Ok - so I was going to post this in the Breeding section but didn't see a main topic where I could put this in. And not sure if I am stepping over any rules for the post and if so I apologize and won't do it again. But I live in MA and am looking to add an addition to my existing family (one GSD) and I am looking for a solid black GSD with good working lines. Does anyone know of a good quality breeder in and around MA that will be producing a litter probably sometime in the Spring or even the Summer? I am looking for Solid Black only - possibly a Sable, but preferably a Solid Black - thank you

I don't have any breeders to recommend in that area - maybe others can help with that.

I will say however that you can not buy a GSD based on color. Never a good starting point.

Hi - Well we have seen many colored GSD's and our preference is the solid black. So if we can find one that is solid black then that would be good for us

It's ok to have a color preference. Mine is bi-colors.
However a color preference should be last on the list of what you're looking for in a GSD.

Oh yes I totally agree - I mean we are looking for a certain type of dog and color is last on the list. But if we can get a solid black or a Sable that would be great. We have seen so many of them and they are beautiful. All colored GSD's are beautiful but something about those colors, for me, sets them apart from the rest.

How old is your other dog now?

I don't have a lot of time right now, I'm supposed to be working but I'll try tonight to post about what it's like at my house right now with an adult GSD and a 10 week old working line puppy (Who is a delightful pup!!)

Thank you and that would help. My dog is 20 months old. So by the time I get the puppy it would be a little over 2 years old and then the puppy - please let me know - thank you

hehehehehe!!! I bet life is fun at Barb's house right now!

I hope you find what you are looking fer. I do not know any breeders out that way. I can understnad you wanting a certain color. I am partial to black and tan and that is what I want but I will take what dog is right for me, even if it is a sable which is my least prefered color.

Thank you and I hope I find what I am looking for as well. One thing that really bummed me out is my dog's ears are not up. I know people always tell me I should love my dog the way they are and I do so much. But when the ears are not up and this is my first GSD, it is kind of a downer. But he is still my son no matter what.

so how is Bruski's training going?
