About to buy a GSD

[SandStone_Kennels]

Hey. I'm looking around at GSD breeders for a pup. Just a few questions... What is the average price for a pup? I don't wanna get ripped. Best time to take a GSD pup home? Does anyone else have a GSD? Could anyone tell me a bit more about them? We have a huge backyard suitable for a German Shepherd. So thats all good. Yeah. Thanks. I'll be posting some pics in a couple of weeks when we get her :)

[Fran27]

Ok, first thing, you really need to learn about the breed when you get a dog. So, I suggest you go to google and do a search on german shepherds and spend a day reading whatever comes up.

Next, make sure you get your dog from a responsible breeder (check the post at the top of the forum). Then, it will probably take longer than a couple weeks to get her if you go through a responsible breeder, as they don't have litters all the time.

I suggest you look up the GSD club and get addresses from there.

" How to Raise A Puppy You Can Live With " tells you how to evaluated a litter for the best pup for you.

you should read what i wrote back to you in my thread "is my puppy too little" in puppy forums, because i think you should know what i have to say to that comment.
as for a gsd puppy good luck with that, there are so many to choose from! :)

[Renee750il]

First, check out the stickied thread here http://www.chazhound.com/forums/showthread.php?t=787 to help guide you in choosing a breeder.

Eight weeks old is really the minimum age for a GSD, 10 to 12 weeks is great.

I'm assuming you're only mentioning the backyard as a place for your GSD to be able to play and exercise in a safe, contained area, not as its 'home.' A German Shepherd is a dog that needs lots of time with it's people - in the house. They don't do well when left on their own in the backyard, but then, no dog really does.

I'm afraid I'm no help on pricing, as all of mine, with the exception of my first GSD pup, have been rescues.

Just curious, what other dogs do you have? I ask because your call-name, "Sandstone Kennels" implies you have other dogs or you operate a boarding facility. ;)

[BigDog2191]

I was wondering the same thing... :)

[stirder]

well lets see, where to start??? some of this you may already know, hopefully some of it will be new info that will help you. 1st off to answer your 1st question...price depends on what you are looking for. do you want american showlines? (I suggest avoiding those), german showlines, german workling lines, czech lines? heres one site that shows some of the different types http://www.nwk9.com/type_comparison.htm
if you are interested in doing schutzhund, herding, agility, etc I would recommend working lines. if you want to show, showlines of course. just a family dog? Id recommend a breeder who uses european lines, wether working or show. american line dogs have smaller bone structure, smaller heads, and can barely hold their butts off the ground. they are a lot more prone to genetic health disorders.
for a well bred, health garaunteed pet quality puppy you should expect to pay between $500 and $1,200 dollars depending on the lines and breeder.
best time to take a puppy home is not before it is 9 weeks old. and when someone will be home to house train it and bond with it.
I have had gsd's my whole life and have been training them (and other breeds) for over 12 years. you are more than welcome to ask me any questions you want, on here, on the other site I pm'd you, or you can pm me. its hard to just start listing info about them, it would take forever and still wouldnt list it all, and I dont know what you already know.
and a big yard is deffinetly a must, but is this going to be an outside dog??? if so I HIGHLY recommend you stay away from gsd's. as an outside dog it will not be happy. it will be bored, hyper, dig and chew, it will find a way out of the fence, and it will be very difficult to control even on leash. not saying that to hurt you, or to sound like Im reading anything into your post. but there are a lot of people who get gsd's and other breeds, think it will be okay to keep them outside all the time, and then wonder why they cant control their dog. they are absolutely family dogs, and need to spend as much time as possible with the family. like I said, if you do a lot of research and ask a lot of questions you will not regret choosing a gsd.

