I admit to being very prejudice regarding my love of American German Shepherd Dogs. As a judge, my eye expects to see the type we are all used to.? But recently I had the great pleasure of meeting German import "Kevin vom Murrtal, VA5."? He lives in Canada at Bullinger German Shepherds.? At 11 years young, I'd have guessed his age at?5 or 6.? What a magnificent dog IN EVERY WAY. Unless we go to Germany, I think we miss the great ones.? I wish we could incorporate some of these dogs in our breeding programs here, but alas,?they prefer to breed?their best dogs?to those of?other?German bloodlines.
