mmmm, interesting. thanks for the info, Ginger. Grace Ginger Cleary <cleary1414@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Basically... a LARGE hairy GSD... well it started out that way. The breed was orignally developed on the East Coast using American bred GSDs crossed to flock guardians, which were then crossed with European bred GSDs. The MINIMUM height for males is 27 inches, and for females is 25. UNDER that minimum is a DQ.
