Those that she does give to private citizens have to go through rigorous background, personality, and character checks and they run anywhere from $6,500 to $12,000. I'd love to get a German-line GSD as I love those dogs, Bear is part GSD, but a good one from a reputable breeder is going to cost a lot... I just don't have the money to get such a top of the line dog like that (trying to keep it under $1,000 and I've seen GSDs go for as little as $3,000- still out of my range). Unless, of course, you know something I don't...
These guys are my neighbors...they "seem" to have a pretty good thing going. I haven't bought anything through them so I haven't gone through it thoroughly, but you might want to check it out and ask questions. If nothing else, it is a pretty drive with a nice view of Pike's Peak through the meadow.

I got really lucky with my dog...right place at the right time. I'll post up a pic later.
