Can anyone tell me about this breeding? And is it worth $3000 dollars and can I trust this breeder, since 5 years ago I got screwed with Bill Fleischerheim breeder, what I mean by screwed? paid high price for the pup "expecting" something superb quality and it was disappointment. I am looking for nice show line with breeding prospect!

Sire: 2X VA1 Remo vom Fichtenschlag X Dam: IPO1 Holi ze Skalnego Wzgorza

puppies are always an unknown risk, if you want a show quality dog it is much better to purchase a dog at least 6 months old, plus a price of 3000 dollars for a puppy, I do not know why people pay that much

you are paying to say you have a remo son. You dont know what the mother produces. I wouldnt pay more than 1500-1800 for this

Even with a Remo as a sire, I would not be spending $3000 on a 2 month old puppy. If this was a 5-6 months old dog I would definitely go for it.
Puppies are crap shot - $3000 for a puppy would be too much for me. Can't comment anything about this breeder as I do not know them.
Havidad gave a decent price point on this one.....

Way too much...
Do Acelin kennels breed by themselves or do they import?
The Polish kennel Skalnego Wzgorza shows almost the same dams on their website?

Are you paying for the dog, or the pedigree? What are you planning to do with the pup?
    I think that is an awful lot of tight line breeding going on there, and I would be real careful on any breeding plans down the road, just my opinion on that.
    As far as the price, the dog is worth what ever you want to spend for a pup. I just recently seen a real nice titled female for 6000. 
Also, just as a side thought, have you checked out what Bullinger  Shepherds have? Tracey has some aawesome dogs, and she is very devoted to the breed.
     I got my showline male from her years ago, sight unseen, and have never regretted my decision.

Shtal, nobody is able to sell a "breedworthy" puppy, no matter how expensive....
I don´t know you, but I don´t think you would send a puppy back, in case a tooth is missing or the hips are not good enough for training and showing.
That said, you don´t need to pay for any kind of "guarantee", cause you won´t make use of it.
There are several breeders in the States breeding very good showline dogs.
I´d go with a small breeder, training, titling, and showing his own stock - but that´s me...

I have personal experience with this kennel and would be willing to talk privately. I own a Remo son from Acelin kennel.

I agree with the above, that's way too much for a 2 month old pup, alot can fall apart with them by maturity.
