Sorry to hear. I see it this way. It’s what I signed up for. GSDs are incredible dogs. But they don’t live long.
We are deciding if we want to get a puppy. It’s like having a damn baby. No more American breed lines. We will he importing our GSDs from Germany.
She has been relatively healthy but overall the American lines have lots of issues. We have lost a lot of dogs to genetics. All American show line.
German dogs are working line. Breeding is controlled by the State. The result is large, healthy and ready to get to work.
