kill wolves, but usually the dogs worked in pairs or as a pack, or they were trained to simply trap or corner the wolf until the human hunters could kill it.
A German Shepherd wouldn't have much luck against said large healthy wolf. The reasons are varied - wolves always have much larger teeth than domestic dogs of equal or even greater size, and their jaws (with few exceptions) are much more powerful.
An attack trained German Shepherd's bite force was measured at about 230 pounds per sqare inch (this was on a program called "Bite force' on the National Geographic Channel not long ago), while a wolf's jaws have been estimated having jaw strength anywhere from 500 to 700 psi.
In some ways this would be like pitting a modern city dwelling man against a Neanderthal man in hand to hand combat - a civilized domesticated creature vs a wild, rugged being - a very unfair fight. (granted, modern humans and Neanderthals are not the same species but are very closely related)

Also, German Shepherds are not bred for fighting, but rather flock gaurding (and recently as police and service dogs). Huge fighting dogs such as the Tosa, the Presa Canario, and other related breeds would have the best chance of taking down a wolf in a fight, as well as some of the mastiff breeds used for gaurding.

Answer 8

In a sense, grey wolves and german shepards are the same species but yet different. A wolf and a dog can cross breed so, they are very closely related without a doubt. The wolf has somewhat of an advantage because it is a wild animal. Wild animals are more experienced fighters because they have to fight in order to survive. But technically, Wolves, Dogs, Dingos, and Coyotes are the same. Having a wolf fight a german shepard would be no different than a husky or doberman pincher vs. a german shepard.

Answer 9

My German Sheperd weights in around 100 lbs.

In a straight up fight, I'd give my dog, say, 20% chance against a wolf.

However, a dog is TRAINED and BRED to work together with the top predator in the world, humans. Thus they are not bred to single handedly deal with a threat. They are bred to work in unison with a human.

So, in their "natural environment" a dog would have a human at hand. And a fit human + dog would easily beat 2 wolves.

Or rather, the wolves wouldnt take the fight, so it's a moot point anyway.

Answer 10

A dog should be trained on how to eat, walk with you, not to bark, potty training and sleep on its place etc. You can teach anything to your puppy, dogs get trained easily with some good instructions. If you want some good training tips visit https://tr.im/gsrNo

If properly trained, they should also understand whistle and gesture equivalents for all the relevant commands, e.g. short whistle or finger raised sit, long whistle or flat hand lay down, and so on.

It's important that they also get gestures and whistles as voice may not be sufficient over long distances and under certain circumstances.
