How much? - Page 2

"Price really won't be an issue". Oh, pardon me then.  Here I am imagining I'm reading a thread, started by you,  titled "How Much?". I must really be losing my mind. 

Nadeem, that was a good deal- partly because of who he knew, so you're dead on about looking for good deals. Who you know can be crucial when trying to import GOOD dogs...not just titled dogs. 

lol Jenni....I would like to know "how much"......Price isn't an issue if I'm looking to find exactly what I want.  I just mean I'll pay what it takes, that's all.  But hey.....it's good to know you've admitted to losing your mind.....You're past the denial stage :)  

6-8 grand

You need to concentrate on finding the right PERSON to get a dog from, not the right price, when just starting out. If buying overseas, you'll need to convince them that you're somehow different than every other American know-it-all wanting to breed GSDs and see if you can avoid being ripped off...especially if you present with an attiude of "price isn't an issue."  

Jenni, I wouldn't go over there saying that lol. That's the quickest way to get screwed no matter what you want to buy.  That's why I asked if anyone had gone to the Czech or Germany to buy a dog......I did get a PM from someone about a reputable person to go through.  Regardless of being reputable or not, I will want to see the dog work in person. Ah, I totally did not think of this.......There is someone that use to go to church where I go.....They're related (I won't mention this woman's name) to a trainer/breeder near here who has competed in the WUSV with one of her dogs, and she goes to Germany at times (people who want a dog pay for her trip over there) to see the dogs, and bring them back for different people.  I may need to talk to her as well.

Baretta9, I think the OP is looking for a dog titled in sport. --H&Kp2000

Only out of curiosity: You are proud owner and breeder of Huskies; if I understood right, Auggie is your first German shepherd. Are you looking for a female suitable for breeding to Auggie?

Start breeding by training and titling your young male, the more you learn about training and behavior of German shepherds, the less is the possibilty to fail in the decision what kind of dog you are going to buy later on.

You should be able to buy a workingline female SchH1, KKL2, hips and elbows okay, for about 3000 Euros in Germany.

My piece of advice: Come over here for vacation, good old Germany isn´t that bad, and there are clubs everywhere. most of the people speak English, and you don´t need to pay extra money for a broker and for shipping.

Kind regards,
Susie
