I cannot think of anything in our magnificent Breed that needs so much
improvement that we should or
would even consider using another Breed.......or to go back in time to use what
we started with.........?

This came up on my Facebook newsfeed and it raises certain very interesting
questions. Rare breeds aside, I wonder….
There ‘should be’ enough diversity in the German Shepherd breed to not have to
pursue a genetic rescue, but my curiosity having been aroused..
IF it was necessary to bring a (or some) other breeds into the GSD, which
breeds would you think compatible and capable of improving the breed.
Remember, the GSD started from a mix of breeds. Would we go back to them IF we
knew exactly what they were? or maybe… DO we know exactly what they were/
