This is a male pup from a very reputable breeder in US. He was exam with "abnormal gum" by vet on his first visit. I called the breeder told her the issue. She explained to me that it is "normal", gsds bite have to be scissor cut form. I have to agree with her by that point. But the true is the pup's gum is abnormal. The upper jaw is overshot over 1/2 inch. Please take a look at the picture and prove that vet and me are wrong. I spend $2750 for the pup, plus shipping and health certificate total was $3050. This is the pup that a reputable breeder so called "show quality".

A puppy for nearly three grand? From a "reputable" breeder? Seriously.......
If I paid that much for a puppy he better use the actual toilet, wash dishes, clean the house, and mow the yard.

I agree with others though, it does look like an over bite.

puppies are a crap shot.......... (children too - both my needed orthodontics - LOL).
what does your contract stipulate?
reputable breeder or not.......only the top few percent of puppies are good enough for breeding.
have you talked to the breeder, or are have you decided to vent on line first?

SM, temperament may be a crap shoot, but for a SL teeth certainly shouldn't be! Especially when the breeder sells it as show quality. Fraud, comes to mind and you defend it.
Holy frick you breeders stick together.

I did contact the breeder. Here is what she said.
"Like I said, when all puppies are teething.. their bites can be off. It is not abnormal. When the puppy is done teething.. and all of his adult teeth are in... we can look into the situation again. I would expect that the puppy's bite would be correct when he has time like all puppies to go through this process. It takes time to raise them and give them time to get these things done."
