For most people involved in the sport of Schutzhund, breeding is a secondary priority to training for and obtaining titles. Those with females may breed one litter a year, while the males may be used mainly for breeding to bitches within the same geographic area. Regardless of whether you are an active breeder producing multiple litters of German Shepherd puppies each year or an infrequent breeder, finding the perfect mate for your male or female can be a very challenging task.
