A couple yrs ago, my husband bought me a solid black german shepherd puppy from SmithFarms. We drove from NY to Minn to pick out the best one. I had an all-black GSD back in the 80s. Total respect for the breed, esp the all-blacks -- smartest, most stunning, loving, protective, loyal, & they know & understand your thoughts & feelings (better than most humans). My Bo (short for BoDiddly Bodacious BoJangles BoCephus etc) exceeded all expectations. Smart, playful, strong, active, alert, healthy, great friend, companion, family member, bundle of love, wrecking ball, & big doofus. GSDs (of any color) are not for everyone -- they need a LOT of attention, space, patience, interaction, training, grooming, love, & guidance. But even with all that, if u want to end up with great, u need to start with great, which does not happen by chance, luck, or coincidence. In my heart, I thank SmithFarms for being so good at what they do, bc I'd never have this great dog if they didn't produce such great puppies. TYSM.
