"Keep saying this to yoursellf: The reason she looks so adorable is a PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER took the photo!"

Yup, I agree.  The photographer has made very good use of light to compliment the pups coloring and accentuate lively highlights from the eyes.

HOWEVER... I'd be rather leery of the integrity of the photographer after noticing this subtle detail...

Since this seller is a very well respected member of the GSL world, I seriously doubt this photo is "doctored" in any way.

Who cares, anyway- the pup is just drop dead gorgeous! I doubt its doctored- a professional would know to remove it. Probably a shadow. Maybe I should go see, myself <---oh dear, the devil made me say that....

nooooooooooooo, devil. I am NOT going..nope, not going. just gonna keep looking at her on the web till her pic is gone and marked as sold. (but she does have Missie T eyes...) Someone is gonna be really really lucky....The eyes are the window to the soul...

Well Jackie & Marjorie I do understand what you are saying, as after my boy died, still having a terrible time dealing with it, I went to a kennel here (Vista, CA) who raised and traIned, well I am not sure what but GSD for one.  I ALMOST BOUGHT A PARTIALLY TRAINED PIECE OF SHIT, NO PAPERS, NO CERF'S BUT HE WAS STARTED IN BASIC obEDIENCE and would make me a fine service dog, so they were saying.  I came damn close, they tested the bitch I brought to them and I got the hell out of there and NEVER looked back.

But I have to say, still teary and a broken heart I came dam close to buying this piece of crap.  HOwever had I seen a bitch like this one with all the health checks, the quality and the care that has gone into her, I would have probably gone home with a puppy.  That is how vulnerable I was.  I look back now and am so glad I did not do this but he did not have anything, looked like a pound puppy with no health or pedigree behind him.  NOT in her case, she is well bred,  health checks galore, beautiful to boot.  I would grab her.  I have been to this breeders home and know the dogs are well cared for, but of course there are no guarantees.  BOL  Nan

From the rave reviews, she sounds like one hell of a good breeder, and if I was ever deliberately looking again ( way too traumified at this point to even think about it), I would most definitely look there. The problem is ME- guarantees dont mean much because I could never ever return a pup, and right now, after all I have been through with Missie T and CJ, it would kill me if I ran across a problem. When I purchase a dog, there is no going back. Dogs are not disposable to me. Once that dog is mine, heaven and earth will be moved to give the dog the care it needs- in for a penny, in for a pound...

so as you can see, I go all out for my dogs. I just couldnt chance something else happening. This all happened while Missie T was deep into her DM. Caring for 2 ill dogs at once, at my age, just burned me out

cj after elbow surgery in custom made mommie shirt/elbow socks so he wouldnt need cone

Missie t same time I was caring for CJ, dm took her down.. lifting her into her cart several times a day, weighing the same as me...noooo- I am too traumatized to ever touch the stove again :(
