Breeders in or near San Diego

[Als]

Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a reputable breeder in or near San Diego, if anyone knows one I would be greatly appreciative. Looking for a good family dog, not looking to show or breed, just to have from day one till the end of his time. Got two boys that loved our last dog and lots have changed since I bought him 9 years ago, but we enjoyed his company till his last day.

What is your price range?

What lines?

How about Grunenfeld? Their dogs look nice. I also know someone who is very pleased with their West Coast German Shepherd pup.

no more than $1500, we last had a black and tan, great dog but he was from a byb, and I paid $1000 for him in Hawaii in 2003, not much selection there, and not much knowlegde on dogs since he was our first and only dog, very protective we we liked that and good with our boys, but there is so selections in the states, obviously we want a puppy male I looked at grunenfeld and we live probably an hour from that place, but the internet can always look too good to be true, so just want a dog that will live his whole term, my last dog developed mega esophogus or something like that, was so hard to feed him and he started dropping weight like crazy, until he eventually stopped eating and alway throwing up, they told us it was genetics, i don't want to through that again, it has been so hard on our family since his passing, a few days ago

I know of someone who got their puppy from them and are very happy.

I'm sorry for your loss. Mega-e is a horrible disease and it is genetic. Good luck in your search and we're looking forward to seeing pics of your puppy once you pick him.

I don't know how close this breeder is to you, but you could take a look at her website.
I have a dog from her, and have had personal experience with a couple more.....so I can (in good faith) totally recommend her and her dogs.

Thinschmidt German Shepherds and Lundborg Land German Shepherds have very nice dogs, I've trained with Thinschmidt and had a dog from Lundborg Land and was very happy, they breed WGSL dogs and both show .
