With respect to this special bloodline Lynda says,

"I have been a breeder for 14 years, and my associates nearly 30 years. We are a small group dedicated to German Shepherds as they were twenty years ago -- magnificent old style dogs, mentally and physically sound, extreme neither in angulation, build or temperament. Our dogs are based on CH. Caralon's Hein vd Lo Ckenheim CD ROM OFA, a beautiful dog known for producing excellence in health and temperament. We have much better than average success rate with avoiding genetic diseases, hip dysplasia, spondylosis, heart trouble, enzyme deficiencies, allergies, thyroid imbalance and other diseases. We also do in-depth temperament testing and look specifically at such traits as dominance, trainability, intelligence, noise-shyness, sociability, confidence, aggression (what kind and how much selecting for natural protection and territoriality, but frowning on prey drive as it is more difficult to control). Our dogs can be excellent workers and still possess natural good manners and common sense. We use our dogs with REACH, Restoring and Extending Ability with Canine Helpers, so they have tobe sound."

If you are an experienced trainer/handler of German Shepherds with 10-20 or more years experience and a proven track record of training and showing German Shepherd dogs and would be interested in working with Jade to earn obedience or other working titles, please contact:: Terry Lynch, Jade's owner.

Thank you.

Jade At Ten Months

Jade says, "Chill Out!"

At ten months old Jade is a very vigerous, happy dog. He is in excellent health and has very high spirits, being active and well trained. He learns fast and enjoys pleasing his master. His coat is very bright and shiney which is why I like to call him "most illustrious." He is also blacker than the night! In fact Jade is so black that he disappears at night and makes a hole in the darkness!!! If you are thinking about breeding your bitch down the road please view Jade's pedigree.

Jade's Radiographs, No abnormalities!

Attention breeders! Jade's preliminary radiographs for early signs of hip dysplasia have been made and reviewed for remodeling and sclerosis of the femoral head and neck, acetabular congruity and coxofemoral joint luxation. No abnormalities were identified. In other words Jade's hips are GOOD! Another view will be made when Jade is two years of age and film will be sent to Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) for screening. Update: At two years of age Jade's radiographs were sent to OFA and registered:

OFA GS-55264 Good 24M-T (Hips).

Jade Progresses In Early Obedience Training

Jade's basic obedience training is progressing well. He is a very smart dog and responds well to both voice and hand commands. He enjoys playing ball and loves to retrieve balls or other play toys. Jade has been informally trained using the methods illustrated in Leerburg's Baisc Dog Obedience training video tape #302. This is an excellent video and demonstratesd the usage of praise and proper correction technique to reinforce a dog's learning. Also The Ultimate Guide to Dog Training : How to Bring Out the Best in Your Pet by Mordecai Siegal, Matthew Margolis is being used for more formal obedience training.
