updates from our Gerans puppy
buyers
Hi
Gerald,
We will do some more pictures on Tuesday. He is such a great
puppy. He is a nice mover. I think he did very well
for his
first day of being worked with us. Fred is supposed
to come
up on Wednesday to pick him up. He is very anxious to see him
and
get him started for his show career. We will keep you posted
on
everything he does and will send pics as often as you would
like.
Hope you had a good Christmas. Take care,
Charlene

Hi
Gerald!
I can’t tell you how thrilled I am with this puppy. Sherri is my go to
person for showing but my area lies in the temperament and
socialization . All of my dogs excel at adaptability and good social
skills and that is what I am known for. Sierra is a pup that
has
exceeded my expectations in a thousand ways. As you know my dogs live
as a pack and Sierra was accepted in from the first day she met them.
She has a wonderful calm demeanour and fit in as if she was born here.
We then threw her into visiting my work ( a large college) and she
walked about the halls and offices with confidence. Shiny floors, steep
steps, hustle and bustle never fazed her. You would be proud. Tomorrow
she starts her puppy classes and is introduced to obstacles and more
situations. She will fly through this I am sure, and then off to her
first big specialty dog show as a spectator. What a wonderful life! I
still need a boy, really loved your pictures of the boys and know I
could do well with them up here and wished I had taken one knowing what
I know now. There is always another day....

Good
day to all G.S.D. Fanciers,
One month ago myself and Dawn Trusty made a trip to Vancouver to meet
our new puppy, "Sierra" as she is fondly known.We have so much good to
say about this little girl, whom we believe would give her littermate
sister "Layla" a run for the money on type and correct structure.The
TEMPERAMENT on this little girl speaks volumes for the breedings
comming from Gerald Roach's breeding program.I have personally had this
breed in my life for over twenty five years and have bought very few
dogs/bitches from other kennels, very rarely buying from a picture.I
have been fairly fortunate to have gotten some very good ones from
other kennels and also had some very sad situations with as many
others.There were those that didn't make the cut in my life and not for
a lack of exposure and real life situations to explore and play in
comfortably.This girl Sierra has never taken a wrong step since she
arrived and her personality is impeccable, she has travelled many
hundreds of miles since she arrived in Canada in her short time of one
month, attended as a spectator an 865 entry show. played with every
imaginable puppy and their owners, attends when not on the road,puppy
exposure obedience agility class each Sunday and self stacks like a hot
damn! ! Dawn and I will be having some show ring class's this week and
she's ready for that too.Sierra is just seventeen weeks old and she is
winning many hearts as she goes along with her happy inteligent
attitude.Well I guess I have really carried on about Sierra,but isn't
this what our Breed should be all about? Newcommers into this breed
will do well to try very hard to have these qualities in their kennels
and keep in good standings with the breeders of record for as much
learning as possible. Our hats off to Gerald for this puppy,
she
will do his
program
justice and we are as I said so pleased to call her
ours!

Yesterday
my 7 month old pups went in for a general check-up. The
vet
techs and the vet all said how pleasant it was to see German
Shepherds come in who have super temperaments and aren't
afraid. I was very proud of the kids--they loved
their trip
out. The temperament I credit to breeder Gerald
Roach--kudos to his breeding program!

Hey...
Just wanted to let you know that Miss Mabel is still doing
great.
She slept the whole night in her crate except to go out and potty at
about 3am no problems. She has adjusted really
well. We
were in the middle of laying down a new floor in the living
room/kitchen (it was supposed to be done weeks ago, long story) and she
has "helped" the whole time. Very confident even amidst the
banging of hammers, the circular saw, and the dust. She is
having
a blast torturing the cats and has had very few accidents in the
house. We couldn't be happier with her. I have her
enrolled
in puppy classes starting next Saturday to get her even more socialized.

OK........
I am not laughing anymore, just smiling! Because, I have
spend
the last four days with the sweetest and best tempered puppy I have
ever known. I have prided myself with some pretty great pups of my own,
but none any nicer than this little guy, when it comes to
personallity.He has empressed us all, with his naturally sense and
ability to accept all that goes on around him. He picks up on things so
so quickly and never seems frasseled or nervous. He got the word ball
in a minute and picks it up, the ball, the second he is asked
to.
He is so comfortable around the kids, Luke, Mia's son and my little
Anna Maria, both six.
He only had one little accident, since he got here and that of all
things...... he choose to have in the bathroom. He comes to his new
name Jackson already and seems just happy with that.
When I left Mia's house tonight, he laid down beside her on the porch,
ever so comfortable, with his two front feet just dangeling over the
edge of the top step, looking as if he had always been there and I
pictured for a second in my mind how he was going to look one day fully
mature and quite magestic I am sure, with his tail wagging and I was
sure everything is right where it should be.Mia is very happy and
therefore my wish came true! Thank you, for being
so kind
and for being there right when I needed you too. Please say thank you
to your lovely daughter Alexa for being such a good sport. Greeting
from Canada, wishing you the best for the New Year.
Litha and family.
