Hey, Guys, get your photos in so we can upload them!
Christie Hale and Eros Von
Windtanz are quite a team. Eros
was originally trained for BH by
Joe Tackett. Eros has a royal
pedigree. He is the son of VA
Quenn Vom Monchberg SchH 3.
Eros celebrates his royalty by
being the best friend of the Hale
Family's children. When he is not
busy with the kids he travels with
Christie as her protector and
companion. Eros has an
impeccable temperament and
demonstrates what being a
Schutzhund Dog is all about. He is
safe, sociable and willing to please
but ready to protect his family. He
will soon have a new member of
the family to protect. A baby is on
the way!



Terry Hackathorn and Prada Hagendoorn von Kellerhaus demonstrated a great
performance. Prada was originally trained by Joe Tackett for her BH. Terry has
become quite a handler under Joe's guidance. This was Terry's first time ever in a
trial. She and Prada were a beautiful team. Prada and Terry are on her way to SchH 1.
Prada is the young daughter of Anneshia Keller's V Xanto von Stevenhaus SchH 3 Kkl
1 "a" normal. In fact Prada goes down in history as being Xanto's first titled progeny!

Medal from Judge Doug Alexander at

Patty Henderson and Azo Vom Kimberin-Dey
Haus are on the left with Terry and Prada on the
right. Azo, better known as Ace is the second
"Nitro" (V Xanto von Stevenhaus SchH 3 Kkl 1
"a" normal) progeny to be titled. Anneshia
Keller is Nitro's owner. The breeder of Ace is
Kathleen Kimberlin. Both are club members!
Ace and Patty are on their way to Schutzhund 1
triumph. Ace, just like his famous Dad, is loving
and sociable but full of fire for Schutzhund
sport. Ace lives in the home of Dr. Jud and Patty
Henderson with Otto, the Gentle Giant
Rottweiler, Ray, an upcoming German Shepherd
Working Line star, and two miniature Italian
Greyhounds. Yep, they all get along! Patty is the
Treasurer of the Good Shepherd Schutzhund
Club and does a superior job. She is deeply
appreciated by our club members.



Al Longoria with Jasmine. Al and Jasmine were victorious BH title holders on January
12, 2008. Al's wonderful Jasmine guards Al's home when he works. She is terrific at
her job and is also loving and sociable with people and kids. The BH title requires
just this. Jasmine as well as the other dogs who succeeded demonstrated they were
safe traffic and companion dogs. Their temperament was tested in large loud groups
and with bicyclists and joggers. Each dog was individually tested with a neutral dog.
If the contestant displayed inappropriate aggression or timidity with people or other
dogs they would be immediately dismissed. Before the dog was allowed to enter the
traffic temperament phase they were required to pass advanced on and off
obedience. Al has accomplished a lot with lovely Jasmine. Al & Jasmine have many
years and trials ahead. Way to go, Al!

The BH Final Contestants who passed their on and
off leash obedience are awaiting the intensive traffic
companion dog & temperament testing. All are Good
Shepherd Schutzhund Club Members! Hurray!
