There
is a passion to our breeding program here, to preserve the old, pure
bloodlines. I've continued to researched the GSD
bloodlines
and
strive to breed for the Big, Bold & Beautiful
look. The German Shepherd dog fits right in
with the family environment, that is why my husband & I love
them
so (we had Shepherds before & during the time, the
kids were small).
I was looking for the German Shepherd I remembered as a child, the one
that would play with us in the yard & protect us from
strangers. A
Shepherd that was squarely built with muscle front & back, with
a
very slight angulation in it's hip and a pretty head and a huggable
personality. Our dogs are observant, obedient and a pleasant member of
the household, quiet in their own environment, especially with children
and other animals, and at ease with adults. Overall, they present a
harmonious picture of innate nobility, alertness and self-confidence.

Our foundation females *
Current
female
pups we hope to grow into Hannah & Britney's legacy!!!
Burgandy
has matured into an exquisite 88 lb. female. Her temperament is
as sweet as sugar, though will stand her ground when needed. Dam
of..the '09 H
litter and '10 J litter, a mix of both long & smooth coats.
Hannah has been all that we had hoped
for and more. 85 lbs at 8 yrs old.
Her training was a breeze as she loves to learn and do anything you
want to, from basic commands to the agility
course. She is so gentle with children and patient too.
Pairing her with Bear has proven quite successful !
Dam to the B,D,G, I and K litters, Hannah is now retired
from breeding. And is taking her position as Alpha-Grandma in our pack.
Watch her
Grow and see her coat color
change !

comes easy for Brit and she loves
to be by my side, or with anyone who will play fetch with her. Her
drives are strong, she loves her jobs and is a devoted mother.
Dam to the A,C,E & F litters. Brit is now retired
from breeding, but still
very active and is GrandDam extroidinaire...just ask her!
We
carefully screen all potential puppy buyers and require a huge amount
of information before deeming them an acceptable home. Yes, even for
"pet quality" puppies.
Am also willing to refuse a sale if I do not think the person would
make a good life-long home for the pup.
I guarantee health (genetic, congenital) hips

The parents of our foundation females are large German
Shepherds, and
they are excellent in health and temperaments. AKC registered and Hip
& Elbows GOOD.
The father Kiesthaus's
Magnum Force is 30" at the shoulder and is a long
coat.
Hannahs mother Royalair's
Von Zoey is 28" tall and weighs 88.7 lbs. and is a
standard coat.
They are AKC registered and are of old German/American lines (no show
lines). Hannah has a nice blend of both while Brittany, is heavy with
German lines on her dams side, many with
obedience training Sch I, II, III .
We do not believe in kennels, so therefore, we only let our puppies go
into homes where they are raised as
part of a family, not as an outside or kennel dog. We feel Puppies are
at their happiest when they live in
homes especially with children, for this is where they grow up being
apart of a family.
The standard of the German Shepherd Dog has changed very little
from the original written by von Stephanitz in 1899: "to breed
Shepherds is to breed working dogs." What follows is the standard of
the World Union of German Shepherd Dogs (WUSV) that was established
under the auspices of the SV. There has been a movement toward greater
uniformity in the standard. There is still nothing that will help you
decide what the length of croup should be, or whether a dog is
over-angulated in the rear.
Keep in mind that the original use of the German Shepherd Dog (GSD) was
that of a herding dog, and required that the structure was necessary to
trot with ease and endurance. Since it acted as a mobile fence to keep
the flock away from adjacent crops in a largely unfenced countryside.
Because of this, it had to move at a relatively fluent, even pace, with
a minimal wear and tear on the dog's physique. The Shepherd also had to
be able to stand for a reasonable time without tiring. The body weight
must be correctly distributed and supported by his limbs. Any weakness
in the ligaments and joints force the body to compensate and
consequently lead to a loss of endurance must be faulted.
GENERAL APPEARANCE
The immediate impression of the GSD is dog slightly long in comparison
to its height, with a powerful and well muscled body. The relation
between height and length and the position and symmetry of the limbs
(angulation) are so interrelated as to enable a far-reaching and
enduring gait. The coat should be weatherproof. A beautiful appearance
is desirable but is secondary to his usefulness as a working dog.
Sexual characteristics must be well defined and unmistakable.
A true-to type GSDs give the impression of innate strength,
intelligence and suppleness, with harmonious proportions and nothing
either overdone or lacking. His whole manner should make it perfectly
clear that he is sound in mind and body, and has the physical and
mental attributes to make him always ready for tireless action as a
working dog. With an abundance of vitality, he must be tractable enough
to adapt himself to each situation and to carry out his work willingly
and with enthusiasm. He must posses the courage and determination to
defend himself and his master's possessions, should the need arise. He
must be observant, obedient and a pleasant member of the household,
quiet in his own environment, especially with children and other
animals, and at ease with adults. Overall, he should present a
harmonious picture of innate nobility, alertness and self-confidence.

Testimonial;
"Judy
and Mona are really a blessing to all dog owners who are committed to
having a dog that is well behaved, respectful and a joy to have
around. Training is not a destination, it is a
journey. Your tips, techniques and commitment to the owners
and dogs ensure long-term success!
This
is more than obedience training. It's a "whole-istic"
approach that involves the whole person and the whole dog
psychologically, socially and behaviorally. The techniques I
have learned have certainly made me the kind of person my dog respects
and loves and my dog the kind of dog everyone says they wish
their dog was like. Thank you!

The
above link is an awesome resource in
understanding the current controversy and ingredients inside most
brands of available pet dog food. So much has changed so rapidly in the
area of canine nutrition, and continues to do so. Some insist BARF is
the safest way to go in light of all the controversy. We use Breeder's
Choice Pinnacle or TOTW with good results, and recommend you do your
homework and provide a quality diet to avoid a host of issues poor
nutrition can cause. In light of the horrors of last year's recalls, we
know any old kibble won't do! For those not convinced by the
fact that there is not a single tooth in a dog's head meant to grind
grain possibly being a good reason to consider grains may not be the
best primary protein source, or for just insuring optimal vitality, we
recommend NuVet, an excellent supplement !
