I think it is wonderful that Biden bought a GSD puppy from a breeder and everyone should be glad he didn't buy it from them. I'm sure the very first thing the dog warden did when he heard of the purchase was send someone out to do a white glove inspection. After all, what if the puppy was sick or had a flea bite? Everyone would have had the dog warden's ass in a sling for not having properly inspected the kennel. Guarenteed every thing you have ever done would be hanging on the wash line and regardless of "German," "American" or pet, you would be held in disdane by someone. I'm sure this puppy is going to have the best vet care and the best dog food and toys. The puppy will be well socialized and have the best training the world has to offer. The puppy will be loved and adored by many. I have every reason to believe this little puppy with do us all proud and help the breed's popularity. As for Linda, give the woman a break.
