Mystifying, isn't it? And ESPECIALLY around children!
Vanity Post: This may not be appropriate for a Freep dog thread, but in light of the advise here to find a good breeder; we have been trying to find a good breeder for female Shiloh Shepherd pup to be raised in Arizona by our loving family. There are NO such breeders in Arizona that we’ve been able to find. Everything we’ve read indicates it’s a great family / children friendly dog with a big shadow, lots of love, and a small ego. So far we have not been able to get any listed breeder to return our queries. It seems to be a “closed loop” circle of people who breed these animals, and has been a bit frustrating. If anyone happens to know a breeder of these wonderful dogs who would actually respond to our wish to acquire one, we would appreciate some help. We do understand and have planned for that it won’t be inexpensive. Thanks in advance.
