Application
I
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.
I have and will refuse a
sale, if I do not think the person
would make a good life-long home for
the
pup.
Starting with a 2 page application, then I call and have been known to visit local
applicants
and, I google their address to see location and
neighborhood. I
offer a 2 year written hip
and temperament guarantee.
Please know,
most breeders dont breed for a medium drive
or therapy temperament, as we do.
While
searching for your next furkid, make sure you ask about drives, health
& titles.
If any of their dogs or pups do schutzund, that is
HIGH
drive.
Not
to say it is bad, as my dogs will do 2 of the 3 trainings in
SchH. Tracking & Obedience, just not the bite work.
They learn it, but dont have much "fight" drive to title in that discipline.
Another factor is larger size, so unless the helper is a larger
fellow, most aren't going to train with a bigger dog up on his back
legs, as which will be required come trial time, so this can become a
training
issue...where not being used to dancing on a sleeve on only rear legs
may cause the dog to let-go of the sleeve.
Our dogs are a blend of lines, a process that's taken a dozen years.
Bear had Swiss Working line in his pedigree, Phenyx came with Working
lines in her's, same with Zeus. It's a balancing act, and we
seek to
co-create dogs with medium aggression levels on purpose.
Think of a bell curve of all GSDs where X is aggression, from
a
1-wont chase sheep to 10-will kill
sheep. Y is
# of all GSDs.
Obviously the extremes are of no use to
anyone. The ones left of center are nervebags, the middle or center of
the bell is where most are, where we seek to be, centered.
The
ones right of center tend to be more useful to K9 departments,
and military. We cherish the traits of the working lines, and
you'll find our dogs willing and capable to defend, thus seek to
insure good homes with folks who will take the time to train them, for
everyone's happiness and safety.
After
Application
is
approved,
a non-refundable, but litter transferable
deposit of $200 for a puppy
is
required.
I will NOT
sell 2 puppies at the same time to the same
home/family.
Or sell a puppy into a family that already has a puppy under 1.5
yrs old.
(I believe every pup deserves an undivided attention to learn, then
they can help with the next pup)
$1200.00
(Limited
Registration)
Veterans, Firefighters and Police organizations receive a $100.oo

Disclaimer; Breeder reserves the right to retain pick male and female from each litter,
with puppy selections of buyers being in the order in which deposits are received
after Breeders picks" (Pick of Litter puppies may be available for an additional
fee at Breeders discretion). All puppies are sold with non-breeding AKC Limited
registration unless otherwise agreed in writing by Breeder.
When
contacting me, be persistant !
dont
be offended if I dont get right back to you, call/email again, again
& again.
As
I put my dogs first, paperwork & emails get squeezed into the
end of my days.

Max x Reba 2019
Sept 13, 2019 (Week 1 -
Mating) Rebas WEIGHS 64.0 lbs
Ovulation is considered day 0.
Ovulation is when the female releases an egg from the ovaries, ready for
fertilization following mating. The female will be receptive to the male a few
days before ovulation. Fertilization of the egg can occur 2-3 days after
ovulation, depending on how long the male's sperm takes to reach the egg.
20th SEPT 2019 (Week 2)
The fertilized eggs make their way to
the uterus, where they will eventually become embedded in the lining. You may
notice some minor behavioral changes at this early stage.
27th SEPT 2019 (Week 3)
By week 3, the embryos have implanted
in the wall of the uterus. Development begins and the embryos become dependent
on the mother for nutrition.
4th OCT 2019 (Week 4)
By day 28 it is possible for
your vet to confirm pregnancy. The fetuses can be seen through ultrasound and
also felt through palpation. The fetuses are now a couple of centimeters long
and the spinal cord, eyes and other facial features begin to take shape.
11th OCT 2019 (Week 5)
Reba WEIGHS 65.8 lbs
Amniotic fluid will build to protect
the pups from around day 32, so you will notice an increase in the
bitch's size and weight. You may also notice an increase in her appetite and
should start offering her more food as needed.
By Day 35 the embryos can now be considered fetuses as the organs begin
to develop and their shape becomes more obvious. It is at this point the sexes
of the fetuses are determined as their sex organs develop.
18th OCT 2019 (Week 6) Reba WEIGHS 21st- 70.2 lbs
The fetuses continue to develop. Their
claws will develop by around day 40. By the end of week six, the coat
will begin to develop with each pup's distinct markings.
You should consider setting up a comfortable whelping box in a quiet place, and
encourage the bitch to being sleeping there.
25th OCT 2019 (Week 7) Reba WEIGHS 73.2 lbs
The neonatal pups are now almost fully
formed and begin to rapidly develop in size. The mother's appetite will be very
large at this point. Preparations for the whelping box should now be completed.
1st NOV 2019(Week 8) Reba WEIGHS 77.0 lbs
Day 50 and the skeletons will have developed; meaning the number
of pups can now be determined by x-ray. The mother will likely be expressing
milk at this point ready for her pups. The pups are now crowded in the uterus
and birth could happen at any point! The female may start digging, a natural
nesting behavior, in the whelping box.
8th NOV. 2019(Week 9 - Whelping)
Reba WEIGHS 80.0 lbs
The female is ready for whelping and
will likely be quiet in preparation of labor. Rectal temperature can be taken a
few times daily to help indicate when labor will begin. A decrease in
temperature indicates that whelping will begin
soon. Reba came into labor 5 days early.... 7 males / 0 females DOB 11/10/19
15th NOV
Day 63 marks the average length of gestation in the dog and is
likely to be the day the pups are born.
