Find a breeder. They are cheaper than you think. The local pet store wanted $3,800. The got her from a breeder for $600.
Shelters are great too. My moms Shepard is from a German Shepard rescue. However... Some require a lot of time and paperwork. My sister was rejected by a shelter because she wasn't married. She was living with her fiancé for 3 years but that didn't matter. They even came to my moms house to check on living conditions.
That's how I feel right now.
