If you get one from a high drive hunting line, you will have a VERY active dog.
Just remember to research genetic defects for any pure bred dog that you choose. Question the breeder about genetic defect testing and clearance on the pups.
OR just go adopt from a shelter. That's even better!
Wow, that is a very unusual shelter! Here in CA our shelters and rescues are filled beyond their capacity with dogs being destroyed every day!! The rescue organizations will sometimes ship or transport dogs to you. Branch out to neighboring cities. Google rescues organizations for certain breeds. (They take mixed breeds also.) For example by the state that you are in........"German Shepard rescue in CA."OwnedByTheCow":37sh9ry0 said:Okay. I have been really looking into shelters. Around here dogs will only spend about 2 days in a shelter before getting a home which makes it quite hard to adopt though I really would prefer adopting over buying.
