Where can I get a German Shepherd?
I live in Southern California and I’m looking for a PURE-BREED German Sheperd puppy.I want it to be pure because mixes aren’t very trustworthy, and it has to be a baby so we can train it on our own. I looked at petfinder.com but there’s always mixes. Are there any sites where I can find one? 10points to best answer.
I don’t know what you mean by trustworthy,many GSD mixes are great dogs. A well bred GSD pup from genetically-tested parents is the most reliable choice as far as health & temperament go. You’ll need to contact GSD clubs in your area to get a referral to those breeders. If you’re getting a puppy, here’s some Information (make sure to ask & see the parent’s hip, elbow & cerf scores, as well as those of previous breeding of the same parents if possible):

These rescues often have puppies (some are mixed) but many older puppies & adult dogs are there who have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and temperament tested:
