I was surprised to find out that nearly one in every 3 people write out the word German Shepherd incorrectly, spelling them German Shepards rather. I'm shocked that this breed of dog is so commonly mistyped, and I'm even further amazed to learn that I write it like this for so loads of years.
I dislike spelling words mistakenly & I consistently aim to avert it. I am always careful to make sure that I am precise with my spelling, but like any individual, occasionally I simply slip up. The great news is that I have an effortless way to recall how to spell this breed of dog the right way.
Follow my simple procedure here & you will always recall that it is not German Shepards, rather shepherds.
Think back to why this kind of dog was created & perhaps you'll already figure it out. The German Shepherd was bred as a working canine, & it was only in the late 1890s that this breed came to existence.
Folks in Germany wanted a canine to help herd sheep. Remember the words herd and sheep now, and then reverse them. You don't think of the German Shepards (I am kidding) now as sheep herding canines, as they are routinely used by law enforcement to fight crime, in airports to find drugs, & in other places that depend on the dog's strong sense of smell.
This, however, is why they were bred, & remembering this will make it much easier to write the word correctly.
As long as you try to keep this in mind every time you spell out the word, I believe you'll get it right from here. Do not feel too badly about it because one in three people do write it wrong.
I hope this has been useful. Here's to some spelling triumphs down the line when it comes to this fantastic type of dog. - 29953
