Text Box:     5/24/2009  Hi Francine,  I just wanted to update you on Rico –AKA- Red. He is now 3 ½ years old, 85lbs and the Perfect Dog. He has a low to medium energy level, extremely smart and was very easy to train. He is the sixth German Shepherd that I have owned and the Best German Shepherd as well. Visitors always comment on how well behaved he is. He has a great personality and we are very pleased with him. He loves us and we love him very much.   Keep on Breeding the Best!   Melissa Alejandro 5/20/2009   We took Boz and Jade to the Bark at the Park - a Cincinnati Reds game where people were able to bring their dogs.  We had LOTS of people asking about them and their breeders.  So we've done our part and keep passing word around about you.  So I hope you get some good feedback. Anita 5/19/2009   Hi Francine,   Here are some Dexter pictures.  He is doing wonderfully!  He is becoming a very well trained dog, who now walks to the public park off lead, and is in his 3 or 4th obedience class with Paul.  The second picture is of Dexter with our baby lamb Nicky. Hope everything is still well with your family (both human and canine).  Lisa Samuels 4/26/2009  Hi Guys! Titan is doing great! He just finished puppy classes. He is so smart! He picked up on commands very easily. He opened our screen door by accident one day and now needless to say we have to keep it locked. He is devoted to our family too. He loves our 4 yr. old daughter and goes everywhere she goes. I actually just weighed him today and he is up to 60 pounds. He has been a great addition to our family. We love him so much! We would love to stop by sometime and let you see him. Jason and I are on vacation the week of May 11th, let us know if you have down time. I know that you are busy. Also do you have any idea when you will breed Hunter again ? Jason  and I have talked about getting another puppy once Titan gets out of his "puppy phase".  We would love to see his pups.  Take Care,  Jessica Cooper   4/6/2009 Hi Francine, Just couldn't help sharing this photo of Elsa with our grand daughter!  She is so gentle with kids our grand daughter just loves playing with her!  Hope you are all well.  Paul Bauscher 4/3/2009 Francine,  This is a picture of Kaiser at 15 weeks.  As you can see he is getting very big.  He is now 46 pounds.I also was on your web sight a few days ago and was sad to hear about Zeek.  I hope he’ll be found!! We are very happy with our beautiful boy.  And I’ve had several people enquire about where they could get a beautiful shepherd like ours.  Thanks again, Donna  4/2/2009 Francine & Joel: Hello and hope your family is doing well.  Here are a few latest of Boz and Jade.  Boz is up to 43.4 lbs and has mastered non-verbal commands of "sit", "paw", "down", "up" and "come".  He was fully potty trained by 3 months old and has yet to have an accident.  He's lost all of his puppy fuzz and his coat is looking beautiful!  If you would like to see a really nice picture of the two of them go to www.wlwt.com, scan down the page to the "U Local" area and if you look in the "Pets" tab you will see the first picture titled "Fire Dogs".  This picture was taken on 03/15/09 at Dan's firehouse on the front of one of the fire engines.  As of today around 8:00pm, 268 people had viewed their picture.  Tonight on Channel 5 news during their 5:50 pm time slot they show selected pictures from this site viewers download.  They featured this picture of Jade and Boz.  The two female co-anchors commented on how the larger dog was so pretty and the pup.  One wondered if the pup was her baby. Cannot wait to see other pics from owners of the other pups from Ginger's first litter.  Have a good weekend! Anita & Dan Ficke P.S.  Feel free to post any comments we say about our dogs on your site of "comments".   3/24/2009  Hi,  Just got your email and thought you would enjoy seeing a picture of "Leni" ... She is a GREAT dog very friendly and loves our other dogs... Thanks! Elizabeth 3/23/2009  Hi Francine hope everything is good with your family. Do not know how to send pictures over internet yet, so I will send you a picture of thumper in the mail. Thumper is 15 wks old now & he is growing so fast, we have had 2 accidents in the house since he came, other than that he is taking to house training faster than any dog we have ever owned. He already knows how to sit & shake a paw. Fetch is his favorite game; he has more toys than I think both my daughters had growing up. My wife spoils him. he is such a happy & laid back lil fella, I do not think he knows how big he is. I think he looks like his momma. Whenever he goes to vet everyone just raves about how strong &friendly he is.  Thanks for e-mail  John & Marci 2/18/2009 Here’s our little service dog in training opening a cabinet door (searching for treats)!   