Question: are german shepherds hard to potty train?
Answer: Potty training a German Shepherd puppy doesn't need to be stressful. ... One downside of owners taking pups at 6 or 8 weeks is they never learn from mom to 'do their business outside'. But it's not a train smash, it's just up to you to teach your new German Shepherd puppy where the appropriate place is to relieve herself.
