Hi there, this dog might be available for sale, I have personally seen him
Work and liked him very much! Just looking for people's opinions good or bad on him, offspring, or pedigree?

Cannot find any mention of any health testing online
Cannot find any mention of any progeny online
Found photos of him, very nice pigment bi-color, nice head. Cannot accurately tell about body structure because I did not find any body shots of him while he was standing still.
Very nice German workingline pedigree, I like the fact that he has no linebreeding in 5-generations.
If you intend to purchase this male for breeding purposes then you may want to insist on seeing health tests first (minimum hips and elbow scores, perhaps DM also)
Because there is no mention of any offspring you may also want to insist on seeing a vet's sperm count/motility/quality exam too.

Thank you very much euro shepherd, I have spoke with the owner and he has hip certification and dm done already!
But I will talk to her about the sperm count, I have taken a lot of pictures of him from the seminar we just had I will try to find a picture of him standing still and post it

I also like the fact that he is not over sized he is perfect for working, my guess is he's around 75 pounds

Based on paper, I'd consider looking at the dog, which you have. You know the female. Did you cross your fingers and blow on the dice?

Sorry, vacha, didn't mean to hijack your thread.
On topic, the bloodlines are certainly respectable, and it is nice to see such an 'open' pedigree as far as linebreeding goes... Does this fellow have a conformation rating? I realize he can't get breed surveyed on the Ring title...just curious regarding an 'official' commentary on his structure. Certainly is an attractive dog. Are you considering buying him for use with your own female(s), or to offer at stud for others?