Marlys Staley, Executive Director             Circle Tail, Inc.   www.circletail.org  2/16/2009 Hi Guys !  Just wanted to say hi and give you an updated on Titan. I can't believe we have had him 5 weeks already.  He is up to 21 pounds now and has learned to sit. He is so intelligent! He was in a routine in about a week and has only had several accidents in his cage. He is so good with our 4 year old. He loves her so much. He has been a great addition to our family.   Thanks, Jason and Jessica Cooper    2/1/2009 Just wanted to send you some pictures of Titan. Sorry some of them didn't turn out that well. He is doing really well. He is doing great with potty training and will even go sit at the door when he needs to go out. He is up to 15 pounds now. Let me know if the pictures don't come through this was the first time that I have ever e-mailed pictures.  Take Care, Jessica Cooper 1/16/2009 Hi Francine, Hope you and your family had a nice holiday. I just wanted to let you know that we are enjoying every minute with our pup from 4kkennels. We named her "princess" because she is spoiled rotten! She and "kane" our other puppy play together all day.  They love to run around the yard and wrestle with each other for hours.  We're looking forward to the warmer weather so we can go swimming and for long walks. Thanks so much, Stephanie & Mike Miller  1/11/2009 Hi Francine, sorry it has taken me so long to reply.  Life is too busy but I want to say how much we love our Sophie!!!!!!!!!  She is everything to us.  She is very smart, is so athletic and great at tracking.  She really needs a job!  Hope you enjoy some of the pictures I have of her.  Stay in touch!   Happy new Year,  Cathy 12/19/2009 Our girls Ryleigh and Dakota are doing great!!.  They, and their brother Jim the cat, are a constant source of amusement.  They truly run the house.  Hope all is well with you and have a Merry Christmas!!   Annie and Joe  12/17/2009   Otto is doing great.  He is our big lug weighing in at just over 80lbs now.  He is so gentle with the kids and a big baby at time.  He has the BEST temperment we could ever ask for in a pet.  Thank ever so much.  I can't believe we have had him a year now!    The Creech Family.  9/17/2008   Hello Francine, Thank you for the update! Lobo is doing great - he's my "baby" - I just love him more than words can say. He is such a beautiful, intelligent being [I hate to call him a "dog"]. I have him trained so well and he is as obedient as can be....and such personality!!! I have attached a recent picture [Lobo in action]. You have provided me the love of my life! He knows I'm the "alpha" but he also knows I'm his surrogate "mom"....just perfect. I am eternally grateful!  Thanks, Laura Simkow  8/20/2008 Hello I just wanted to send you guys a couple of pictures of our puppy.  He is from Sable and Hunter's last group of puppies.  He has been and amazing dog and a quick learner.  He just turned 10 months old and is growing up to be a big boy.  He is five months old in the picture with the soccer ball and 7 months old in the picture where he is sitting.  Thank you for everything.  Scott Soots 6/16/2008  Hi Francine Just thought I would share an updated photo of Elsa with you. This is from a recent backpacking trip Elsa loves hiking!  She is doing very well.  We have completed fairly extensive obedience training and are planning to begin preparations to take the test for therapy certification. I'll let you know how she does. 4/10/2008   Francine and Family, we have Gunner whose parents are Hunter and Sable.  He was born on April 13th.  My mom got Sadie out of the same litter. Sadie was a good puppy.  She's very spirited and talks back.  Mom loves Sadie and thinks she has been a good addition to the family.  She's her spoiled baby!   I just want to let you know how thankful we are to have gotten them.  Gunner is a wonderful dog.  He was potty trained almost immediately.  He's very smart.  We've almost had him a year now and he's only chewed up 4 things.  Nothing major.  He sits, lays down, stays, gives both paws, speaks, and goes to jail.   He's very laid back.   He's a lover.  He loves kids.    We couldn't have asked for a better puppy.  I wish he would've stayed smaller for longer though.  He grew so fast. He was so cute when he was a little fluff ball with floppy ears.  I didn't think he was ever going to get his ears up.  He still thinks he's little; he'll let you hold him like a baby on his back, all 100lbs of him!  I think he looks like Brady.  My mom took Sadie to the vet and ran into Brady and his owner, how strange is that.  All the vets and all the dogs and they happened to be there at the same time.  