Default working line breeders?

hi everyone,
new to the forum but been lurking the past couple of months..

im interested in a working line gsd. specifically DDR/east bloodlines. after searching for just a GSD in general i came across the DDR/east bloodlines which i really liked from the looks, color, head size, etc.. the the dog will be more for home/family/personal protection and outdoor activities. so a dog with medium drive and willingness to play ball/fetch but also be calm when need be would be nice..

i actually just talked to cindy from truehaus and was nice to speak with her reguarding there dogs. in which i found out there current dogs are mainly west gerrman lines but have the ddr looks.. she did say "tommy" had some ddr bloodline like 3 generations back. i am planing taking a trip to visit truehaus either this week or next to see the dogs and trianing sessions.i live about 2 1/2 hrs from truehaus in the bay area..


what do you guys think about there current breeding pairs/ bloodlines? are there lines more like 90% west/ 10% east? i was trying to search bloodlines but its pretty hard. also any other kennels/breeders you recommend? i did see von banach in washington.


thanks for the help..

I got my last pup from True Haus this year, my first WL puppy. He is out of Tommy and Cat.

I'm working with Jaxon in PSA right now and everybody loves him. He's got tremendous amount of focus and drive yet he is not and never has been overwhelming in the house. He can calm down and is easy to live with - gets along with all the animals and people. Incredibly smart too. He's not afraid of a thing (except little hissing kittens - go figure LOL)

I wish I could have gone out there, but after hearing such possitive reviews and talking to others who had gotten a dog from them (we all keep up with one another on FB to brag. ) however they picked him out for me and shipped him to me in Texas and I'm more than satisfied with my boy. They are good people.

I'd post some pics but he looks like a gangly coyote right now. xD And of course, if you have any questions I'd be happy to help.

I can speak only the best things about Julie (vom Banach) and highly recommend her. I have a vom Banach dog, Anton, he's almost four, and he's the dog of my life.

Do research the DDR dogs, though. They may look like big teddy bears but have a very strong will and demand respect.

I believe some of their females go back to a Jen-Agers bitch, a Lord granddaughter. So there is some DDR in there, and a bit of the look is still there, but the True Haus dogs I've seen all have tremendous prey drive. They are good people, too, who stand by their dogs.

Sequoyahhaus has some DDR dogs, not many, mostly Czech but some DDR, all working lines however. She is in TN, so the pup would have to fly.... this is just an option!

Im so **** scared to recommend a breeder. Just recently recommended another breeder and that breeder had issues with the buyer who was a nutcase.

I can recommend two breeders that I have personally dealt with.
1) www.justk9s.com
2) www.gildafk9.com

Both breeders have some nice dogs and are good people to work with.
There are also a few really good breeders of WL GSD on this forum.....perhaps you could contact them as well?...
I'm sure that Chris, Sue, Christine, Carmen, Cliff, Chuck and a couple of others have good dogs that would fit your requirements. *(sorry if I forgot anyone...it is not intentional)*.
Best Wishes!

I believe Kim at justk9s has 2 puppies available that are full DDR and she is located in California. Like what Oksana said, you should Really do your research on the DDR lines so you know what you are in for and if that's what will fit your lifestyle.
