Vom Gottschalk is an unscrupulous backyard breeder. Their website claims "The dogs we select to breed are those that have been through the strict testing and competitions to meet the SV standards in Germany, guaranteeing nothing but the finest quality. Careful studies go into the planning of each of our litters. All of our litters are registered with the AKC and SV."

Absolutely false. NONE of their dogs have been breed surveyed (KKL) - none would be permitted to be bred in Germany and there is absolutely NO chance of an SV registration for litters. Only one female has any titles or SV registration. They have a stud listed who is a juvenile and lacks ANY breed, temperment or health certification, let alone an SV breed survey and permission to breed. 

Backyard breeders like this give a bad name to the truly diligent breeders who seek to improve the breed, not make a quick buck off of non-breeding quality pets.

You Opinion Not Facts

AUTHOR: VonGottschalk - (USA)

POSTED: Friday, June 30, 2017

Hello, your concern is appreciated but I believe you have let your own opinions interrupt your judgement. You have never purchased a dog from me but you still choose to leave a defamation review which leads me to believe that you are just another breeder in the state who is perhaps doing this to give yourself an advantage or you might just be an ordinary person who left a bad review to somewhere you have never been to.

I do not consider myself a backyard breeder because I'm not found breeding anything and everything to anybody. Out of my entire 2 females, only ONE is not from Germany and can be attacked in the way that you are. She was my first female, the one that I purchased to start my breeding program and knowing what I know now, yes I could of started better but isn't breeding a learning experience? You are judging me over the beginning of my program not considering that we all start somewhere, and not considering that what I'm doing now is far beyond where I started. You also accuse me of doing this for a quick buck, I have gone a year and other times more without putting out litters inbetween but I normally have 1 litter a year and maybe, just maybe 2 which I have only done once or twice in the same year.

Your also attacking me over not improving the breed, well according to your logic improving the breed is exactly what I'm doing. My one female that isn't titled has only been bred to the best dogs in America, do your research better, she has only been bred to VA1 Tuareg von Bad-boll and a son off of VA4 Labo von Schollweiher who hold ipo3's, KKL1's, show ratings and a1's on everything. So I'm confused what your true purpose with this is. Now to this male that you are insulting over him being younger. That male is a puppy that I sold from my Oxana and Kosmo litter which was one of the best litters in the state, well that male got brought back to me by the family of the original owner who passed away recently so that story goes well beyond your observation. If I decide to move forward early with one of my dogs its because I know exactly what that dog capable of and I'm expecting nothing but great things from it.

In Minnesota you will find many breeders who are now breeding sons to mothers, breeding 3-4 different breeds in their program, importing dogs from fradulatent countries that are known to sell titles and health testing results, and others have puppy mills that are covered by pretty websites. So no my friend I'am not a backyard breeder, I'm a hobby breeder who keeps improving my program with hopes to compete and produce my own show winning gsds. Thank you for your concern.
