People are going to ask you the following questions: What kind of GSD do you want? Do you want German showlines, German working lines, whites, American? What do you want to do with the dog? Agility, conformation, Shutzhund, obedience, family companion? If you're getting a puppy, do you work? Is someone going to be home? Would it be better to adopt an older dog? Have you done research on the breed?
Just some things to consider.

I got nothing to do for about a year and I was thinking of getting a pup,I have bin researching the breed for about three months now,I want to get a GSD for a hiking/walking buddy and give it obedience training and as family companion.I myself am home for almost all the time other then going to the store and my neighbor who lives right next door owns 2 labs.I'd rather have a pup because im home and I can start housebreaking it and start the obedience training but right now im working at home for about the next year and I got time.I would like a german working line.(ya Im new to all this but I have had dogs in the past like labs and and a husky when I was younger but I just love the GSD,I heard lots of nice things about them)

I'm in CT, there aren't that many stupendous breeders here in the state that I would recommend anyhow.
In MA, I would recommend ryanhaus or Miles River,(I think that's where Brady came from?) if you google the names, I'm sure you'll come up with websites and contacts.

I don't know anything about this breeder, but I remembered coming across their website when just browsing when I was bored. I think I remembered reading that a member here had a dog from this breeder. They breed west german showlines.
I'm not recommending or not recommending since I don't know anything about their program... just throwing their name out there. Connecticut German Shepherd Dog Breeder

Thanks for sharing the ryanhaus one they might be a breeder I will be interested in. They have had 3 litters from the same sire as mine. I don't think any of my dog's problems came from him and her dam is the issue. I'd get a half sibling to mine in a heartbeat. I was extremely impressed with his lines which was why I got her. Too bad she has orthopedic issues. She looks like her daddy.

Have you considered a rescue or shelter? There are GSD rescues and more than likely they will have puppies.
