I could really use an educated opinion or two. Our family will be adding another shepherd in a few months, and so far have been talking with several local breeders. Two really stand out. Both seem responsible, and do the health checks and give health guarantees. So on that end both seem to be a wash. We will be going next week to meet one of the breeders and see her dogs. We can meet the other by appointment.
Really what I need is someone who is good at evaluating pedigrees to look at the pairings and tell me which ones they think look the best... I am not sure about protocol here and do not want to post pairings up on an open forum. So if anyone is willing to help, I will IM the pedigree database info of the pairings... I would really appreciate it... this and this are the breeders that I am leaning towards. Last edited by BR870; 08-12-2011 at 02:52 PM. |

I can suggest you pm Cliff and/or Carmen,,they'll tell it like it is.
I know Abbie just had elbow surgery, I would be concerned that a puppy may be to much for her recupperation, so just be aware that puppies can cause alot of chaos especially to a dog recovering from surgery..

The links you provide tell me absolutely nothing about the dogs and even less about the breeders .

Sticking some well known German kennel name on a dog born in the US out of untitled parents turns me off pretty quickly. Using a dog for stud with a "borrowed" kennel name and no credentials compounds it....doing it over and over ..... just what makes the shelters full of BY bred dogs....
there is only one kennel that shows up in your links... lee

a friend of mine is in louisiana, she rarely posts here, I'll give her a ring and ask her the breeder she got her male from, he's gorgeous and a really nice dog, not sure what she's doing with him , he's still young..
