Let's remember what this excellent breed was made for. The homeland of the ancestors of these dogs is the central and southern regions of Germany. First they were used to protect the herds on free grazing from predators. But industrialization led to a reduction in the number of livestock and gradually the animals, who turned out to be faithful and obedient pets, began to be involved in security activities, in the police and in the army service. Therefore, "militant" nicknames are quite suitable, both for dogs and for the female half of this breed.
