Hello! New to the forum, not new to german shepherds. Our white german shepherd, schatzi, passed away not too long ago, at 11 years of age. We are looking to get another white shepherd, but are having a hard time finding one. A couple of very reputable breeders that I'm familiar with (hollybrook kennels and foxhunt shepherds) won't have any puppies ready until summer, and I'm not even guaranteed one because they have so many reservations already. I'd like to get one in the next few weeks. Found a few breeders, but none seem to have what I'm looking for. I was referred to Halo white shepherds in vidalia, ga (about 5 hours from me), and they do have a female puppy available. Anyone dealt with these folks before? I called and spoke to the owner, and she is very nice. I just can't find much about them on the Internet, and i did a search on this forum. still no luck. I thought maybe y'all could help me out. Thanks!

White GSDs are so beautiful. I don't know about the Halo breeder. But is I were you, I would ask the OFA hip ratings of the parents and if the parentage was cleared for DM. You may also want to look into rescue.

Ve-Lin's Hoofprint Victorious White Shepherds Foxhunt (even if you have to wait a little bit) Visit the AWSA and WGSDCA websites - lots of breeders listed so you can compare to Halo. |

I would never go to any breeder who is purposefully breeding out of standard (blue, liver) and poor pigment (black and "silver") dogs. If they aren't following the standard there, what else are they not following. If they're concentrating on color as their top priority/advertisement, they aren't concentrating on health and temperament.
