I thought I'd post my story ....................................................
Long story short - I received a puppy from GinaGardens Kennel that was not exactly what I was looking for and sent him back. Lena said she doesn't produce many litters and it would be a long time before she would have a puppy that she thought I'd like.
Well after waiting for what felt like forever, I just knew I'd never see resolution...... and then.......
Lena sent an email a few weeks ago about a litter and thougth there was a puppy that would work for me.......once the pups were closer to 8 weeks, she confirmed that, yes, I needed to see this pup, so jumped on a plane to come and check him out.
When I arrived, Lena was sitting on her porch relaxing and playing with some older puppies (8 months maybe), they were all breathtaking. They of course, all had to come and greet me...... All of these pups were friendly, happy, healthy and beautiful.
After talking for a while, she brought out a litter of 8 week puppies...knowing I wasn't interested in coated pups...she had already sold a male and female. When my boy trotted out in full command I was interested immediately....... He came out as a bull doesn when entering the ring at a bullfight..... full confidence and his natural gait was amazing! He was after everything that moved and when he gripped something he wouldn't let go.
GinaGardens Bravo easily adapted to traveling by car, sleeping in a hotel, being prodded and poked by a vet for his health certificate, waiting for hours for two different flights, and more car travel.
Every time I opened that crate Bravo was ready to pop out and see what he could get into..... chasing everything that moved and enjoying the attention from the many other travelers along the way. When we finally arrived at home, he walked in like he owned the place, smelled around for a bit and proceeded to attack my pant legs and shoelaces.....

Undra - 3 X SchH3, I was impressed with her obedience....focus, snappy responses, willingness to please and confidence too. Undra has a regal aire and she almost glides as she covers ground at a trot. I enjoyed watching her play with her pups. Yappo is 5x VA and SchH3....
Photo was taken at the first stop sign after picking him up and just before he jumped and stole the cell phone out of my hand....what a pistol. Look for him at NASS!
Thank you Lena and Richard

Here's a few photos of the pup........sorry for the blurry quality, he just won't keep still......
The best stack so far, even if the wrong leg is stretched back.

You must be up to ten, then. Why you need to come to CT (and didn't stop by for a cup of coffee!
) for a GSD when you have nine pups, is very interesting. I guess you sold them already!

It's good to read detail experiences from happy puppy/dog buyers, for a change. They are out there of course, but it's imbalanced with the bad outcomes, because we are quicker to bitch about them, understandably. Good luck with your new boy!
