As someone who has trained GS’s for many years in a career I cannot imagine how many takes this took. This pic is well known and many agencies talked of recreating it but I don’t know of any who did. And this was not an exam but basically testing for obedience around distractions. We all do/did it but not necessarily with cats. Horse Mounted unit helped me with this as well as other personal pets of other employees.
*many cats were harmed in the process
Cat be like ‘ wtf ,from when I have become so strong ‘
I’ve had to train my German Shepherd to be calm around cats too. Before when she say them she would freeze and have all her hackles up. She is much more calm now though
How many cats do you go through to get to this picture?
Calm. But EXTREMELY FOCUSED.
You’ll do what I say, when I say it, or I’ll make your life hard. Do you understand that?
Least stolen post on Reddit:
cat: mofos try to move now
Wonder why that cat doesn’t have a tail
Number 3 did it best
That cat was not paid enough.
That cat needs a trailer for its balls.
I may be wrong but I think this pic is from the Monks of New Skete, famous for their GSD’s.
Can we all just appreciate the CAT in this photo???
Dogs : “Hey… a singular fluffy cat…mine…?”
Cat: “Hey…a bunch of sharp toothed canines staring at me….meow?”
Calm cat

Fourth from the right is leaning waaaaay forward. He cant take much more!
Those dogs were definitely raised with that cat, the real trick is finding a cat that would put up with so many GSD puppies.
Training for German police cat to remain calm when faced with 20 shepherd dogs haha
They forgot to put a Yamaka on the cat’s head. That was just a regular cat. No need to pursue

I like how one isn’t even looking at the cat. Guessing looking for it’s owner to give the command for release?
So much angst in this picture. Haha
