    Browning Haus German Shepherds - Our dog's height at 1 year old

    Browning Haus German Shepherds

    (7 reviews)

    Got our pup from here 2 years ago. He is a good boy. No health problems as advertised. He is 91…read morepounds.

    We purchased a black and tan male German Shepherd from Browning Haus German Shepherds. At pickup (9…read moreweeks old), he weighed only 8 pounds, which is significantly underweight for that age. He also had blood in his urine and had to go on antibiotics 3 times. We were not aware at the time that this could indicate a serious issue. At his 3-month veterinary checkup, he was still only 8 pounds and was diagnosed with dwarfism. He has since been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and has very significant skin and fur issues. He is over 1 year old now and weighs 29 lbs. This was very upsetting, and we contacted the breeder. She did offer to take him back, but we chose to keep him knowing he would likely have a shorter lifespan, and the decision to return him would have been extremely difficult as we were already attached to him. His life span is estimated at 2-5 years and we want to offer him the best life possible. We instead agreed on a discount toward a future puppy. However, communication after that became confusing. Different potential replacement puppies and mothers were mentioned at different times, and it was difficult to get clear, consistent information. When it came time to move forward, the pricing also changed from what we originally discussed,, it was increased by $500.00 and we were never able to finalize a replacement puppy. We were told we would be contacted when a new litter was available, and the business owner continually failed to reach out to us, despite seeing litters on their website and a sale on AKC website. While we love our dog and appreciate that a return was offered, the experience left us feeling that communication and clarity around health expectations and replacement agreements were disappointing and inadequate. I would do research on dwarfism, especially with German Shepards. The data suggests these issues could stem from unethical breeding practices. I believe the owner knew about his genetic defect and chose to hide that information in order to make a sale.
