Expert Answer

A German Shepherd’s bite force exceeds 90 kg, about twice that of a human, though not especially strong compared with many fierce dogs. Its main strengths are deep loyalty, high obedience, strong endurance and explosive power, plus top-tier intelligence among breeds, making it ideal to train as a police, drug-detection, military or guard dog.

But German Shepherds are quite alert and emotionally sensitive with some aggression, so they are less suitable as family pets.
