The world is rich in natural resources and other means that are originally provided for the people to survive. However as a result of the viciousness of the people over and above their lack of knowledge and awareness, these natural reserves are rapidly declining and as a result people are scavenging for a way to survive.
There are a lot of impoverished people these days that are living in a hand-to-mouth existence. There are very limited resources now and some people, just like those living in Africa are already fighting over what is left. People are now living in a dog-eat-dog society.
Good thing there are some mining opportunities still available for people who are living in areas where the mineral properties are still high. Gold exploration as well as diamond exploration is being done to check the availability of these resources in specific areas. Those who are interested are trained and are given the opportunity to find a way to uplift their lives and find a decent living for their families.
There are some joint ventures being done by some reputable mining companies and the government to salvage what is still left and find some ways on how to develop this industry. One very good example is one of the joint ventures Mauritius that is helping a lot of people and societies in general to have a better income.
People, especially those who are living in Third World countries, need to understand that dependency will lead them nowhere. They have to act and work hard for themselves and for their family to survive. Another thing that these projects are teaching to the people is the value of perseverance. They can not be contented with what little that they have when the world can offer them a lot of wealth. They just need to tap their faculties and join hands with some people who are willing to give them a boost and guide them through.

Where can i find a breeder? how much will it cost altogether? where r cheaper places. i dont care about show dogs and expensive trained german shepherds.
[Ben Campbell], I don't think you are ready for a GSD. You need to find out what a GSD is all about - just being a casual couch potato ISN'T it! Being left untrained ISN'T it Of course you should not buy a ready-trained dog, you need to learn how to train a dog yourself (including the importance of helping your dog to love & respect you), and so the branches of the GSD Council of Australia hold training classes (for manners, for obedience competitors, for show competitors), and there are all-breeds training clubs if you don't have a GSD club within range.
First off, Australia has 5 types of GSD: ● Specialist show dogs, whose parents have passed a Breed Survey; usually those litters have a sire or 2 grandparents born outside Australia. ● DogSport dogs, whose parents have passed SchH, and usually have both parents born outside Australia. ● All-breeds show dogs, usually with a parent or grandparent that is an Australian Champion ● Obedience dogs , usually with parents having at least a CDX; the sire is likely to be an AOCh.
In all 4 cases, both parents possess ANKC registration, official hip & elbow certificates, and either posses a haemophilia negative certificate or come from Australian lines proven clear of haemophilia. Apart from parental registration, those requirements weren't the ANKC's idea - it was talked into them by the GSDCAustralia and the Australian club for Rottweilers. The ANKC was also talked into NOT registering any off-coloured GSD or Rottweiler. The result is that anyone who understands BIF-scores for hips & elbows can tell how safe or risky is the litter they are considering getting a pup from - ask a vet how much an operation to correct hip dysplasia or elbow dysplasia will cost you, and you will start to appreciate how much of a favour those clubs are doing people like you. Read about haemophilia and you will discover another favour you (and your future pet) have been done. In addition, the non-registration of off-colours means that pups from any of those litters will LOOK like a GSD, although a percentage might end up as long-coats
But, as I said, there is a FIFTH type: ● Crap from ignorant and/or greedy BYBs. The parents will have NO Breed Survey Classification, NO show certificates, NO training qualifications. They probably have NO hip or elbow or haemophilia certificates either, and so their pups cannot be registered. The "breeders" are probably no cleverer than you at looking at a pedigree and assessing whether it is relatively safe or relatively risky for various genetic problems, and they certainly cannot risk supplying you with a meaningful Guarantee. Although their pups might SEEM cheap, by the time you've paid the extra vet bills that tend to be required during the lifetime of dogs from such unproven ancestry you will probably have paid MORE than you would during the lifetime of a pup from a reputable breeder who supplies a meaningful printed & signed Guarantee stating what compensation will be provided should any of the genetic "unthinkables" manage to sneak past the testing & pedigree analysis done.
Dogs from all 5 sources can end up in rescue, but expect most to come from the 5th category.
Cost is totally individual. The Australian moderator of my chat group got her first GSD from a pet shop - which means poor breeding. She calls him ugly, but has trained him to be lovable as a dog, and there are lots of photos of him sleeping with the first baby. She got her second GSD "for free" by being vigilant & patient. It is a show bit.ch who had done ok BUT the breeder discovered that one of her parents was a producer of a serious genetic defect, and this breeder wasn't prepared to risk breeding from an almost-certain carrier of that recessive defect (a recessive doesn't affect the carrier, but it sure affects any individual that inherits a copy from both its sire and its dam). So the bit.ch went on condition that the breeder could reclaim her at any time during the trial period, and after the trial period she was to be neutered. The follow-up inspection some weeks later was fine; my moderator paid to have the bit.ch neutered.
So: • JOIN some of the 300+ YahooGroups dedicated to various aspects of living with GSDs - each group's Home page tells you what they want to discuss, and how active they are - and use them to LEARN about GSDs and what their owners need to do & provide. • LOOK up http://www.gsdl.info/ for quality contacts or • RING the SPCA and your Dog Pound and whatever GSD Rescue groups they refer you to, if you are happy to take a gamble and be patient while a dog learns to trust you after being abandoned or mistreated, whatever it was that put it into needing to be rescued (one of my blind penfriends trained a rescued bit.ch to be her guide dog). • Realise that any of the 2 above will require to check out YOU, your lifestyle and your property before allowing you to have one of their dogs. • Work out which kind of training you want to be involved in, and find the nearest club or clubs that train you for that, and find out where & when their classes are.
But NEVER SWAP YOUR MONEY FOR A PUP AT A PET SHOP OR AN IGNORANT BYB - it just encourages them to keep on producing crap and ruining the reputation of the breeds they claim to be selling. Les P, owner of GSD_Friendly: http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/GSD_Friendly "In GSDs" as of 1967