When we are ready for another dog we will be visiting you again.  Thank you for the addition to our family!  4/1/2008   Hi Francine!   Here are a few pictures of Lexi; the first two she is 10 weeks old, and the last one is the most recent.  She is getting HUGE and the vet tells us she is the most beautiful German Shepherd he has seen!  Lexi is learning fast, and loves everyone she meets.  Thanks for such a great puppy!   Becky Bishop   3/24/2008   Hi - this is Grant after the big snowstorm the other weekend - He loves the snow !  He's still doing great and I'll take a picture of him on his birthday here in a couple weeks. Thanks,   Angela Block 3/22/2008   This is Dexter.  He is wonderful.  Thanks so much,   Lisa and Paul Samuels 3/14/2008   Hi Francine, Hi hope all is well with you and your family.  I have attached a few photos.  As you will see, Elsa loves to hike!  She is a wonderful dog! Take care and let me know if you need anything else.    Paul Bauscher "Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a persistent one." Albert Einstein 1/29/2008 Hey guys.  I tried to send some pics a while back of Ryleigh and Dakota but could not get the email to go through, so I thought I would try again.  The girls are doing great.  They are pretty much spoiled rotten and are absolutely inseparable.  Ryleigh is the boss and thinks she runs the house and Dakota still obsesses over our cat Jim and follows him wherever he goes! Hope all is well with your family.   Annie Brewer     1/17/2008 Francine,   I just wanted to let you know that Otto has really fit into our family quite well.   He is 99% housebroken and making it about 7 hours at night in the crate.   He has adjusted well to the kids and other pets.  He still loves to lick us to death.   At last weigh in he was 25lbs.   The vet thinks he will be a small horse.   Everyone who sees him thinks he is absolutely beautiful.   Thanks so much.      I have attached a picture but it didn't come out too well.   Sincerely,   Stefanie Creech     12/16/2007 We took these pictures yesterday of Grant (1 with Muddy too) He's doing good - He loves the snow - At 8 monthes he was 82 1/4 lbs. Didn't know if you wanted any of these pictures for your website.      9/21/2007  Francine,  Sorry to take so long.  I hope you can use this image.  I have her in obedience training and she's doing well.  She grows in spurts--more so than any pup I've ever had.  She's right at 50 lbs now.  Her legs are the exact length of Merlin's right now, but she's very slim and and sleek.  Beautiful coloring.  She got a little squirrelly when cutting teeth, but  other than that she's got a great temperament--very friendly with dogs, strangers and children.   Regards,  Sharon   9/11/2007 Grant is doing great - I weighed him just before sending this e-mail he is 53.6lbs now - he's Great with the kids - he loves playing with them and he doesn't care what they do to him - pull his tail, open his mouth to look at his teeth, lay on him, whatever they want. Of course he loves to chase balls - he will dig through his toy box and grab a ball and sit in front of you until you take him out to play. Everyone that see's him says that's not a puppy it's a full grown dog.  (ha-ha)   Here a few pictures I sent more than you need so that you can pick the one or one's you want. Thanks Angela Block 9/11/2007 Hi, we named our puppy Chumper ( well my husband did ) I think he makes a good Milton myself. He is very hyper, he doesn't travel well, he has gotten sick everytime we have taken him for a ride. He likes the water, Ceci ( our golden retriever ) has introduced him to the pond and they get in and play daily, I also have a small pool filled for them to play in with this heat. He is really growing, and doing well. Hope these are what you are looking for, he is not a co-operative subject as of yet. Thanks Sandra   9/10/2007    Lexi is doing just great and is a wonderful dog.   9/5/2007   Congratulations!   Will do!  Let me get a good shot of my "baby" for you.  I thank you so much.... Lobo, as we named him, is my third child - really.  You can add this to advertise what your pups might be capable of:  Lobo actually "talks" a couple of words - I know that sounds crazy, and people think I'm nuts until they hear him for themselves!  He calls me "marmar"  and he says "outside" [well, it sounds like outside, and when he makes that noise, that is indeed what he wants], he also says "Yes" [comes out something like ya]. Even beyond his ability to "speak", he has the greatest most loving personality. I just love him beyond words -  he lights up everyone's world he comes in contact with! Thank you so much!  Laura Simkow   9/5/2007 Sloane is photogenic. I wish I looked a quarter as good as she does in pictures.  