The question is why are you taking this dog?
If you like her take her. Dog has good hips too.
However I would not incorporate her into any breeding program There are many of info missing especially on hips .It will be hard to know more about the dogs on the pedigree temperament and what they produced and about their littermates.
Art z Lipin was excellent worker but produced many bad hips.
There are many question marks and exclamation marks on the pedigree in order to breed this dog.
But she may be excellent companion. Who knows? Get her evaluated by experienced trainer before you take her so that you know what you getting your self into. Give her every benefit of a doubt.
She probably needs you:)
Good luck
I hope this helps.

Thats not a pedigree....lol
I agree the dog probably needs someone, maybe you maybe not.
I feel sorry for so many of them.

Moons, how is that not a pedigree? Granted, it's missing registration numbers and hip cert info, but it does show the familial lineage.
vacha1, I'll echo Prager's question as to why you are considering taking this dog--do you have a specific purpose in mind for her, or do you just happen to be thinking about adding a new pet to your household and she just happens to be no longer wanted by her present owner? A very important question, too, is WHY is your friend 'getting rid of her'? If she has behavioral or training problems, can you adequately handle them yourself, or with the help of a trainer?
The breeding behind her is primarily working line dogs--the "Yeulett's" prefix is that of Ruth Yeulett, a GSD breeder located in the British Columbia area of Canada. Do a Google search on her and you'll find more information on her, including how to contact her. She may well have even been the breeder of this particular dog, given her registered name (Yeulett's Elza 2nd)--and probably would want to know that the dog was looking for a new home, too.
She's an attractive bitch, for sure, though not in a 'pretty girl' sort of way, but rather as a strong, athletic female capable of doing a day's work moving livestock...If I were looking to adopt an adult female working line bitch and wasn't planning on breeding her, I'd certainly have to consider her enough to investigate why she's being rehomed...

Hi everyone, Thank you for your comments.
I went and seen her last night, she is absolutley gorgeous, pictures dont do her justice. She is a VERY high energy dog, and the ladies reasoning for not wanting her anymore is her energy level and she is not experienced enough to handle her or doesnt have interest in getting into any sports with her(shes pregnant)
So i brought her home, she will be a companion/working dog, my best friend is a dog trainer and we do tons of work with our dogs, schutzhund, agility, dock dogs,herding ect so she will definatly wear down some of that energy living with us.
Shes a little overweight(she was fed science diet) so that explains it all, she will now be fed a raw diet
and have plenty of excercise and love!!!
thanks again for your comments

vacha1, congratulations--sounds like you've got yourself one heck of a dog in this girl! Like I said, she comes from good stock, despite most folks being unfamiliar with the breeding behind her...I think you'll be pleasantly surprized if you do a bit of Googling on Ruth Yeulett and her dogs. The lack of titles in the pedigree is due to location (not a lot of Schutzhund going on in British Columbia) rather than a lack of suitability for the work. ;)
