I would discuss it with your friend. Not in a confrontational way, but just to educate them for the future.

If your friend wanted a GSD, then the GSD club in your state is the best place. But it's too late now.

It's a big risk buying from pet shops and BYB'sas health and temperament are the last thing these lowlifes care about.

I would mention the above to your friend and also say that pounds and shelters have a few that need a good home and would be much cheaper.