Sloane goes to work with me everyday and tends to the horses.  She is a wonderful friend.   Thanks, Pam 9/3/2007   Francine, We are always delighted to share Elsa.  She is growing very fast!  Her obedience training is going very well and she has become a polite member of our family.  As you will see, she even let's our grand daughter hug her.  I'll send you a few photos but let me know if you need more.  We take pictures of her like she's our child!    Take care, Paul   07/15/2007   Just wanted to let you know that Grant is doing great. He is so good  with the boys. We have had several people ask where we got him and to tell us he looks great.  Hope you don't mind we gave them your name. Thanks again for a wonderful addition to our family, The Block Family   3/18/2007   Francine, Just had Ginger to the vet. He said he had not seen a German Shepherd as well built and even tempered as with her. Thanks for all the care and attention you have given us and to Ginger. Jack   2/25/2007 I wanted to let you know that Keiser is doing great. He is naturally protective and loves to be around people all the time. He has a powerful ball drive and loves to jog with me daily. Thanks for such great care and attention you gave to him, I know it has made him the dog he is today. C.Lewis    2/17/2007 I just wanted you to know that Nap is one of the best dogs. He was house broken almost immediately, he only had one accident and that was my fault. He is great around the farm and learns really quickly. I have had to train him not to herd the horses. He is very gentle with everyone. Thanks for such a great dog. will be looking to get a female as a companion for him but not planning to breed them. Will have Nap fixed. Thanks again, Victor H.   01/2007 Francine, just wanted to let you know that Outrider and Oakley are doing great. Thanks for your help with Whiley. It is nice to know that you are still there to help with any situation. Shannon A.    5/28/2005 Just wanted to let you know that Solomon is a beautiful dog and very devoted to my husband, Keith. We are taking him to puppy kindergarten and he is doing very good, he is a really smart puppy. Thanks Mr. and Mrs. Keith M.   2/13/05 Hi, Just wanted to send you a little note to let you know just how much we love our "puppy" (now at 65 lbs.) Kane is a great addition to our family. Soon after we got Kane we got him a companion, Able. Our trainer tells us that Kane has enough confidence for both dogs. Melissa K.    09/02/04 Hey Francine, So sorry it has taken me forever to email you some pictures. Outrider is doing great he is happy and healthy and a pleasure to be around. We have him in school and I think he enjoys the discipline. Each instructor at the school asks us where we got him, and I tell them about you guys, maybe you would like to send them an email about your pups next year. It’s called the Cincinnati Canine Companion center (513) 793-1428 is the phone number of Mary Jo she is an instructor. Neat lady has 2 shepherds too I think. Any way thanks for everything. Thanks again, I really feel that Outrider is a blessing in our lives. Shannon.    8/24/04 I am happy to inform you that Sasha is happy, Healthy, and growing Fast. She Loves to meet people and loves riding in the car. She responds well and was house broken instinctively. I am really glad she had you and the boys to get her some early training.  It was great meeting you guys. I really appreciate you care and attention to detail. This was the first time (out of 8 prior dogs) that I have gotten a dog from a breeder. Thanks for making it a pleasant experience. Jim F.   08/4/04   Hello - We just though we would give you an update. I purchased "Sparky" now Bear for my Wife on July 14 and brought my daughter Abby with me. He has adjusted just fine. We can't believe how playful he is. His ears are completely standing up now. Now, if his head would grow so they wouldn't look so funny!!!  Thanks James & Jennifer     Hello! Just wanted to let you know that Lola (AKA "little bit" or "sunshine") is doing wonderful! She has so much character/personality and she is always making us laugh. As for training, she is doing great. She has had to teach us a few things!!! Loren and Lola   7/24/04 Caesar is getting bigger everyday. He can already jump over the child’s gate we bought to keep him in the kitchen at night. He loves to swim and I don't think he has ever met a person that was not immediately his friend.  Thanks again!!! Ryan and Kathie  7/9/04 Our puppy "Caesar" is doing very well. From the first day we brought him home he has been potty trained, and has only had a few accidents. I think he has already gained some weight and height and is adjusting to our two cats very well. Thanks for raising a healthy puppy. Ryan
