The German Shepherd Dog originated in 1899 at Karlsruhe, Germany due to the efforts of Captain Max von Stephanitz and others. Derived from the old breeds of herding and farm dogs, the first German Shepherd Dog exhibited in America was in 1907. The fame associated with Rin-Tin-Tin and Strongheart, two members of the breed whose movies played on variations of the boy and his dog theme, shot the popularity of the breed sky-high.  (Source: American Kennel Club)

I found the dog tag art custom tag creator very easy to use. I like that I can crop and move the image to fit just right on the tag. It only took me a few minutes to create a lovely tag. I think this is a great addition to a great website!  -Katie Wing
