We are excited to be welcoming a new pup this weekend. I've had numerous conversations with her breeder about what she hopes that the sire & dam will each bring to this litter, her breeding goals/philosophy, her knowledge of the sire & dam (both are handler owner trained), etc.
Here are the breeder's comments about my pup & each of the parents pedigrees:
Pup Comments [We are hoping to train the pup for Agility and possibly Schutzhund.]
We have made your puppy selection. I’m feeling very good about the placements. I just had your little girl out again to retest to be sure. She is active, loves people, outgoing, bold(not too bold), playful, but not over the top. She should be a fun pup for you and your son.
Sire -
Kanas Kenei van den Heuvel pedigree information - German shepherd dog
Dam -
Usa von Erzengel pedigree information - German shepherd dog
Knowing that a dog's potential is based on both their genetics and their environment/training, I am hoping that some on this forum will be willing to share their insights as to general bloodline tendencies to keep in mind as she grows and develops
For what its worth, I trust my breeder's comments & knowledge implicitly, but I am also the type that believes that the more that I know, the more perspectives that I gain, the better that I can bring out our pup's potential.
