Sad, but true story. I fund my dogs by selling real estate. Was on a listing appointment yesterday,the potential seller was attempting to show me her nice back yard, with the wood stockade fence, Hear dogs barking, could see through the narrow slats, a tall dog with perky ears. I said that looks like a German Shepherd. The seller says there's 2 of them. And now puppies, too. She almost lost me! It took me some time to muster my professionalism, to actually stay on task. My first instinct was to walk next door, see if mama and daddy GSD were OFA'ed, met the standard, and see the pups........ Hard day!
