well, i wasnt so worried about the spelling. i didnt know that was something i had to worry about on the site.

It not. Don't worry about it,.
Trust me, most people on this forum aren't like that...just ignore the nasty ones..

It's not a mattee of being nasty. It's a matter of knowing what you own if you plan on breeding. The owner's communications are the first part of the dog's resume. Breeder's aren't inclinced to want to spend time educating someone who can't bother to do even a basic research

Good grief people. I think it's fairly clear that the OP is a child. And even if not, clearly they have a long way to go and this is definately in the "dream" stage of their planning. I find it rediculous that people seem to only come on here to tell everyonen what they know, doesn't seem like they really care about the situtation. Just reading their own posts.

I forgot they take care of all of that.. They take them to the vet and such plus pay for it and show us papers about there health

My breeding questions werent to the op.
I gave her some basic questions to ask (or her parents to ask) nefore considering a dog from this program.she asked how to know if this program was good and any experiences with the idea. Her thread just got sidetracked by anothee person's breeding question.

OP, if they aren't working and titling the dogs, I wouldn't consider them. If they ARE then they would have to be rehoming older dogs that have already finished their working careers which could be several years old. Sorry that your question was hijacked.
But the info is good for you too. If you want a GSD then you want to make sure to get a happy healthy member of the family.

This sounds like a "too good to be true" kind of situation to me. Co-ownership and the breeder retaining breeding rights is very common in purebred dogs, but it's almost never a situation where the breeder takes on ALL of the financial responsibilities. In the co-owned dogs that I've seen through the vet I work for, the owner who is not the breeder is the one responsible for paying for all of the vet bills and all of the health testing, and all of the class fees for training the dog, and all, or at least most, of the entry fees for showing the dog. When it is time to spay/neuter the dog, whether because they have had the number of litters that the breeder will allow or because it has been determined by the breeder that the dog is not worthy of breeding, then the non-breeder owner is the one who is usually responsible for paying for the surgery too.

As for spelling, on an online forum where there is little else to go on besides spelling and grammar to make a "first impression" yes, spelling is important. It shows a certain level of "education" so to speak. And when it comes to breeding dogs, which is a little bit of a touchy subject anyway thanks to the pet overpopulation issue, it gets even more important. I will admit, if someone can't even spell the name of their chosen breed properly I take that as a sign that they don't know that much about the breed. Because in my life experience, it's turned out to be true more often than not. If a breeder, or someone who is thinking about breeding, consistently misspells the name of their breed, in my personal experience it usually means that they may well love and adore their dogs but they are breeding either just to experience the cute puppies, or for money. Either of which is the wrong reason to breed a dog, and are huge contributing factors to the thousands of unwanted dogs euthanized in shelters every year.
