Hi Helen and all, Have you not read the article in depth in the AKC gazette? The article written by Christy Jacobs of Gaitaway German shepherds in Alaska about my mentor in this Breed, Olivia Fowlis of Grendamar GSD'S in Portland Oregon? She had a litter about 2 years ago from Frozen semen from her Dog Ch. Grendamar's Charlie B. And Ch.Grendamar's Strip Dance,OFA. there was a litter from frozen semen collected by Carol Platz (sp.)~~~34~~~ years ago and implanted into stripper that produced 5 gorgeous puppies 3 boys and 2 girls. I have seen these puppies and WOW, they are really nice. not as angulated as we see today but very finishable. and wonderful temperaments and lovely type. be sure and read this article in the AKC Gazette . very well written and with photos.
