Surprisingly, the White Swiss Shepherd was originally bred in Germany. Its progenitors were German Shepherds of a rare species that were white in color. It was first seen at the Hanoverian dog show in 1822. It was a white male named Greif.
The offspring of Greif is long involved in the breeding of this breed in Germany until the 30s of the 20th century. The aim of the breeders was to breed a working dog with ideal qualities and characteristics.
After the rise of the Nazis to power "white shepherds" fell into disfavor and were culled. Breeding work continued in the USA and Canada. The breed was registered in these countries in the 60s of the 20th century, and it was called the "American-Canadian White Sheepdog. In the 70s, these dogs were first introduced to Switzerland, which continued breeding. It worked to improve the characteristics of the species, both externally and psycho-emotionally, as well as intellectually.
The breed was registered in the Swiss Breed Book in 1991 and was recognized by the Federation Cynologique Internationale (FCI) in 2003, at which time it became known as the White Swiss Shepherd.
The White Swiss Shepherd is a medium-sized dog with well-developed musculature. It looks harmonious and graceful. Its distinctive feature is its long white coat.
This is a kind, gentle, cheerful dog. It is very devoted to its owner. Her character is calm and peaceful, but at the same time, she is very watchful and alert. This dog is very intelligent and trainable.
This breed was originally bred for service and guarding purposes, due to the rapid development of cities and the resulting increase in crime. It is used for similar purposes in the present day. It can also be used as a guide or rescue dog. It has the right qualities for police service. And undoubtedly, the white Swiss shepherd dog is a great companion, especially for those who like an active lifestyle.
Nowadays, you can find breeders of the White Swiss Shepherd all over Europe. But before getting one, you should familiarise yourself with the pros and cons of keeping one.

We lost ours of 15 years last year. Just now getting over it and contemplating getting another. She was our everything. Beautiful, loyal, protective, and knew exactly what everyone was feeling. She was always there for us.
I am getting a White Swiss Shepherd.I grew up with GSD's. I' found this breed by accident and I'm very happy that I did. I was lucky enough to find a breeder only 2 hours from me. I expect to bring my new pup home sometime this summer!! (2023)
I'm thinking about it 🤔 sounds perfect
I have a two year old. Best dog ever! She do sweet and smart. Does need exercise, loves fetching.
Where is the breeder?
@@alexp7842 Majestic White Shepherds, located in Charlottesville, NY. A new litter was born 3/15/23.
@@jerrybarnett-xl8hc Beau has been amazing and beautiful. He was 9 weeks old 3/24
They have great awareness, are smart and trainable. They are also demanding of your attention, and very, shall we say, 'Talkative'. They are beautiful and graceful to behold, and very affectionate and caring. We simply love her.
My White Shepherd is now 16 months. It's everything I hoped for. Because we walk a lot, he is also good for my health.
3 year 2 months old berger blanc suisse here and she is everything for me
How long can you leave it alone? I hav been wanting to got one, but work full days and am not at home for upto 7 hours a day.
@@emildurt5727then why would you want to get one? Use your brains.
Grew up with one, miss her terribly
I have two of them. Never another Breed ❤❤❤❤
Ein richtig gutes ausführliches Video es beschreibt so ziemlich genau dass was wir mit unserem Weißen Schweizer Schäferhund erleben. Und ja wir können alles bestätigen.
Weiter so. 😉
I like this breed, the White Swiss Shepherd. He is a good guard and family dogs, highly intelligent and versatile.
I WANT ONE SOOOOO BADDD
I had one back in the 70's. Never had to tell him twice not to do something.
Which US state are they most commonly found?
I'm planning to get a WGSD. I'm looking for some help understanding how to choose one.
Some Veteran said that American GSD will get hip and elbow dysplasia over age and pure bred GSD will not get the dysplasia over time. What do you say about this when it comes to WGSD ?
Is there a way we can understand the chances of dysplasia for a new born puppy ?
I found a back yard breeder who has couple of white puppies from the regular black and brown GSDs (Mom and Dad). I'm confused how two regular colored dogs get a white puppy. Any theory on this ? Can I go for it ? or should I go for a registered breeder for pure bred ? What makes the difference ?
I sincerely appreciate any suggestions and clarifications.
Thanks.
If both parents have recessive white genes then they can throw a white puppy or two in the litter.
best to steer clear of back yard breeders, often they don't have health clearances and have unethical practices. Also if they're claiming white came from brown/black they're not being truthful. White are basically a distinct breed descended from GSD.
