Opinion on Prospective Import from our local experts. - Page 2

And there are guys claiming to be breeders who just throw two gsd into a pen, leave them for days, with no supervision. What a terrible demise for a dog.

Wingertshaus, thank you for sharing that information on Paska.  That type of injury isn't as common in dogs as it is in cattle, but it certainly does happen; and in either case it is awful when it occurs, and too often ends as it did with Paska...poor fellow.

I'm sure Hans would have the perfect dog for the OP and I wouldn't be at all surprised to learn that he or she has already been contacted by more than one breeder who also has perfect dogs for sale.  Advising the OP to train his or her current dog before buying another is not rhetoric or bumper sticker material. It's common sense.

In a  week or two Ill be starting formal training with my current dog, but I do have interest in this Schwarzen Bhagiro mating. My current dog ( quite a big girl for her age ) is eagerly waiting to harness up, and head out to the park to burn up some of that youthful energy.

 That is what I meant when I say bumper sticker material. Just "common sense". You are so bend on disagreeing with me that you even disagree  with me when you agree. LOL !!!  Common sense , bumper sticker , rhetoric same old  boring  cliché stuff while you are missing valuable advice to the poster about the pedigree and the pup the OP is asking about.  Or maybe you just do not know any factual non moralizing advice non PC advice??  Most of the advices I see there are bunch of moralizing PC bumper stickers. And not much good factual  advice on a pup or it's ancestry which is what   the OP would like to get. Advices like :  get one from US , train one you already have in directed formal training, don't get ripped off, train one  you have  to becoming a good canine citizen before considering taking on another one,..... all that PC moralizing diarrhea, while missing the fact the the mother is Fast Normal and the concerns which OGBS stated like short lived sire and so on. 

It seems that some must advice even so try have nothing  of substance to offer.

Mithuna,

you do not need to justify to the PDB PC police what you will do and why. Just go, do your research   on a pup, parents and their progeny  as you are doing and if you like it - buy it. Be it in Geramny or US. Don't you ever get anybody scare you with PC moralizing from what you want to do and love. .And enjoy your new puppy.  Good luck. 

Nice looking dog BTW! I love those markings! :)

Maybe all of the posters besides you think about the former threads of the OP. As long as the OP doesn´t learn how to handle his current dog, all of us will advise him against buying a second dog - and that´s called "common sense".

Besides that, you are the one who said he doesn´t believe in OFA/SV hip ratings at all ( I´m too lazy to search the old thread, you know what I´m talking about ). And the "early" death of the male seems to be clear now...

As long as we're being real, Hans, tell me- did you pm the OP and offer one of your dogs? Honestly?

I've imported some very very nice pups, and some just okay ones. The very very nice pups are now very very nice adults and I couldn't be happier with them.  I would absolutely recommend the breeders.  I keep in touch with them from time to time. But I do get jealous of the State side comraderie some have with their breeder.

With the pedigree you posted, looks like you will get pretty black, V to SG structured, good prey and social pup.

Hans, perhaps your misreading of the responses is due to your not having read the OP's previous posts--he's got a very strong, naturally civil young dog who has already bitten a stranger while she was being exercised off-lead...and was having trouble finding a trainer and/or basic obedience class to work with that wouldn't have a negative impact on his plans to make her a personal protection dog. THAT'S why everyone was suggesting he get his present girl in hand before adding a puppy to the mix, and at least to me, it wouldn't matter WHAT the breeding was of any pup he was interested in right now--I STILL would feel that the last thing he needs, as a novice handler, is to add another  puppy to his plate at the moment. 

You may think differently, and that's your prerogative--but you'd be wrong in this instance.
