The 3 Amigos!





Mary Ann


Short clip of Mr. Green Bottle Feeding


 Mr. Green is having a little trouble latching on but that doesn't prevent him for devouring his home made formula!  It's a secret recipe but I'll tell you it contains whole fat plain yoghurt, canned goat's milk and human baby vitamins. Among some very exotic other things!  Literally 10X better than the powdered variety!  Nothing is too good for my babies!

Puppies Practicing Walking - I Love This Time in Their Lives!




 This is my absolute favourite time for the puppies!  They are 3 weeks old and very unsteady on their feet!  Plus!  They don't have any teeth yet!  A definite bonus when introducing them to children!  These are Gaia's puppies and if you'll notice, there's a few stuffed toys in the whelping box for stimulation.  They are at the stage when they now know there is something outside of themselves.  The acknowledge their littermates and actually starting trying to play with each other.  So fun to watch!  They also recognize me for the first time!

If I could please ask a favour of you...

 My good friend Julie, manages my Facebook page for me because 

1. I don't have time to deal with it and 

2.  I have no desire to learn how to use it!  

So on August 24 when I posted that I had been voted one of the top GSD breeders in Alberta on my blog, (an absolute honour), she very kindly put the announcement up on the Guardian Angel Shepherds Facebook page.  I was curious to see if there had been any comments and sure enough, there were!  The really cool thing was, a few of  them were from people who had adopted puppies from here in years past !  It really touched my heart that they took the time to do that.  It occurred to me that it would be a fantastic reference if other owners of my dogs were to add their photos and their comments.  I would really appreciate the marketing help.  I'm always telling everyone that I'm great with dogs, not so good at business.  I need all the help I can get! So if I could ask a favour of anyone who had the time and inclination to add a comment and/or photo, it would be most appreciated!

And to those who have commented already, thank you for sharing your experience here and I'm so glad that all your dogs are what you hoped for!  It makes all my work worthwhile.








Thanking you in advance.

They are here! Early!

 Guardian Angel Shepherds is proud to announce that Gaia has had her puppies!  On August 8th, she delivered us 7 beautiful, healthy puppies!  Mom and pups are all doing great!  Gaia, as a first time Mom, is doing fantastic!  We have 4 boys and 3 girls.  One of the girls is a sable like her father Hawk.  The others are all looking very black but I'm pretty sure there will be some that will develop tan as they age.  I think being 6 days early, the tan hadn't appeared yet.  Photos to follow later.
