I've known Tracy from the start. I have bloodlines from her A litter. I've watched her work and show her dogs for over 25 years. Tracy lives and breathes her dogs, that is ALL she does. She is NOT supported by a husband, she does it all herself. Her 2010 Canadian Sieger - VA Ichi v Bullinger - is the grandson of Canadian Sieger Brew v Bullinger. I was there when Tracy, herself, put a SchH3 on Brew over 22 years ago. He ended his years, living in pampered comfort and style on a cozy bed in her living room.
I have seen Tracy receive honours from top German judges, trainers, and handlers. You don't get to be as successful as Bullinger Shepherds - with the first class reputation that Tracy has single-handedly built - without also having first class ethics and integrity.
Her idea of dogs with beauty AND brains sounds pretty good to me. And, apparently, to a whole lot of other people!

I don't take anyone's word for shit when it comes to dogs, unless I know that person well and I know what kind of dogs they like. I suggest doing to look at plenty of dogs and decide what kind you like. What is "Everything a GSD should be" to one person, is a dog severely lacking in several areas or a dog that is over the top according to someone else.
Go see what kind of dogs they are and decide for yourself. I've trained a few Bullinger dogs, definitely not my style. While the owner was very happy with her dogs, i can't say I would have the same descriptions of them that the owner gave everybody, not by a long shot.

I have my moments, but it's probably all downhill after this

The question was is the kennel reputable. The answer is yes.

Zdog, the poster is looking for a showline kennel. You arent fond of Bullinger dogs so perhaps you can recommend a showline kennel that does have the type of dogs the poster is looking for.

how do I know what the poster is looking for? That's why I told them to quit listening to people they don't know and get out and see dogs. Find the dogs THEY like then get one. The poster doesn't know me, I don't know them. Bullinger could very well have the dogs they love, but seriously, how people describe them (any kennel) and how someone else might describe them are often worlds apart. The only way to know is to get out and see and experience.
Where those people I train with use words like outstanding and strong, I see barely passable and pretty weak. My fun dog is a huge pain in the ass to some, not enough for others. If you don't know me personally how are you going to know how to take my assesment of a dog? WHen they're just people on the interent talking about dogs they like, people need to take it for what it's worth, and it's not much, at least not when it comes to the substance of a dog.
Sure the comments about being upstanding and standing behind their breedings and stuff are important, but unless you know what you're looking for in a dog and have found someone producing those dogs, you have a lot of searching to do and it isn't on the internet.
