I'm researching blood lines for my next GSD. I did not do this with my first dog and I won't be making that mistake again. She was a great dog but had health problems and I wouldn't describe her as a dog with nerves of steal. I loved her anyway but that come with challenges. It's my...

I’ve scoured threads and different articles and have come to the conclusion that people’s opinions about what ‘qualifies’ as a specific shade of sable are VAST. Especially when you start getting into how black a dog’s coat needs to be before it’s considered a ‘black sable’. I am trying to figure...

Hi. I have been wanting to get a German Shepherd from a solid, reputable and respected breeder for a little while. And now, after doing some research for the last couple of months, I have narrowed it down to a few breeders; I’ve talked to all but one of them so far and have already discussed...

We are thinking about adding a male working line puppy to our family. We currently have one 4.5 yr old female working line from the same breeder and she's incredible. She's at the point where she's well-behaved and easy. Our main concern is that our relationship with the first one will...

I am trying to learn how to read and understand my pup’s pedigree. I understand the titles (mostly lol) and the basics of reading the the pedigree/family tree chart. However, I don’t understand line breeding or how to 100% conclude which line (west german/ddr/Czech/ etc) a pup is from. I can’t...

Hi everyone, I have inquired and started some discussions about working dogs, breeders and sport dogs a year ago here and one year later, still no puppy. This covid situation has made it difficult to visit breeders and finding the best moment to pull the trigger but here I am once again trying...

Hello everyone! I landed on this forum because I am planning in advance the purchase of a working line German Shepherd. It is not something that will happen soon, but I prefer to start informing myself well in advance to keep under control the work of the breeders I am selecting. I fell in love...

Hi Everyone, I’m fairly new to this forum and come from a country (Malaysia) where good breeders are present, but mostly do imports and purchases of pregnant bitches for sale.

Hi everyone, I'm hopefully getting a working line pup from a reputable breeder this spring and I want to get into sport right away. There are a couple of IPO clubs near me that I'm looking at but I was also wondering if I should do puppy class before. I can do basic obedience myself but with a...

Good morning. I am new to the forum and currently searching out prospective breeders for my next dog. I am not new to dog owning, and have trained and cared for many German shepherds, as I have owned 4 dogs and worked at an animal shelter. I would say that my last dog, a German shorthaired...

Hello everyone! Very happy to be a part of this awesome community... we are Brian & Haley - and currently, we're looking for a GSD pup :) That said, we're more on the 'relaxed' side, and don't want a GSD that will be very destructive, or super high energy. Now, I understand FULLY that GSD...
