Is this true, is a single sex litter a sign of some genetic fault ?
No. Just breeder preference and stupidity. I know several k9 and PP dog breeders who pray for all or high majority male litters, lol.

While out last night walking my dogue I met a lady walking a male 15week GSD pup. We spoke for a few minuets about each others dogs. The lady told me something I found very interesting and never heard off before. She told me that her dog was from a litter of 5 male pups and that they were handed into a shelter at two weeks because the breeder (probably BYB) belived the litter was flawed because it was all male. Is this true, is a single sex litter a sign of some genetic fault ?

The laws of genetics and random variation would dictate the sex of pups in a litter. I would call it a crap shoot and figure the odds! Nature have a way of making her own decisions. It is humans who usually do not understand the natural way of things. -
Never heard of it...But than I have heard even more stupid reasons for dogs being put into shelters. If you don't want them than any excuse will do I guess ;)
