Hi there, I am very new to these forums and am just wondering what information people have on the eastern-European shepherd, or other similar breeds. I have spent a considerable amount of time researching what dog is best suited to our family, and together we decided that we believed that a shepherd dog is the right choice for us. I particularly like the look of the Eastern European shepherd as they are less prone to hip and elbow dysplasia than many other more common breeds are. If you have any info on where in Australia I could find a breeder of this dog, or any others like it I would greatly appreciate it. The main preferances my family and I have for a dog is that it needs to be intelligent, good with kids, a large breed and not particularly prone to health problems. Any info at all regarding any of this would be very helpful :)
