Breedia Dog Forum
The reason you are confused is that now with the pet pasport scheme many breeders are getting their qualification in Germany & these are all German...
The maremmas are not herders they are guarders, they guard from within the flock. When my friend & I used to walk through sheep with my GSD & her...
The reason white dogs are not considered as show worthy is because the way a GSD herds & guards the flock means it needs to be a different colour...
I am surprised to see that they are accredited breeders but are importing a bitch in whelp who is only 17 months. I'd not be happy with this.
If every GSD owner doesn't answer I do there's something wrong with them. Whether they are long or standard coated, English or Germanic, sable, black...
When I looked because I had thought it would be the same the GSD one had lower protein but a higher fat content than the sensitive, don't know if...
Mine are fed on Royal Canin GSD. Hannah can eat anything & it does not affect her, When I just had her she was fed on raw but when I tried him on raw...

Whites can be registered & you could show one although it would not come anywhere unless it was at a white & longcoat show put on by the white &...
Only dog I've been severely bitten by too. Happened when I was a child & people laugh at times at shows as I have no worry round rotties or mastiffs...
In so far as they were sheepdogs yes, but they work in different ways, The GSD tends not to drive the sheep as much as herding them ie keeping them...
Hannah is 28 kilos & Boyo is 31, When I got him he was 22 & then I overcompensated & he went up to 35. Stomach upset & down to 27 now he is 30 & Id...
Great photos but at the moment I don;t have a digital camera or a scanner so can't add mine.
Good job we're not all the same, have been avoiding comentating but I don't like True's eye colour,too light for me, not over struck on the coat...
The only reason white GSDs were initially banned from showing in Germany & were considered undesirable was because they were the same colour as the...
