I can remember as recent as the 80s she was buying oversized, coated GSDs  
from anybody that would sell her one (Linda Brown).  Then there was a whole  
big dust up in their ranks...rumors of different breeds brought in, could 
be  shown in this venue but not that...years ago (80s?), i didn't follow it 
all that  closely, maybe someone can fill in the blanks. My overall 
impression was just a  big, shaggy GSD w/ no type, often questionable 
temperament.
 
After the dust up, to my way of thinking, things improved.  Still  
waaaayyyyyy oversized, but some are typey and temperament has certainly  
improved.
 
I will say this, the Shilo people I have encountered on various  
reproductive lists put very many our GSD breeders to shame with all of  the 
health 
testing they do before they consider breeding anything. TO SHAME! My  goodness 
they test the hell out of those dogs and boy do they spend money on all  
things reproductive...freezing/implants, not just progesterone but LH...and I'm 
 thinking for what? I mean they have their own registry...I has to be a  
passion and kudos to them for the extensive health testing. 
 
On a personal note, funny story sort of, Solo has a long coated  brother.  
The first time the family took him to be groomed, the groomer  insisted he 
was a Shilo.  Anyway...I thought it was funny.

about their new Shiloh Shepherd puppy.  At first it  made me laugh since any
Shiloh Shepherd person I ever ran into always wants  t know how big my AKC
Shepherd is.  As my friend Kathy says "  Why?  you want to eat him?"
Anyway, I looked it up and was  surprised at how impressive
their advertising is. Anyway, it got me to  thinking...who was the 'founder"
of the breed?  Didn't she pass away a  few years ago?  There are many claims
within the advertising of  "foundation" dogs.  Just wondering...  Sue  T
