Whether you are looking for a German Shepherd dog for protection, companionship, or competition, Bundaberg can help you find the right dog. There are two qualities that set Bundaberg apart from the rest: The first is a deep knowledge of the German Shepherd breed. The second, and more important, is honesty with ourselves and our clients. We take the time to listen to your needs, concerns, and opinions and help match you with the right dog.

Good German Shepherd breeding starts with good females of good families. A Good family is determined by the quality of siblings more so than the fame of parents and grand parents. It is far better to breed with a mother who has excellent structure, health and character and whose siblings display similar qualities, than to another who is a top ranking show dog with a superb pedigree but whose siblings were rejects.
Genetic power, far from being a biblical list of famous up-line names, is more a matter of soundness in the immediate family tree--brothers and sisters of the breeding pair, and brothers and sisters of their immediate parents. The milestone producers of our time come from strong litters: The "L" litter Wienerau, the "Q" litter Arminius, the "P" litter Wildsteiger Land, suggesting that the genetic power of an individual dog like Lido Wienerau, or Quando Arminius, or his mother Palme Wildsteiger Land were animals who emerged from a strong sibling quality. This scenario concentrates the "good genes" into a more homozygous "package". A Unique German Shepherd Breeding Method and Client Policy
-
We start with mothers of excellent health, structure and temperament. These mothers must have at least one or more litter mates who themselves are excellent in similar ways. This ensures family strength essential to establish a strong genetic concentration. -
We do not breed to the latest import or to famous names on a pedigree (a common mistake among inexperienced breeders) but rather to sires who have convinced us with proven results. These males must also live up to the same criteria set for females in point 1. -
We also recognize that many sires are excellent themselves but have a shallow gene pool or are unable to produce good offspring. We avoid "glitter" dogs with flashy show-wins yet with poor or no records as producers.
-
We are our first clients! We breed in order to improve on the previous generation. We breed to shape the future of our kennel and create a strong foundation. Our goal is to produce puppies who, on the average, are better than each individual parent.
-
We keep the superstars . We don't fool around with your expectations or lie to get your money. If you truly want a top prospect be prepared to wait until three things have happened: a) Is old enough to show its true potential (at least four months of age) b) Is old enough to have preliminary hips and elbows done (four to six months of age) Shows temperament consistent with those who develop into strong working dogs.
-
We evaluate each puppy fully and price them according to their "REAL" quality. Then we disclose the reasons why each is ranked in a particular way at that age.

A Standard for Judges
2006
General Appearance:
The first impression of a good dog judge should be that of a tough-minded but fair, alert and gentle specimen. Muscular ability and nimbleness are desirable but not mandatory, as soft living seems unavoidable in the breed.The judge should be stamped with the look of nobility and justice - difficult to define but always unmistakable after the show. The good judge has a distinct personality, marked by a direct and fearless, but not hostile expression of self-confidence, and that certain aloofness, which does not lend itself to immediate and indiscriminate friendships....or at least does not admit to such friendships until later, back in the motel! Secondary sex characteristics should be strongly marked, lest, when the judge hands you a ribbon, you say, "Thank you,Sir," to a lady, or, vice versa. The question of mon-orchids or crypt-orchids should be left to your florist.
Coat:
In cold climates the judge should be equipped with a double coat. Underwear may vary with the season. At no time however, should a judge shed in the ring.
Proportion:
The most desirable proportions for a female judge are 38-23-36. However, you may settle for a 23-23-23, or, as I have at times, 22-35-48. the shape of a male judge is less important, but great hulk and a commanding appearance is greatly preferred.
Pigment:
Let's not go into this again. All colours are permissible !!! I have not personally seen a purple judge, but I guess there is always a first time.
Size:
The judge should be neither too short nor too tall. As a rule of thumb, if he must sink to the ground to pat the dog, he is probably too tall. On the other hand, if he has to jump into the air to check for testicles, then he is probably too short. Measurements should be taken from the top of the head with the hair parted or pushed down, so that it will only show the actual height of the judges' frame or structure. A judge of desirable size and proper flesh, should average between 70 and 340lbs, depending primarily on gender and how fat he /she is.
Gait:
Judges who tend to motivate on all fours should be avoided, as should those that who stagger and fall down a lot. Forward motion should be achieved by placing one foot in front of the other. Hopping is also permitted, and in fact, often makes for better showmanship.
Stance:
Whilst viewing the dogs the judge should stand in the middle of the ring, feet spread at a "parade rest", the right hand held firmly under the left armpit, with the left crossing over under the right armpit. The chin must be tucked solidly into the chest, eyes squinting. Once the judge has assumed this position, the steward should count the number of times the class circles. It that count should exceed 20, he might then unobtrusively poke the judge in the ribs. Older, more experienced judges have been known to doze off in this position, while younger specimens, particularly members of the party-going set, might still be so grassed from pre-show festivities, that they have passed out.
Disqualifying Faults:
Judges who whoop, holler or point, or who laugh hysterically at an exhibitor entering the ring with a particularly poor specimen, should be disqualified. Likewise, any judge who delays proceedings while handlers make out cheques in his favour in the ring, is not permitted to participate any further. Any judge who attacks a handler in the ring, is warned three times in writing, after which he must be dismissed. deafness in a judge is not a fault. In fact, slightly impaired hearing faculties are a distinct advantage, as the judge can not hear the rude comments from ringside, and will be able to literally "turn a deaf ear" to whispered propositions etc, from handlers.
