How to buy a European German Shepherd?
German Shepherds are considered to be one of the most popular dogs in the world. With their popularity boosted by Rin Tin Tin in his television series, people have fallen in love with this breed. A breed that is used by police and military for guarding, protecting and search and rescue assignments, they were also reliable seeing-eye dogs that efficiently assisted the disabled as well as become very loving companions. If you are interested in getting a German Shepherd for your family, then the first step is to research on what makes this canine genuine. The breed standard will say it all: These dogs have a noble look with a sturdy and lean body that is slightly longer than taller. They have long muzzles, pointed ears and almond-shaped eyes. Necks, shoulders and legs are strong and muscular with a bushy tail. The accepted coat color is black and tan, sable or just black in three hair versions: shorthaired (sometimes called rough-coated), medium-haired and longhaired. Once you think you have what is needed to go on your search, then start surveying the area. As a German Shepherd is watchful, do the same and be aware of what makes a good breeder. You must remember that quality is a top priority when it comes to getting a purebred.

- Always opt for a simple exchange of cash and puppy
- Do his best to cover up flaws with excuses and wild stories about the exceptions that don’t exist
- Not be able to produce some or all needed documents for health clearances etc
- Not give out clients names for you to use as referrals
On the bright side, a quality breeder will:
- Stick to the breed standard and maintain its temperaments of being fearless, intelligent and protective
- Give you all the necessary papers and registration assistance
- Will make sure you understand how to properly groom and care for the dog
- Will allow you all the time to make your decision
