We are looking at their Dutch Shepherds. My biggest hangup with the whole deal is that i cant get out there and actually meet the puppy before we get him. I have always been able to just go check out the dogs and see who does what and who jives with us and ea other and who doesnt. I know theres nothing bad on their web site, but who would put the not so great things up there or send the not so great things in email? =)

so im looking fo r the good, the bad and the ugly, which hopefully there isnt any of and only just good. Since they are literally half way across the country from us, its impossible to get out there and i am apprehensive about buying a pup almost sight unseen, if that makes sense.

Tell us about yourself: I am new to the breed. I have a 5 month old female that I got from a bad breeder. She is doing well now, but I wanted to help others avoid getting scammed like I did. I have been lurking for awhile now and decided to register when I saw a post about the breeder I purchased from.

I bought my female from Keely at Aachen Dutch shepherds. PM or email me and I'll tell you about my experience. It didn't end well. I don't want what happended to me to happen to you.
God bless,

Yes, and don't recommend anyone else doing so. Search for Keely McKee and find where she's talking a lot of game in the horse business and used to be in greyhounds. There's complaints on her with dogs & horses. I just don't think she's dealing in good bloodlines, as stated on her website, there's several people that never received any registry papers on her dutch shepherd pups.

If you have one of her dutch shepherds, take a good look at the greyhound breeds, there's too many traits that favor in my eyes. Then I'm seeing also the begian malinois but not the german shepherd. There's also greyhound traits coming out in the dog and that's no good.
