Well, she was bred last time because she got pyo after her last heat. Since that litter was small (3 puppies) it was recommended that we breed her again - but this time it didn't take (after two artificial inseminations).
Maybe her body is just saying "No I need a break." Or maybe she's done.
That would be a tragedy. Her father died last year - rather young. While he did sire quite a few litters it wasn't nearly as many as he could have (and many agree he was what a German shepherd should be by FCI, Sieger, WUSV-SV etc.. standards.
I don't think she is done but I think this could have been an off-heat - or there is something with the sire because he previously had an issue (even though his sperm count was OK at our vet).

I have a question that someone brought up the last time I was in Germany. Are German Shepherds just called Shepherds in Germany?
