Hi Tom, 

Jeff and I thought you might like to see Gracie. She's an absolute joy. We love her so much, we'd like to buy another in a year or so.

You were right, her temperment is beautiful. She is calm and very intelligent and she's very easy to train.
Thank you for such a wonderful pet.

Linda and Jeff Leshner

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to the Chappells

Just want to tell you how happy we are with the male GSD, Chetan (Spirit of the Hawk), we purchased from you last summer. He was from your litter of May 22, 2004. He is a delightful puppy. Obedient and very quick to learn. Some little things he has just picked up for himself and surprises me by responding to things I really made no effort to teach him. Although the Christmas tree is an exception. He loves the soft ornaments -- of course this is our fault because we give him soft toys and he knows no difference. Can't get angry about that.

I must say he is the most vocal dog I have ever owned (and there have been many over my 63 years.) He is "talking" all the time. He never asks to go out or for a treat without some kind of vocalization. He is gentle and plays with my granddaughter, three cats, another GSD and a three-legged Rottweiler with care you would not expect from a 7-month old puppy. 

He is an absolute delight and we appreciate your good breeding program. We would recommend your animals to any dedicated animal lover and if in the future we expand our animal family we will definitely be in touch with you.

Once again Happy Holidays and thank you for one of the absolute delights of our lives.

Tom,    Thought you'd like to hear, I took Stormy to her second trial today and she double Q'd. She took first place in standard agility and second in jumpers with weaves. Needless to say we are very happy with her and she is an excellent dog around people, kids, and even other dogs now (took her awhile to calm down around other dogs).    I'll keep you up to date on her progress toward a title.    Hope all is well with your family and dogs,  Terri

Dear Thomas,  Thank you for the timely delivery and our family enjoys the puppy very much. It's good doing business with you.  Best wishes to you and your business.  Tim  From Boston Mass.

Hi Tom,  Thought you might enjoy seeing how this little guy is doing. He is doing great and he's not so little anymore! Congratulations on his dad.    Thanks, Andrea

Hi Tom,    We bought our dog from you last December. The sire was Ben and dam Beemer. Just wanted to let you know how happy we are with him. We named him Kahn. He is very intelligent and friendly, he has been taking classes since he was 10 weeks old. He is very well behaved and thinks everything through. He is a sweetheart and we love him. We have had him a couple of obedience trials. I am going to send you a couple of pictures following this email, thought you would like to take a look at him.   Candy and Eugene Matzan

Tom:    When we were given a list of German Shepherd breeders from Eastridge Animal Hospital, we called them all. You were the only one who got back to me, and promptly I might add. We got the most loving and healthy dog we could have ever hoped for. It was obvious how much time and effort you put into your dogs and we appreciated that. It's not just a job to you. After Zeus was so" tragically killed, you were there for us. You made it possible for us to get another pup and it helped us so much. Taz is equally loving and full of life and I credit that to you once again. I would recommend you to anybody that was looking for a German Shepherd" pup. Thanks again for everything.   Susan Feenin

Tom,  I just wanted to send you an e-mail to let you know how wonderful Addy has been doing. Friday night she went right to sleep in her crate with only a few minutes of trying to "sing" me to sleep! Saturday through Monday we enjoyed lots of play/bonding time. She loves to be outside and play chase mama around the yard. We took to her to the vet last night and of course she looks just fine, not a surprise! The trip to the vet was more for us than for her, we wanted to meet the local vet and go over the shots schedule and all of that fun stuff! The vet gave her a heartworm preventive, with the nice warm weather we had...better to be safe. All in all we are all doing just fine. She has brought so much joy to our home! Thank-you so much for a wonderful puppy experience. It was truly wonderful working with you. Thank you again, Anne Keator, Geoff and Addy too!

Hi Tom,    Thought you'd like to see how she's doing at 11 months. We're in Agility now and she's doing great, very good with people, a little aggressive at times with other dogs but manageable. She gets along great with our husky and is excellent in the house. I think she may end up a little bigger than we thought, she's at 65 lbs and on the lean side now. The one picture is at sunset and is a little golden form the sun, but you can see her stance and size. We're very happy with her, I'll keep you up to date when we start competing in the fall. Hope all is well with your family and dogs, Terri

Here is a photo of my German Shepherd Kodie. I had taken him out to my boyfriends Grandmothers farm, and this was his first day seeing Horses. He was" definitely curious, and the Horses were willing to let him get close. At first he would just bark at them, and then would get closer, and I got a picture of him sniffing the nose of one of there horses. What a Shot.   Thanks a Lot Erica Gudenschwager, from Baraboo,WI

Hi Tom,  Here's a couple pictures of Kobe. (Finally!) I will send more soon. We have so many pictures to go" through with our family, etc. I hope you enjoy these. I certainly hope it continues. He's such an awesome boy!   Take care, Anthony