[bubbatd]

It's interesting that you say not before 9 weeks. I personally feel this depends on the breeder. Having only bred goldens and knowing they are better to bond with new owners as close to their 8th week as possible I'd really like to know why GSs are different. Doesn't it depend on what the breeders can do the next weeks ? I personally would not want to buy a " left over" at 9 to 12 weeks if the other pups have gone home. Your are right about the timing considering the 8th week is the " fear and sensitive time " .....I've kept pups longer when they had to be shipped, but brought them in as part of the family. A lot of people are confused by the weeks thing.......49th day of life is the best....I sent home the closest to that day on a weekend when the bonding could start.

[stirder]

the 8th and 9th week are the most important for them to be around their siblings. they learn social standards from them, such as how to play, how hard they can play before being yelled at by bro, sis, or mom. its very important for their socialization. this is true of all herding and guardian breeds, maybe not with retrievers and other breeds that are not territorial though? I do know that most terrier breeders dont send puppies to homes untill they are 9 weeks old. and it shouldnt be a left over, if you find a gsd breeder who is selling pups before 9 weeks old they are almost garaunteed to have done a lot of other things wrong, such as choosing the parents.
ask the breeder why they bred this litter from these two dogs.
if they say to improve the breed, ask them how this breeding could improve the breed. (improving the breed is the only responsible reason to breed).
ask them what titles the parents have recieved. (titles prove that the dogs have proven themselves as good representatives of their breed).
ask them what kind of health and temperment garauntees they offer on the pups.
ask to see the OFA certifications of both sire and dam of the litter. also ask what grade the rest of the bloodlines got.
once you find a good breeder pick the puppy based on: bright clear eyes, nice soft coat (no tangles etc), clean non-smelly puppy area, clean non-smelly parents areas, energetic, comes right up to you rather than shying away or ignoring you, doesnt mind being picked up (its okay if it wants to be put back down, though not preferable), not smaller than the rest of the litter (females are smaller than males, but the pups should be pretty similar in size as puppies, just like human babies are). ask them to point out the differences between show/working quality and the pet quality puppies. atleast 1 puppy in the litter should be working or show quality, and you should not be able to tell a difference between them even after it is explained.
and if you dont mind my asking, what breeder are you getting one from? if you havnt chosen a breeder yet I'd be happy to recommend a few. feel free to pm me.

Really? From what I hear it actually goes up to 12 weeks...

[Renee750il]

Good posts, Stirder . . .

I've had a Shep since I was twelve and can't imagine life without one, no matter what other dogs I have. Some have been pure-bred; two have been mixes. Personally, I HATE what has happened to the modern German Shepherd. I love the old farm German Shepherds; the ones that fit the 'old' standards . . . 65-80 pound dogs, none of those silly, swoopy hindquarters, sturdy chest, not too leggy . . . the kind you only see now bred by the old farmers who only breed to have their own working dogs and have been doing it for decades upon decades.

I've wondered if the dogs bred from Rin Tin Tin's line have maintained the old lines, or if they too have succumbed to all of the "improvements."

[stirder]

bigdog, thats true. some breeders dont allow the pups to go to new homes untill even 14 weeks, but that is rare. they do still get socialization and skills from their siblings and mother, but the most important is done by 9 weeks. also when they stay untill 10-14 weeks, they become more bonded to their siblings and the breeder. its hard to say what is exactly right, but they shouldnt be homed untill atleast 9 weeks old. personally if I bred a litter Id have a hard time ever letting them go.
actually the original type shepherd is still very common. it is non-existent in american lines but a lot of breeders in american have german lines. the german working lines are the closest to the original type. my last gsd was a carbon copy of the first ever registered gsd. he was imported from germany. the male I have now is a german showline dog. hes not exactly original type, but he has the large bone structure and straight back of the original type. Im going to post a few pictures of him here, and then I will paste on a couple of websites of kennels who breed true german shepherds, not the american shitherds.
his back looks a little sloped in this picture, normally it is almost level. he is a belgian import from german showlines, deffinetly show quality and has proven his working ability...
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v670/panzer426/100_0249.jpg
this just shows how happy he gets...
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v670/panzer426/IMG013.jpg
shows his big head, certainly not the refined weak head of the american lines...
http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a148/bradfran/100_0440.jpg
this one I just like to show off...

and here are a couple of sites...
http://users.pandora.be/daelenberghutte/index2.htm

http://www.whirlingthunder.com/

and actually beware of ads saying old style large boned oversized german shepherds. these are typically larger than they were ever supposed to be, and more prone to health problems, and bred only for size.

