You are all right, I don't want a pup with temperament problems. I don't think the sire has issues though, he just never sired before and didn't know what to do for the sound of the breeder and the other breeder that recommended him in the first place. This was his first go. I do know that he was put with another female to breed that is registered and she was very aggressive and beat him up pretty good. She wasn't having any part of him and he didn't take charge. That is why this breeder had to get help from the other breeder. The sire had to have help I guess.
He is a very nice dog from what I have seen and when I have been around him. He is very good with my two kids.

Honestly this concerns me about the breeder. You say they are experienced, but what does that mean? Has this dog been trained and worked and tested? Maybe I need to use my line...I've brushed my teeth for 26 years but it doesn't make me a dentist.

I don't know any experienced breeders that would throw their stud male in with an aggressive female for breeding. Males can really be injured during breeding, not just if the female is aggressive but if they don't stay still for the tie. What you describe sounds very inexperienced and... "backyard".

Hi, I belong to the German Shepherd Club of Oklahoma. I know a couple of reputable breeders in our club with American showlines and working lines that you could contact.

I'll send you a PM and you can check the them out and see if you are interested.

I have to agree with everyone, run far far away! At least do yourself a favor and check out other breeders. This throws up way to many red flags indeed.

I did a little search and yes it was deleted

 

[bocron]

sounds like they....

...bred dogs they can't register

...bred a dog against standard (coated)

To go off in another direction here, I thought the SV had revised the standard to allow registration of long coated dogs as long as they have an undercoat.

You're right, the SV does allow breeding longcoats but only to other longcoats.

I agree with everyone here and would definitely stay away from that breeder. Here is the link to the North Texas GSD Rescue - North Texas German Shepherd Rescue, Inc. I think that might be a good place to start off. Also, there are several good breeders in the North Texas area..I'm not sure how far you're willing to drive, but there are several threads in the 'Choosing A Breeder' category that have excellent suggestions in your area.

Also check out Good Shepherd Rescue of North Texas. I can't seem to get their website to pull up right now, but they're on Petfinder.
