CLIENT REFERENCE

Email received 11/03/08; My experience with Sapphire Shepherds and Ramona Helmer was a truly amazing "Once in a lifetime find."  For a good dog you need to have good blood and genetics. Ramona's dogs have these superior qualities.  I was very much impressed by the calm disposition of her dogs, at the same time, displaying tremendous drive. I flew to Montana and spent two days with Ramona and carefully chose my own dog, Enzo. Ramona is honest and caring, truly reliable. Knowing a head of time Ramona had already narrowed it down to two dogs she thought I would pick. Enzo was one of the two.  Being in law enforcement has given me insight about people. Within that brief period of being in Montana, I found Ramona to be trustworthy and offering a comfortable environment during my stay.  I am looking forward to our continued friendship and support.  If you are looking for a true working dog, Sapphire Shepherds is the answer.