[bubbatd]

Good posts !!! I haven't bred in 12 years, but through my " Puppy Bible" did everything ( plus more) any GOOD breeder should do. My pups were ready to move on at 8 weeks. Weaned, eating well, all puppy shots, worm checked ( never had any of over 100 pups....Mom's were checked before breeding ), on puppy heart worm, socialized with each pup inside at least 1/2 hour a day, paper trained and each evaluated for personality. They were vet checked at 2 days old, and before their 1st shots.Now anyone considering having a litter, that's at least 2 hours a day per pup. AT the beginning.......from 5 weeks on, each pup got 15 mins. a day one on one...grooming, nails, loving etc. Sorry to carry on..... I miss having babies !

[BigDog2191]

Your shepherd's beautiful, stirder. Rocky comes from German show lines as well.

[stirder]

I figured from the bottom pic on your signature that he was either german working or show lines, at that age and sometimes as adults its hard to tell between the 2. hes a pretty (or should I say handsome) dog.
and also to anyone thinking about breeding, unless you are very iresponsible, you will not make any money. its rare for a good breeder to ever even break even. they do it because its their passion and hobby.

[bubbatd]

BigDog... you know with me Rocky rules !!! I know you don't plan to breed him.

[stirder]

he's only 6 months old? he cant be ofa certified untill 24 months. is there a reason you dont plan to breed him? not saying you should or shouldnt, just wondering.

[BigDog2191]

I probably won't. Mostly because I don't have the money to go through all the health tests and such. And I doubt it will be that much better 2 years down the road.

And with that, I would be an irresponsible breeder. I know nothing about breeding. Of course, I could learn. But I really do doubt it would happen. He's going to get neutered soon actually.

[stirder]

good answers. it is expensive, and a lot fo work. if you dont plan on breeding then neutering is deffinetly a responsible way to go.

[SandStone_Kennels]

Thanks everyone for the replys. We have a border collie at the moment as well. I set up this account when we were doing jack russells. We don't no more. We like GSD's much better. They are a real dog to us. Anyway, today we went to the CAWA show. It was pretty cool. We looked around at a couple of people's dogs and watched some classes. We are getting as much info as we can about the breed. The GSD pup we get will be living outside and inside. Our border collie does the same. Its just in winter when they're all muddy he's not allowed inside. But, as we have 6 people in our family who often go for walks, both the dogs will be out and about every few hours. And yeah, we're not gonna go for the "left overs" as some of you call them. We're having a look at a breeder down south this weekend. They have two litters. One which is 4 weeks yesterday and 1 which is 6 weeks yesterday. We really like the look of the pictures.
Cya

[SandStone_Kennels]

Also, by the way, we are looking at german lines. Where the dogs acually originally come from. Not american. Also, we mainly just want a family pet. :) cya

[SandStone_Kennels]

bY THE WAY, THE PIC OF THE PUP IM LOOKING AT IS NEXXT 2 MY NAME. IM NOT SURE WHICH ONE IT IS, BUT ITS ONE OF THEM. ONES MALE THE OTHER FEMALE. DO THEY LOOK OK?? OR...

WOOPS, SOZ ITS IN caps. musta been from my last post. :( lol

[Fran27]

Leaving your dogs outside in the winter? Is a clean house more important to you that your dog's happiness?

I really hope no breeder will ever sell you a dog in those conditions :mad:

[poeluvr]

i must agree with fran, how is it then a family dog:(
poor dog

[Babyblue5290]

plus....leaving it out in winter is the worst time for that! It gets cold (depending on where you live) and might snow (again depends on wher you live) all the different illness' the pup can get from being left alone and it isn't making a good connection with your family out there.

