Is a German Shepherd Puppy a good fit for Madurai?

Most homes in Madurai come with their own ground, so a medium-sized breed is comfortable in the space a town home usually offers. And since moisture in the air can encourage skin and ear issues if grooming slips, the daily routine ends up mattering more than the floor space. Stay current on tick and flea prevention, which thrive in warm, damp conditions.
