If you thing we are tough, you need to try to rescue a puppy.
We met this family that were from Cuter and had never had animals in their
home. As Muslims they didn't believe in keeping pets, and so, looking at German
shepherd puppies was a new experience. The father made it clear, he and his
family never had a dog, and found it strange that people would keep a dog, and
didn't understand why they would have one in the house.
That was Summer's family, who now have two great Asgard dogs.

Flower Boy, you are absolutely right. WE (the collective GSD family) are
capable of doing exactly THAT--driving people away. We have to stop being
elitists and remember that WE were given a chance by good breeders/mentors
way-back-when, during a time when we were newbies, beginners and knew
jack-squat. We have to help, not hinder and give people a chance. Most puppy
buyers are great people, willing to learn. We should HELP the way WE were
HELPED.

We all want the dogs we sell/place/give away to go to the "right"
home...but I wonder if we sometimes drive away pet buyers , sending them to so
called backyard breeders, with the conditions we place on them! We say we want
to educate the public but are we putting so many conditions on our dogs that
they simply don't want to be bothered with us! And yes we have the right to put
what ever conditions we want on the dogs we sell.... But then we can't bitch
when Jane Doe puppy buyer goes out and buys from sources that don't necessarily
meet our standards. Ed
