My new German Shepherd puppy - Page 2

Mirasmom,  Thank you so much I really do like Bana.  I have until I visit the litter to pick a name.  My husband likes Birke my kids and I are in favor of Bana, so I think the kids and I will win and her name will end up being Bana.  Ninja181, Thank you so much for your kind words.  With my excitement level I am sure that it will seem like an eternity before we receive our puppy.  I am counting down the days until we see her, on our first visit to the kennel,  39 days and counting.  I have never been asked that before, I would have to ask my husband that question, the name came with the marriage. Good luck Shelly S. with your soon to be new addition.  I want to thank everyone who has contacted me through IMs and on this post, wishing us luck on our new addition and sending us congratulations on selecting an excellent breeding.

Your new puppies birthday is the same is mine. It will be a great dog

I just checked out the link in the first post. I'm sure you will be delighted with a Betty x Nanno puppy. I have had Arolser Holz dogs for years, nearly bought Betty when I bought Gabi a year and a half ago, now wish I had done so. Actually, I may buy one of Betty's daughters in the end if Horst will let me have one. Nanno is very closely related to my Carol, same father, going to W litter Arolser Holz/Marc Herkulesblick through Wanni. My great old dog Pallo was a full brother to Wanni.

You may expect a really good looking dog, (probably "V" in conformation) a fine mover with excellent nerves, very good drives for the work but not so nuts a novice can't handle, VERY trainable. Longevity is another plus in this line. Grandpa Barras was 2-3x V in the BSZS, produced LOTS of fine V-rated working dogs! Betty produced a black and brown dog named Fine who was the prettiest working pup I have ever laid eyes on. I think she is still in Horst's kennel, but maybe someday... ;)

Good luck with you new puppy,
