Whenever you buy any pup you aren't guaranteed anything.  The vast majority of 
shepherds will never turn out.  I have friends in other breeds were they have 
litters of five and they all finish.  Not in this breed!  When I first started 
in dogs,  I spent larger sums of money for young puppies and quickly learned 
that puppies aren't worth the 3-5, 000.00 people charge for them.  At four 
months you still have to make past teeth, x rays, and that still doesn't mean 
they won't fall apart.  I think in fairness when puppies are purchased they 
should be sold for a reasonable fee and as they get over the hurdles then more 
money can be requested.  
 
2, 000.00 honestly isn't a lot to pay for for a prospect particularly if she is 
from top producing lines.  You can always breed an oversized bitch.  Actually, 
we are hurting for males.  When I see doggy bitches they excite me.  I have 
great hopes for them in the whelping box.
