Actually, it has been my understanding that Horand was found, not bred.
His
original name was Hektor Linksrhein. Capt von Stephanitz changed his name
to Horand v Grafrath and he became the foundation sire of the German
Shepherd Dog.
That is how I understood it. I don't think Hektor Linksrhein was a German
shepherd or even a Schufferhund. I don't know what he was, but maybe he
was a Shiloh Shepherd. Or perhaps some older breed, like perhaps a Xilo.
And, whoever Horand was bred to, (I do remember the bitches name), was
probably something other than a German shepherd, since the registry didn't
exist prior to the breeding.
I should remember this stuff, but I think it might have been before I was
active in showing.
