I myself had a German Shepherd for many years until she passed, and while I'd love another sadly the breed has been so popular that there are too many problems with their hips and other health problems. I imagine that isn't a problem for rough coated collies (being so popular that the breed has numerous health problems). Birukitty- Find yourself a reputable breeder, one that breds working lines like myself. My breeding GSDs have been hip and elbow checked as well as DM checked. Look for one that has flat backs (German and Czech lines) versus American Show lines. If you lived close to Oregon I would recommend one of my pups! I bred for good family temperaments as well as overall health. I love my German Shepherds!

I'd pretty much given up trying to find a good breeder of GSDs since even my neighbor who thought he'd found a great breeder and imported his dog from Germany ended up with hip displaycia (sorry can't remember correct spelling). Thanks for your offer though very much and I will keep it in mind. Right now we have a 8 month old Siamese kitten and currently aren't looking to add a dog to our house (I would love it, but DH doesn't care for the idea after our previous GSD had such a love of barking.

malibou , two of them are seniors in college this year. It has only gotten a "tad" easier. Watching them blossom has been so fun but when they come home for the holidays and then leave again, the sadness starts all over. It's definitely a roller coaster. peasapie , they truly are the best dogs. We have had 8 dogs (4 different breeds), and rough collies have been are absolute FAVORITE. Wouldn't trade them for the world. Have you thought about getting another one? I finally found a few pics of my girl. Took me a while to unearth them and scan them, but now that I did, I'm so glad. She warms my heart all these many years later... SaveSave
