help..... i need advice on my two 8 month old german shepherd pups - Page 4

Alexis,

What are the parents of the pups she sold you?


 

Jersey, I already understood that you are not going to breed the dam, and that´s a good and responsible decision.
I tried to tell you, that there is more than health checks before breeding.
You should train your dogs, and you should study a lot of other dogs during training. This is the only way to learn about temperament and working abilities of your dogs.

Yikes Psycht are u kidding me a 20 percentile, im gonna have to look and see i haven't been on her site in a while but oh my gosh that is just UGHHHH i can't beleive this :(

the parents of my pups are
Sire: Beethoveen vom Majic fores
Dam" is Leoncini's Bella of the Ball

the breeder owns the father but i found out later on after the fact i got my pups that the mother wasn't hers;  I thought the female was hers because she posted on the site the mothers pic and the fathes pic and didn't say the mother wasn't hers at all. I also thought that she had a co owned home for the female and someone was raising the litter but no it was basically a wam bam thank u mem  kinda thing

Susie i am sorry i didn't know and realize you understand. I understand what you mean as well. Trust me when i tell you we all learn from our mistakes too and i know one thing i have learned badly and im tired of this happening so this isnt happening no more. I have reputable breeder friends that know me personally and are helping me from now and until this point. I also from now on am not getting a pup off line i am actually going there and picking the puppy out and seeing both of the parents and seeing everything and meeting the breeder as well rather than email and stuff.

5 minutes on the internet researching her breeding stock yielded more questions than answers.

I see a common thread of NO hip/elbow or any other health screens being done, and claims of "a1" hips...  on website and on this site..
Is that even possible.. since the "a1" dogs carry her kennel name?? 
Wouldn't OFA or better yet PennHip be more logical?


Also, lots of holes in hip/elbow status in the pedigree of breeding dogs..  yet again, "a1" hips declared..


The sire of your pups is "amazing, substantial and wonderful" ..  yet no pedigree link.. didn't finish the UKC champion... (only needs 1 more competition win)..But claims of "a1" hips again.....

I didn't go much further..  they aren't working/titling or even showing their own dogs...have no real "ownership" of the lines..
Nice pets..NOT foundation stock material..

Not sure what your recourse is at this point..  1900 is a LOT of money for a "nice pet"..  and that's what you got...


GSD is the #2 most popular breed in the USA (AKC registration numbers) so its pretty easy to throw a dart and hit a mediocre breeder..

You have some soul-searching to do now..  I'm not intending to mean mean in any way, just brutally honest..
Take a break from it all, and sit down with some paper..define to yourself EXACTLY what you think you want in a german shepherd dog..  what it IS that attracts you to the breed...define what your PERFECT dog might be...that's a good starting point..


 

Den Wolf i do understand what you are saying as well the poblem is tho it doesnt matter if 1900 is usually a pet price no the thing is i pad for her and the breeder and i both agreed on breeding terms so i bought her as for my first breeding female. It wasn't for a pet. That isn't why i bought her and there are plenty of people that can sell pet quality german shepherds for less than that not almot 2,000 Im sorry that just doens't cut I know what i want and i know the perfect german shepherd that i want. Like i mentioned above i know acouple breeders that are german shepherd breeders and they have helped me thru think and thin so im going with them NO ONE ELSE. i am also going there a picking my puppy out and seeing the pups for myself not have someone pick it for or have it shipped. The father has a pedigreea good one from what i heard the mothers which  i can post if you want to see it i don't know about that

i am trying to post pics but i don't remember how to do it on here. Can anyone help me post pictures or does anyone know how to do it

Next to the "youtube link"( which is under the BOLD, ITALIC, etc) you will see a box. It looks like a background with a hill and sun. Click on that.... it is the IMAGE link.
Then click on UPLOAD
The go to your BROWSER and choose the pictures you want.
Once you click on the picture you want click the SEND IT TO SERVER
In the "width" part put 500. Do NOT change anything else all the other setting will automatically adjust.
Then click OK.


Hope this helps..

This is my female german shepherd long coat, her ears are still very floppy the both of them sometimes they go up but other times they are down and stay
