Hi Doydie: Her name is Sage and she is a German Sherpard. My daughter has two and one of them is the half brother. They have the same father. She is from Kentucky. A friend of my son has a great big farm that is strickly for breeding Shepards and traing them for show, a pet, police, and the government. They are exceptional dogs. They have 100 % German bloodlines. The line started in Germany and all the dogs have the German line. There is no American Shepard Bloodline. I never new that there is two lines. To me a shepard is a shepard. But when you are in the breeding business just like anything else you have to know your facts. I am sure we will make out just great. She is lying right beside me as I am writing to you.