[poeluvr]

yea, they have fur, but not a parka!

[SandStone_Kennels]

Guys, my dogs have the warmest bed. And it DOESNT snow here. I don't know where you guys live, but here it doesn't get that cold. we don't have snow or ice or ahil. nuthing. so why are you guys being like that??? I dont like it. dont post in my thread if your gonna be all mean. we have a warm fire goin sometimes in winter. only if it gets really cold. then he sits in front of it and sleeps. if its a freezing cold night, (ehich is rare) he comes inside. just dont get all like that Fran27 and Lea. OMG! this is my other dog im talking about. im not talking about the pup. the pup will definately b inside in winter. and summer under the cool air-con. do you guys have snow where u come from??? I've neva been in snow. so thats mayb why u guys are upset ova nuthin.

[gaddylovesdogs]

You make your collie live outside in the winter??

Where I am, yes, it does snow. Twenty below is very common - a dog would die living outside in the winter here.
EDIT: A dog would also probably die here living outside full-time in the summer, as it often gets over one hundred degrees.

[Fran27]

I don't care if it's snowing or if it's 80 degrees, the dog's place is with people inside, not outside. And leaving a dog outside to avoid mud in the house is just lame - why do you even get dogs then?

[poeluvr]

well you gotta understand people on this forum come from different countries. we dont know where yoou live. so we assumed it would snow since it snows where we live, and im sure me and fran have never lived in a place where it doesn't snow. We have probably lived with snow all our lives. You should have said what country you were from so we'd understand. I, personally was not trying to be mean, was just thinking you were mean for leaving him in the snow, but now i know. You don't have to get all mad about it, it was a miscommunication. Which often happens on computers.

[gaddylovesdogs]

I looked at her website (link is in her sig) and she lives in Australia.

[poeluvr]

so it doesnt snow there right, well now i know

[gaddylovesdogs]

I know people who live in Australia and they say that they do have cold winters though.

[SandStone_Kennels]

Fran, just respect other people. OK? some people dont even walk their dogs. Our dogs get walked all the time. They are loved. Stop critising me. Thankyou Lea. I don't live in a country where it snows or where its 80 degrees. And its a border collie not a collie. Fran, you're not the only person here. STOP being mean and selfish. just because your dogs may sleap inside on your beds and eat from the dinner table that doesn't mean everyones dog does. just stop it ok? My dog, not urs. and, think of other dogs that never get walks or.....

leave me alone

[Fran27]

No Australia isn't very cold either I believe. It's just that I can't imagine leaving a dog outside. Heck, my dog cries if I leave him alone outside 5 minutes :( They are social dogs, they need to be with their owners.. not alone outside :mad:

And you're right, it's not my dogs, I would never treat them that way. Poor dogs :(

[SandStone_Kennels]

yeh, gaddylovesdogs, on the eastern parts of australia it snows. here in broome and perth it doesnt. ok??? get it??? AND ITS NOT YOUR BUSINESS. my dogs get treated very well comapred to other dogs.

[SandStone_Kennels]

yes u did misunderstand me fran. when they are clean and rubbed warm they are allowed back in. u dont want muddy paw prints in ur new house? would u? especially wood floor??

[gaddylovesdogs]

Fran, just respect other people. OK? some people dont even walk their dogs. Our dogs get walked all the time. They are loved. Stop critising me. Thankyou Lea.

leave me alone
GEEZ no one was trying to be rude to you, especially not me. I know your dog is a border collie, what is wrong with saying just collie?

yeh, gaddylovesdogs, on the eastern parts of australia it snows. here in broome and perth it doesnt. ok??? get it??? AND ITS NOT YOUR BUSINESS. my dogs get treated very well comapred to other dogs
You posted this here, on a public message board!! You can't expect people just to ignore what you say.

[Fran27]

Actually i have wood floor and muddy paw prints all the time in my house. I just wait until it's nicer out and I clean (which I need to do today...). Otherwise my dogs would be outside for days...

