GSD kennel names & bloodlines
|
|
This list includes only advertised
kennel names (public domain). Some of the breeders listed are members of
the "United Schutzhund Clubs of America" (also called "USA" or "USCA"), the only GSD Registry in north America trying to comply with international FCI and WUSV breed
rules. These breeders are doing their very best to breed Real German
Shepherds, similar to the way they are being bred in Germany under SV
rules, and in many other countries under FCI and WUSV rules.
Unfortunately, while some breeders like to use German sounding names
to indicate their German bloodlines, some American show breeders are also
using German sounding names in an attempt to hide their American show
bloodlines.
I have spent countless hours over a period of several months scrutinizing
any information I could find, to establish an
approximate starting base for this list. I
hope to use this base to build a comprehensive and reasonably correct
bloodline database (the progress depends on the help I receive), so novices
have a chance to find the most suitable breeders according to the bloodlines they use (as well as a few other indicators), and to help them
separate honest from dishonest breeders.
If your kennel is on the list and you feel it should have received a
different rating, please use
one of these forms to provide
additional information. Simple e-mails can not be verified and have to be
ignored.
