Title

Woodside German Shepherds - British Columbia, Canada & Arizona, U.S.A. German Shepherd Breeder

Description

I have always loved dogs, even when I was a child. Every dog in the neighborhood would follow me home, but my real interest, then, was horses. I showed Quarters and Paints extensively when I was young.

Well, when I was about 20, I dated a fellow who owned a German Shepherd. This was the most intelligent dog I have ever seen, even to this day. But, I was given a Doberman and started showing Dobies without much success. At that time, my best friend in Dobermans was Mary White. She's gone on to become the top Dobie breeder in Canada and one of the top breeders in the U.S. as well. She even won the National - equivalent to our “Grand Victor”. Anyway, I was active in the Doberman Club and held the office of Vice President. But ... one time when our club held an all-breed fun match, I saw a sable German Shepherd male who turned out to be sired by Kaiser of Waldesruh. That was it - I was hooked! I bought a few local dogs but then we've all done that. No one would help me and the advice I was given was usually wrong. I heard about Al and Rosemary Pellatt, who had moved to B.C., and was told that they bought quite a number of dogs from the top handler, Jimmy Moses. So, I went to see the Pellatts to breed one of my females and, while I was there, saw an outstanding sable female. I bought her and she became the foundation for Woodside Kennels. Her name was Marwade's Guinivere Isis.

Historically speaking, my favorite bitch was US GV Anton's Jenne - I owned two of her puppies but, unfortunately, they didn't work out. My favorite male was US GV Sabra of Gan Edan. I never bred to Sabra but I admired his type. As far as my own breeding program is concerned, the predominant males are US GV Woodside Nestle Quik Merwestyn, Sel. Ch. Stuttgart's Sundance Kid, Sel. Ch. Covy's Mazarati of Tucker Hill and Sel. Ch. Covy-Tucker Hill's Don Quixote.