[SandStone_Kennels]

im leaving. ill go to another board where im respected and been nice 2. i cant believe it

[Fran27]

Good luck with that! I don't think you will find any dog lover that leaves their dog outside to avoid having a muddy house :mad:

[gaddylovesdogs]

No one was trying to be mean to you. I'm sorry that you feel offended, but no one (NO ONE) is saying you abuse or neglect your dogs.

[gaddylovesdogs]

She is probably young and has no choice of where her dogs live. My family also has wood floors. Our backdoor is located in our kitchen, where we have nice wood flooring. Muddy footprints are very common when we get rain. We make sure to have a big pile of rags near the doorway and bring the dogs in one by one to have their paws wiped off. It's a hassle, but we can't keep them outside. They'd die, even though we'd take good care of them - the weather is too much for them to handle and mentally they'd go crazy.

[poeluvr]

well i think this is whole miscommunication. You dont leave your dog outside all day and night in winter right? they get warmth whether it be outside or inside right?
yes sand stone some people dont walk their dogs but that makes them not the best owners. And i know you must be a good one be3cause you care enough about your dogs to come on this ite. we were just thinking you left them out all the time, (like some people do) like day and night for a seqason. I hope your outside a lot to help socialize and play with them. But they come inside to right so yea....

[Babyblue5290]

im leaving. ill go to another board where im respected and been nice 2. i cant believe it

I must agree with everyone else....*edit* I should restate that....your getting a little too defensive, like gaddy said, no one wants anythin other than to make sure you take care of your dogs, which it does seem like you care for them and take good care of them.

[Babyblue5290]

yea, they have fur, but not a parka!

???was that to me? :confused:

[poeluvr]

wait sandstone's new though. Sandstone why dont you take a break from here and then come back, people will forget, we are really nice here. i have been to ther forums and they are mean they think purebreads are best, just try again

[poeluvr]

???was that to me? :confused:
no that was to sandstone :confused:

[Babyblue5290]

no that was to sandstone :confused:
ok...I was just confused :rolleyes:

[Fran27]

The problem is that he doesn't see the middle ground between people who have their dog sleep in their bed and eat their dinner food and people who don't walk their dog and leave them outside all the time. Trying to justify that you are not a bad owner because you walk your dogs and other people don't is not a good argument at all. It just says there are bad owners out there. What's new?

I don't have the dogs sleep in my bed, and they never get any of my food (ok maybe once every two weeks), but I wouldn't even consider leaving them alone outside for more than 10 minutes, because dogs are social animals that need to be with people. And he seems to be more obsessed with his clean floor than the happiness of his dogs, that's what is bothering me. I have no doubt either that if it's rainy for a week his dogs will be outside for a week. And I just can't understand that.

Yet his only way of answering our concerns is to attack us, instead of trying to explain his actions. A muddy floor is hardly enough an argument to justify this in my opinion.

Bah, whatever, I give up, some people you just can't reason with. And I totally agree, this forum is by far the best I have seen, full of wonderful people, and we all argue with each other from time to time but we learn from it, because we just care about what's best for our dogs. I don't think this guy would learn anything from it, he would just get angry at everyone.

[SandStone_Kennels]

im outy.
ill find another forum on google. with nice people. thanks guys for maing me feal welcome. and as lea said, im new. so yeh, keep up the good work with other new peeps. BYE

[SandStone_Kennels]

Umm... Fran, I'm not a guy... lol. ?? yeh, im not. and, i dont like clean floors better than my dogs. I don't let my dogs stay outside for a week.

[SandStone_Kennels]

Oh yeh, Lea, remember when you first got your dog? I was around then. I think i had a different account though.

[poeluvr]

WAIT! OMG! umm.just a few minutes ago me and fran were disagreeing about something on another thread. i was saying she was wrong and visa versa. but see wwe dont hate eachother. sometimes stuff like this will happen. im starting to think ur young cuz your not listening to me when i say we argue but then we laugh about something else......

