Neither one. Sentence should read:

a.) Mrs. Stevens and I walked her German Shepherd dog.

or

b.) Mrs. Stevens and I walked her German Shepherd. (A German Shepherd is a dog and therefore the phrase becomes redundant or a pleonasm.

The Second. Whoever said the first because shepherd is not a proper noun is wrong because in this context it is used as a name of a dog breed, which is proper. German Shepherd should be as is. However, neither of the sentences is correct because the second would be correct if dog wasn't capitalized. They are both wrong.

Neither, It should be "Mrs. Stevens and I walked her German Shepherd.". The word "dog isn't necessary.

The first sentence is correct. shepherd is not a proper noun.

neither. Both "German" and "Shepherd" require capitals, but "dog" doesn't.

2nd one, i believe, because although "shepherd" may not be a proper noun, in the context it is.
