Hi Kathy and
Hans,
We love, love, love
Ilanka! She is perfect for us.
Thank you for the years of
training and care you provided for her.
We are having a blast playing and hiking all over - she
has tons of energy.
Attached are a few pics: the
first few days were probably a shock for her in a new
environment,
but she is really settling
in and comfortable all over the house.
We visited my vet on
Friday and the whole staff was crazy for Ilanka.
Hope all is well with
you - watch that Halloween candy!
Thanks again for all
you did to make Ilanka such a great dog and now the true
joy in our life.
I really hope that you are
not missing her too badly... she's in good hands and
happy.

Kathy and Hans,
Thank you again for a very enjoyable afternoon Saturday.
My daughter, quite surprisingly had a great time with the big
dogs.
I was truly impressed and my mother who is the true dog person
I know was as well. Equally impressive was how mom's
new puppy
handled himself over the last day while my mother was here
visiting with us. If I ever go back to having a dog too, I
would certainly be
honored to have one as wonderful as this puppy was. What
an outstanding temperament and so smart!
I have attached a couple of pictures with my daughter and
Lion. We were impressed considering this was her
first time handling
a big dog like that!
Thank you again,

Hi Kathy and
Hans;
When Annette and
I got Alf (Eli) we never imagined he would grow into the part of our
lives that brings us so much joy...now 4 ½ years old,
he has developed
quite the personality and the most amazing traits that can be
comical. He has also developed the
reputation in our
neighborhood as the security guard...he loves to let neighbors know
that there is someone in the area
that shouldn’t be
there...but after all he’s only doing his
job.
Thank you so much
for the wonderful expertise you bring to the world of
GSD’s!
I tell everyone I
see about you two...thanks again,
Tom, Annette and
Eli

Kathy,
How is everyone doing your
way? Thought you might enjoy these pictures of Bella.
She loves the snow and ice! I can't wait for you to see her again
she is awesome in every way. I can't believe she will be a
year on March 21st, you should see how she maneuvers under and
around things. Bob and I and probably all our family and friends
would be lost without her. Bob said he would never let a
dog sleep with us again, but as you can see this changed
quickly! 99% of the time she sleeps below my feet. She has
brought so much joy in our lives. My other dogs were great,
but she as so much loyalty and love towards me it is amazing.
She is protective yet loving with all and knows I'm "mom". I can
not explain how it feels to have a dog with such a different caliber
about itself than others. I think I actually was scared
the first several (teenage months) or intimidated because she was
soo smart. Now that it has settled in that I own a real
German German Shepherd with police dog abilities let alone
beautiful, I can now just sit back, enjoy, and smile!
Take Care and God Bless,

So just about a year ago we were driving through a blizzard from
Pennsylvania to Ohio to pick up our new puppy...
well he was worth it!! At a year old now, Bear is a
wonderful dog. He is the most beautiful I have ever seen,
continues to get comments where ever I go, and is a strong,
happy, and loyal part of our family! He is weighing in at
96 lbs and I don't think he has stopped growing yet!!! He
is intelligent, affectionate, and loves people. He
approaches
everything with a boundless curiosity and energy. He has
learned to walk on a leash, knows basic commands like sit,
come, and lie down. He still wants to play with every dog
he meets, his energy and exuberance sometimes a little
intimidating to people who do not know him. He loves to romp with
his pals at the dog park, and especially loves for
us to "chuck" his favorite tennis ball which he will retrieve
forever!
Thanks so much for the opportunity to own and love such a great
dog. You can let his father Skip and his mom Bailey
that they have one awesome offspring!!!

Hi Kathy,
Just thought i would write to keep you posted on
DENVER. He is doing great, he is 5 months
old now and he weighs
61 lbs. He is so handsome, people are always stopping me asking
me where we got him, as a matter of fact I gave
your address and phone number to some guy the other day that
stopped me while we were walking. He is such a
good dog, he loves to play in the snow, he loves going on walks,
and loves the car! He is really calm, which I am happy
about. Thank you for being such a help in picking him out. We had
told you we wanted a calmer dog, because the
other gsd we have is very mellow. They get along fantastic
together!!!
I am sending you some pictures of denver, so you can see how
handsome he is and how he has grown.
Keep in touch.
Sincerely
Carole

Good Morning Kathy:
I just wanted to take a moment and let
you know that "Layla" is doing wonderful and how grateful I am that
you
allowed us to give her a home. She is a wonderful dog and
we enjoy her totally. She enjoys running and playing
with her 2 canine sibling and chasing the cats whenever we might
not be watching.She is a little leary of the llamas
and horses though. My family has had German Shepherds for years
but I have never had one that adopted me as
their master. Layla does not allow me to move from room to
room in the house without her and she always turns
herself inside out when I come in the house!
Many thanks for this opportunity,
Kally
