Looking for a working or showline Stud in Georgia ASAP - Page 1

I am looking for a nice stud to breed to my working line female shepherd. She just started her heat and need a quality stud in Georgia. Please email with pedigree and photo.

Please forgive me if I sound judgmental, but if you haven't done your research already it speaks volumes about the thought (or lack of)  you have put into this breeding. Furthermore,  there are thousands of pedigreed GSDs out there that are homeless and being put to sleep due to our bad economy. My suggestion is to wait and do your research. Also, you might want to evaluate what makes your dog breed worthy. The pedigree alone doesn't do it as there are many other things to consider such as health, temperament and working ability. Has your dog had any health screenings at all? Does she have a superb temperament?  Please reconsider rushing into this breeding for the sake of the breed and all the homeless GSDs out there.   

I have to side here with the "gate-keepers of the breed".  Before anyone will recommend anything, you'd have to post a link to your female's pedigree and her physical characteristics and flaws (there is no perfect dog).  A description of her drives and temperament and where do you want to go with your breeding.  Also, if your female is about to go in heat, it is short notice to go looking for a stud.  I have a very nice female that has all the drives needed to achieve SchH-3 (sadly, she has me as a handicap), and while her breeding date is still more than a year away, I've already started looking at possible mates to address those things that I think could be a little better.  Needless to say, I'm looking at dogs that are either from out of the region, purchased from Germany and thus not common here or from one of the bloodlines less common here (anything but Cant-Quanto unless working capabilities are pronounced) like Frei von der Gugge.

My advice is to start looking at the NASS results of the last 3 to 4 years and look for traits that the male can bring to the breeding as well as weaknesses that the dog has that may compound any shortcoming that your female has.  I'd also give preference to dogs that are beter performers in the work area and less to the conformation specialist, but that is my preference, you may do differently.  Draw a list of a dozen or so males from this and begin from that point.  If your female is showy enough, there are some WL dogs that are good in conformation and bring more drive than most SL dogs.  Once again, it depends what you're trying to do.

Breeding a litter without an objective in mind gives credence to the old saying: a failure to plan is to plan a failure.
