Ramona,
    Let me take this opportunity to tell you just how happy we are with Lenore, the puppy we purchased from you. She is our fourth German Shepherd, but like you say, there are too many German Shepherds out there that are being sold with problems. We even had to have a hip replacement on our older dog. That is why we chose your kennels when searching for just the right puppy. Lenore is completely healthy with absolutely no health problems whatsoever. When we took her to the vet for her checkup, they all thought that she was six months old when, in fact, she is only four months!  Her arms are as big as mine! She has such excellent nerves!  We were worried that the flights that she had to take to get here would have shaken her up, but not at all! She came off the plane like she was already at home! We recently joined a Schutzhund club and everyone there was very impressed with Lenore. I mean they thoroughly inspected the dog!  She was complimented on absolutely everything, her tight feet, her balanced temperament (half prey drive/half defense drive), her scissor bite, her strong standing ears, her conformation, her bone: EVERYTHING!  And she calmly and patiently accepted this handling and petting by people who were complete strangers to her. Nothing upsets her! One trainer had driven 1,000 miles from Atlanta to work the dogs at this Schutzhund club for a while, and the first thing he told my husband is, "I'll give you a thousand dollars for that puppy right now!" Well, of course we refused, but that was even before he saw her pedigree. He told us that he has been training dogs for a very long time and our first Schutzhund prospect was better than the dog he has now!  I feel that we really lucked out. We have a friend who is interested in a future litter from your kennels, so I gave him your number. I told him that everything you say about
your dogs is true: no exaggerations. They are everything that you describe them to be and more. Lenore has found a happy home. Our other dogs love her and she plays with them for hours!  She is affectionate and playful, curious and attentive. She will definitely be a tracker, her nose is to the ground wherever she goes. She is the perfect family pet and is also the perfect Schutzhund candidate. We couldn't be happier.
Sincerely,
Larissa

Ramona!!
     I wish there was some way I could send you video from my digital camera of Lenore!  We taped our latest Schutzhund class!  The helper was running away, Ben let go of her and she ran and jumped completely off the ground with all four feet and latched onto the bite tube and held on like no tomorrow and when the helper let her have it, she shook it like crazy and ran back to Ben with it!!  Incredible, she is the star pupil there! (And also the youngest!) Just a natural.
