Hello,
I am a new GSD owner and am so glad I found this website.  Sure wish I had read all the great information sooner.  I have many "newbie" questions and hope you will take pity on me while I learn.  First question is about pedigrees.  When I purchased my puppy I got the pedigree of both parents, but I really don't know what I'm reading.  Yes, I'm that naive, but I am anxious to learn as much as possible, as quickly as possible.  After reading some of the posts on this site, I am astonished at how much there is to GSD breeding and how to identify a "good" GSD.  
I am not going to breed this puppy.  She is just for a family dog.  I still would like to know a bit about her background.  So maybe some of you can help.

Welcome to this site!

The road here is often rocky...Always there are strong opinions on what's good and what's not, and lots of times not much, if any compromise in those opinions.  That said, there are some wonderfully knowledgeable people here, and that makes the stay worthwhile. There are a lot of good people here, from all over the world.

Welcome farmer Jane, looove the name. LOL.  I get called farmer Janet all the time.

Lots of good info on here, if you do a search on something you are curious about, you'll probably find some threads on it.

Or, fire away on here too, could make for good conversation!

Welcome!

This is indeed a very nice site, lots of experienced people, and useful topics posted here.

There are negative people on here, but mostly postive. Ofcourse, they will say whats on their mind, but sometimes it's not what you'd expect to hear.

Once again welcome!

Thanks for your comments.  After reading some of the posts, I can see that peole have a wide range of viewpoints and beliefs.  That's great.  OK, here's my first (probably of many) silly questions:  How do I look up the pedigree of the parents of my puppy.  I have their names and registration numbers....I guess that's what it is on the pedigree starts with DN then some numbers/?? I found the father on the database by his name, but I can't find the mother.

She might not be registered. You can order a half-ass pedigree from AKC and piece it together. There are other pedigree databases on the web,but if she is American, I doubt she'd be on them. Try to google the name. Post the names here and maybe someone can help.

 What is the mother name?

Remember when you search a dog not to put the titles, only the name, example: Quanto jipo me

A pedigree sheet simply mean/explains/shows in picture(as in pedigreedatabase) information about a particular dog or dogs ie who their direct parents are, grandparents, greatgrandparents and ancestors on either side(sire and dams side). For instance, who are your parents, granies, greatgranies and ancestor. Hope you understood. My regards and welcome to the best ever interactive forum. Expect the good, bad, fighs, quarells, make-up etc. Just try to be good. NigerDeltaMann.

Thanks again for your help.  I do have a pedigree from the AKC:  Here's the information on it:
Cookie von Bakenn (my puppy) German Shepherd Female BLK & RD  DN28335005.
Sire: Poldi Von Wittenberge DN23989102.  Dam: Dicee Von Bodo of Delco DN25520804.  Per the breeder they are German lines??? 
I will try a google search under name of dam.  Here's a photo of our baby girl.

 The sire of your puppy is a German Show Dog lines. I couldn't find out anything on the female. Maybe contact the breeder and see if he can get you a pedigree. Or you can try using the AKC pedigree and insert the females lines into the pedigree search here on this site.
Good Luck and welcome!
