He claims he has one or two good ones...he bought one here one there and one from this kennel that had a good line in it then he just breeds what ever....He talks a good talk.....have you ever seen him at a trial or affliate with any club...does he know any one in breeding or anyone in akc or anyone that he can educate you about how to take care of your dog..did he demand you feed certain foods...does he use heart worm protection on any dog..or does he just say he does,,,
Did you see an ofa paper on hips...I have mine....everyone of them I breed..and people are welcome to see them and the tatoo on the ear....ask for a reference list and then call the people...ask for what dog they bought call the vet he uses...Mine loves to tell you about me...Before Marty came to buy a pup from me he never knew it till later but we used the same vet..was not hard for him to check on me. Never has been..even back where I came from the vets will be happy to talk to you about my gsd... and I am not ashamed to publish names..I have nothing to hide. But I do not breed any longer.
I am sorry but He makes me angry and too many of us that have good reputations just get so angry about this...I have a reference list a mile long and well know from Galveston to Oklahoma...I am not perfect nor do I claim to be but I stand behind my breed..and my lines and my pups....I have had one or two people that I have had problems with but I have witnesses and my vets to back me up as to how and why ...and I have Marty to back me on a certain bad man who tried to buy papers off of him so he could register a litter of pups out of a bitch I sold LIMITED>>>>
Steph is correct.....just because I LIMIT the papers...people like Mr Winters and Mr V in Palestine, Texas breed to a male and go buy papers off someone they know....done all the time....
Sorry for my rant but I am very P>O> about treatment of our breed like this...
Pm me privately and I can put you in touch with great breeders that charge the same thing MR WINTERS charges for a real well bred , healthy pup...and it is not the one in Spring , Texas. with a copied german name..

Weve only had one dog together since we were married.... We weren't really educated at all. unfortunately timeline came into play Not sure we will get another dog at this point. It's been really upsetting I just wish I wouldn't have purchased him, and looked long and hard. Its a shame the Net is full of so much garbage, makes it hard to search sometimes.
I appreciate the offer for referrals, and will take you up on it if we ever do decide to get another pup. Right now its hard to think about as you can imagine.

Truly sorry you were introduced to the German Shepherd this way...Many very nice people have come into my life from Houston area and Dallas areas and have been on that premises and many others and many of them bought a pup and took it back not knowing other breeders have rules , good pups, and proper breeding morals.
All litters are not perfect.. I have had one or two that were not the perfect ones...Had one with bad hips , one with a itching problem , not sure it wasn't what the people were feeding and how the buyer takes care of pup has a lot to do with many issues...do a lot of reading here and on sites about Germanblood lines and how they are raised...
Many vets want your money,,and are not knowledgeable about German blood lines..They tell you things GENERAL and have seen so many mangey, poor structured, bad hipped, bad ears, bad everthing in GSD , that the first thing out of their mouth is oh this dog has HD or that dog has Demodectic or that dogs has.......and sometimes are clearly wrong. I proved it many times...my vets are tops . They know where to get the answers...Hips are not their forte so they recommended someone who is.....can't knock a good vet for admitting he is not a Hip vet..
So hang in and find a just spend some time educating yourself...many people on this forum can help you and are in Texas..
Uberland is here in Texas, Doppeldehaus, Adrian Ledda., GermelHaus, and many more too many to list. Many private breeders who are not on here, work in GSD clubs and train and do breed good litters and do have them certified in OFA and other genetic passions to prove the lines are healthy. Visit some trials where you live, visit some dog events anywhere.. Read and study before you buy another dog..no matter what breed..
A breeder who is honest will help you whether you buy a dog from them or not..They should be able to educate you or they are not a breeder with good intent...