[Babyblue5290]

im outy.
ill find another forum on google. with nice people. thanks guys for maing me feal welcome. and as lea said, im new. so yeh, keep up the good work with other new peeps. BYE

Bye! *waves goodbye*

[poeluvr]

sorry, actually that sounded mean too sry. just its ok, we were a little harsh but its ok...i know knowthere is only two other people who disagreed with you, and we have like 100 members so dont leave cuz of two , they were just trying to help

[Fran27]

Sorry, didn't know you were not a guy. Usually I assume that people who post here at girls, but sometimes they get annoyed when they are guys, so I don't know anymore, lol.

For the floors, well, you started getting angry before trying to explain everything. So of course people assume that what they thought in the first place is right. People are great here, but they all get touchy when it comes to dogs - don't we all?

If people misunderstand, explain yourself, I know it's hard not to get angry (I've done it), but don't let it get to you, everyone just wants what's best for the dogs.

And I've seriously done researches on google for new forums (not to leave, but because I have way too much time in my hands), I just love the people here the best.

[poeluvr]

....and you:)

[stirder]

wow!!! I took my dog out for a few minutes and suddenly there a whole 2 new pages, of all this??? wow.

[poeluvr]

(i dont want to start sounding like those evil people on www.qualitydogs.com)

[Babyblue5290]

sorry, actually that sounded mean too sry. just its ok, we were a little harsh but its ok.

me.....god I'm getting so confused with who people are talking to.....maybe I should stop thinking it's me cause why would it be? I didn't make this thread..lol :p

[gaddylovesdogs]

Sorry, didn't know you were not a guy. Usually I assume that people who post here at girls, but sometimes they get annoyed when they are guys, so I don't know anymore, lol.

I've been mistaken as a guy on a couple different forums. I always go, "Um...yeah, actually it's 'she'".

[Fran27]

Yeah it's not always easy to tell on forums, lol.

[SandStone_Kennels]

Guys, im sorry for making this thread 6 pages and all full of crap. soz bout the language. but, i dont feel wanted nymore :( so, yeh, ill just leave

how old r u baby?

[Fran27]

I think it's really hard to tell the age of someone from posts. It depends a lot on the way you write, if you use abbreviations etc...

The topic. Um.
When are you going to see those puppies?

[Babyblue5290]

how old r u baby?

OMG you don't know what went through my head when you said "how old are you baby" LOL......at first I was offended and then realized you were just using part of my name! ROFL :p

I'm 17, but I think it's just the way you write....like how you spell things and abbreviate.

[SandStone_Kennels]

[SandStone_Kennels]

Good Night everyone!!

[Babyblue5290]

I didn't think you would that's why it shocked me soo much, but I reread it and got what you meant. But I got a big laugh out of that one! :D

[Babyblue5290]

yea i dont care how i write
It doesn't really matter, I write like I talk. It's just people have different styles and as longs as we understand each other (most of the time) than it doesn't really matter. :)

[poeluvr]

did you think i was calling you a actual baby like wha wha baby?

[SandStone_Kennels]

good night people.
nice dog lea. lol, ive said that tonnes of times but yeh, cya

[Babyblue5290]

did you think i was calling you a actual baby like wha wha baby?

no....I was thinking like a pic up line :rolleyes:
Something like "hey baby, how's bout me and you hook up later" LOL :D
But I didn't think you were trying to hit on me, I just took it as you calling me baby like in the tone of a pic up line...does that make sense?

[Babyblue5290]

but you were offended? :D

[Babyblue5290]

Yeah at first, but only cause I didn't think anyone here would say something like I was thinking it, that's also why I reread it and then understood it wasn't what I thought it was.

[poeluvr]

it wasnt...but if someone did give u a pickup wouldnt tha be flattering...not that i promote someone to do it on the internet

[poeluvr]

[Babyblue5290]

Not to me.....especially someone over the internet or who didn't know me....calling me baby (in a pickup line manner) isn't something I like.

[poeluvr]

o yea that would be weird
