INTRODUCING
-Drago-vom-Abendst.jpg)
Thank you, Susan, for allowing us the opportunity to bring this fantastic stud into our breeding program!
Our dogs are the old line German Shepherds of carefully selected DDR (East German), Czech and Slovak, as well as old world West German bloodlines, bred for work and companionship. Our goal is to produce dogs characterized by sound temperament, high drive, intelligence, trainability, and outgoing personality. We want sensible dogs, gentle around children and other pets, friendly to guests, yet with the courage to handle work with confidence: loyal, loveable, legendary--the sort of dog many of us grew up only dreaming about.
Our dogs are chosen for our own work in Search and Rescue, Schutzhund, Obedience Competition, and Agility. Because we work our dogs, we know our dogs. From our powerful protection all purpose dogs coming from the best of European lines to our separate line of huggable longcoats, we desire in our dogs focus with a tireless work ethic. The ability to bond is what we treasure in our dogs and cultivate in our puppies.
Our selection of animals for breeding is quite rigid. After making sure that each breeding pair has certified hips and good health, we consider the temperament of the dogs. Only dogs that have nice balance proven through work are considered. With the health and temperament of the parents in good order, the other key to the success of our program is our neonatal puppy care. We begin from birth with a biosensory stimulation program, followed by a puppy enrichment plan similar to that of the Monks of New Skete. We are firm believers that the care given these pups during the early weeks of their life and thereafter is key to assuring sound, balanced adult dogs later in life.
Be sure to talk to us about your ideal dog and the characteristics important to you. Based on our knowledge of the parents and their bloodlines we will match you first to the litter which best suits you, then to the pup out of that litter which will best fit your lifestyle. Let us know in what field you wish to train your dog and we will make every effort to match you with a puppy of temperament appropriate to that field be it Police work, Schutzhund, or Personal Protection, to Personal Companion, Service Dogs, AKC Obedience, Agility, or Search and Rescue.
Feel free to contact us with any questions.
Talking about our dogs or training ideas is something we are happy to do.