100% go for a registered breeder. They can and should only breed dogs with negative or slightly positive medical tests.
They are a large breed not medium 😊
Medium/large some say when the dog is over 65cm it is large.
I got a Swiss shepherd, he’s a really smart dog, but he has a lot of energy, and is too excited when meeting new people, which can scare them. Does anyone who has this dog know what I should do to help his behavior?
It's great that you have a smart White Swiss Shepherd, but managing their high energy levels and overexcitement can be a challenge. Here are some tips to help with your dog's behavior:
Exercise and Mental Stimulation: Ensure your Swiss Shepherd gets enough physical exercise and mental stimulation. Long walks, playtime, and puzzle toys can help tire them out and channel their energy in a positive way.
Basic Obedience Training: Invest time in basic obedience training. Teach commands like sit, stay, and calm behavior. Consistent training can help your dog understand how to behave in different situations.
Socialization: Gradually expose your dog to various environments, people, and situations to improve their social skills. Controlled introductions to new people can help reduce overexcitement.
Desensitization: Work on desensitizing your dog to triggers that cause excitement. For example, practice calm behavior when guests arrive by rewarding them for staying calm and not jumping.
Reward Good Behavior: Positive reinforcement is crucial. Reward your dog for good behavior, whether it's being calm around guests or following commands. This encourages them to repeat the desired actions.
Redirect Energy: Provide toys or engage in activities that redirect your dog's energy. Interactive toys and games can be effective in keeping them occupied in a positive way.
Consistency is Key: Be consistent with your training and expectations. Dogs thrive on routine and consistency, so make sure everyone in the household is on the same page regarding rules and commands.
Seek Professional Help: If the behavior issues persist or worsen, consider consulting a professional dog trainer or behaviorist. They can provide personalized guidance based on your dog's specific needs.
Remember, patience is crucial in training any dog. With consistent effort and positive reinforcement, you can help your White Swiss Shepherd develop better behavior and become a well-mannered companion.
Are they the same with the white German?
No, the White Swiss Shepherd and the German Shepherd are not the same. They are distinct breeds with differences in coat color, origins, recognition, purpose, and temperament.
@@minanimalsso tell us the origin of the white swiss? rather then just pointing out they're not the same.
@@mel999. The White Swiss Shepherd Dog, also known as the Berger Blanc Suisse, is a breed that shares its origins with the German Shepherd. The history of the White Swiss Shepherd Dog can be traced back to the early 20th century when the German Shepherd breed was being developed in Germany.
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, there was a growing interest in developing a herding dog breed that could excel in various tasks such as herding, guarding, and serving as a versatile working dog. Captain Max von Stephanitz is credited with founding the German Shepherd breed in 1899, and his dog, Horand von Grafrath, is considered the first German Shepherd.
During the early stages of German Shepherd breeding, coat color was not a primary consideration, and the breed exhibited a variety of colors, including white. However, as the breed standard evolved, the focus shifted toward the traditional black and tan coloration.
In the mid-20th century, some breeders sought to preserve the white coat coloration in German Shepherds, and these dogs eventually became the foundation for the White Swiss Shepherd Dog. However, the breed's recognition as a separate entity took some time. Different kennel clubs and breed organizations had varying opinions on the acceptance of the white coat color.
In 1933, the Swiss Shepherd Club (Schweizer Schäferhunde Verein or SSV) officially recognized white-coated German Shepherds as a separate variety. The breed was then known as the White German Shepherd. Over time, breed enthusiasts in Switzerland and other countries continued to selectively breed white-coated dogs to develop the White Swiss Shepherd Dog as a distinct breed.
In 2011, the Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI), an international canine organization, officially recognized the White Swiss Shepherd Dog as a separate breed under the name Berger Blanc Suisse. Today, the breed is recognized by various kennel clubs around the world and is appreciated for its intelligence, versatility, and striking appearance. It's important to note that breed standards may vary slightly among different kennel clubs.
@@minanimals Yeah, so basically, they are German shepherds who had a name change.
genetically there are few differences between Swiss Shepherds and GSDs, but the AKC does not classify a white coat as an acceptable coat color, and their temperaments are different. GSDs are much more territorial and Swiss shepherds rarely show any signs of aggression. Swiss also don't have the iconic sloping back. Basically they are cousins. @@claire98
