As difficult as this is, I believe every breeder that is selling a puppy (pet or breeding quality) should require in their contract that if the puppy dies (not from an accident) then a neocropsy will be performed on the puppy and provided to the owner. This is information that is needed to help with this breed. Germany has never told the full story on the health of these dogs and if new breeders are just selling this puppies without people understand there might be health issues than how can anyone be saying they are interested in the "betterment of the breed". We have to know how many of these puppies are dying of LS or autoimmune diseases. We just do not know.

This should be the commitment from both the breeder and the owner of helping with this new breed/variation.
