German Shepards need structure and proper training.
This poor dog is abused thru neglect and stupidity of the owners.
You are absolutely correct-I’ve owned 2 female German Shepherds, neither one ever bit a guest or family member, but they were always on guard duty when strangers were present or the doorbell rang. The first one we had attached herself to our then 3 year-old cub and watched over her, standing between her and easily opened doors, chairs, etc, but was always gentle. She never stopped guarding that kid . The dogs were always included in family activities, trips, etc-they do require attention and need a job to do so they are not bored. I love the breed, but like so many large breed working dogs, their lives are too short at a max 13 years or so. FJB does not deserve to have a fine working dog like that-or any dog for that matter..
