do it privately by pming....never post anything personal on this forum unless you want to stay up all night answering phone calls from jerks and trolls and perverts...
do it by email so you have a trail to where you are giving your address..
.we have some hateful people reading these forums and they reek havoc on innocent good breeders and people....

Steph,
Cheesey Fries! What a mess. Poor Steph, you do so much and get so little help. Hang in there, take a moment to put your feet up and drink some wine. Chill baby, chill! The poor GSDs out there need you and others like you. And feel free to do as wuzzup suggests...bitch slap 'em when they need it. You have our permission...and imagine how good it will feel. Oh, and definitely post the offender's names. If it is the truth they can't do anything about it. Come on folks, dig deep and get her some money to help defray the costs she is bearing while cleaning up what we can't do ourselves.

I agree with Yellowrose: DO NOT POST PERSONAL INFORMATION. Get a post office box, or private box office box at UPS or something and post that. There are lots of people on this forum who would be only too happy to send you donations to help with the work you do for our breed. Work, I might add, that most of the rest of us have neither the time, inclination, or temperament to do. 
I know I don't--I would bitch slap a few of these breeders!!

I have a client who only rescues senior dogs, particularly dogs who have not been well cared for- overweight, bad teeth, heart and other health issues. He spends a fortune putting them through rehab, chiro, etc., and has put several extra happy years on elderly dogs and makes their golden years their best ones. He loves GSDs, so if you ever get an "oldie but goodie" who will get along with other dogs, small ones especially, PM me.

My contract says same thing...I get first bid and the dog cannot be sold , transferred or euthanized without my written permission...I have taken back 4 males that I did resell and one, Laredo , that is for sale now....from men and women who lost jobs, got divorced and had to move where dog could not go...
.I have been lucky and one LADY last year got mad because I wouldn't let her give it away.....and then there was the one I rescued from THE LITTLE OLE SHACK BY THE RAILROAD TRACK AND THIS IS HER WITH BLAIZE IN A LITTLE OLE TOWN IN SOUTH TEXAS.
Some may remember I discovered her tied with a chain in weeds and someone beating her with a tire tube....Blaize is first and Chelsey is next to him...they are both sitting here beside the computor right now as my son is here for a quick visit.......crutches and all....

I applaud all that you do for the breed...
I made you a promise with Oakley, and I will give her a good home until death do us part. She's doing spectacularly, knows the place like it's been home forever, and we're doing great. I do lots of socialization, and we are always working with obedience and things...I'm proud to report that so far, we have NO BAD HABITS. Of course, if one should develop, I am more than equal to the task of working through it. Easier, though, just to not get them in the first place.
God, it's so sickening to read the posts like the one above..Three messages in one morning!!
Why the hell not invest in a little bit of obedience training, and behavior modification, instead of dumping the dogs in rescue? There was an absolutely gorgeous GSD in the local animal shelter about two weeks ago..Good candidate for a new home, friendly even in a cage, but still, purebred, beautiful dog, young...Probably no major bad habits besides chewed on things, or maybe a digger, but in the shelter nonetheless.
I've seen the silly reasons people put dogs in the shelter...worked there for a summer, and Lord knows, so many who get animals have no right to have them. Sickening. Totally sickening. Get a dog for a pet, spay it. Don't let it breed.
We just spayed our little border mix on Monday, no puppies, no additional burden to the shelter system. Oakley is, of course, already spayed. Our cat is even spayed.
People need to be more responsible, and so do shelters. It's becoming a nightmare to get a dog from most rescues and shelters. People go to breeders, too many of which are all too happy to sell them a puppy, and no education. Maybe if shelters could somehow do a training class with all new owners, to teach them to handle basic obedience, behavioral issues, and things like that...But it would cost too much, and no one wants to pay for it...

This is Oakley yesterday...She's doing wonderfully...A rescue sucess...
