Breeding of German Shepherd Dogs
The international standard of breed is pre-eminently the guide line for the breeder. Breeding German Shepherd Dogs has to be done according to the determined norms of the breed. The breeder parents at least have to fulfill a series of basic conditions, laid down by the basic breeding regulation of the union. More ambitious breeders can volunteer to handle stronger breeding norms. When they fulfil these norms they can get the title of "hallmark breeder".
The Sinologist Commission follows very consciously the breeding actions within the union. Monthly listings of available litters and puppies are published in our union magazine and put at the disposal of everyone who is interested in the German Shepherd Dog.
Objectives.
Breeding is not increasing but improving. Breeding has to be done in a well-considered way, so that of each litter reasonably can be expected that there will be a constructive line with respect to the breed image. The aim of breeding is producing German Shepherd Dogs that, in their appearance, character and nature, meet all the requirements of the breed image that is described in the international standard of breed.
The main objectives are the appearance of breed (breed type, exterior, anatomy), character and health. Under no circumstances breeding can be done at the expense of a good character only or the physically well functioning of the German Shepherd Dog.
Very important is that we never lose sight of the welfare of the breeding animals and puppies. Good accommodation, care, food and much attention for the animals are indispensable. Breeding requires caring love.
Guidelines.
One doesn't breed with dogs and bitches before they are about two years old and it's very preferably that they have obtained a hallmark class on an examination on breeding value. If the breeder wants to fulfil the most strict union requirements and if wants to be qualified for the puppy mediation of the union, then the following conditions apply:
| • | the breeding animals have a good physical shape and health. |
| • | they have the certificate of endurance (U.V.). In this test of running 20 kilometres the dog has to proof that his lungs and heart function well and that he is physical fit. |
| • | the hips are checked on hip dysplasia. For this aim X-rays are taken and examined by officially recognized impartial instances. Breeding animals have to be free of nearly free of hip dysplasia. |
| • | de breed appearance must have been examined by a recognized judge for German Shepherd Dogs. On a beauty show or a club match of the breed union the animals must have obtained by preference the qualification "Excellent" or "Very Good". The qualification "Good" counts as an absolute minimum. |
| • | The characters have to be reliable and uninhibited. The animals must have proved to be able to achieve working performances. At this the German Shepherd Dog has to show that he is sufficiently chargeable. The dogs have to show that they are obedient and manageable and that they have sufficient passion for trailing. These working performances must be proved via an amount of working tests with gun shot (training tests). |
| • | Succeeding in a test for Accompaniment Dog (Reliability in Traffic) |
| • | Succeeding in a test for a Training Certificate (SchH of IP) |
| • | Approved on an examination on breeding value of the breed union. |
