I will not be getting my Huerta Hof pup until the spring, so I can not post, but will be keeping an eye on this Happy that you picked such and amazing breeder, you will not be disappointed!
Thanks all for those kind words! Whiskey is very special to me. He got me through some very hard times earlier this year. When I feel absolutely hopeless and lost, he is my rock, my support, and my dearest shadow. I truly love this dog with all of my heart. It brings tears to my eyes when I think about how much I absolutely ADORE this dog.
Not to turn this into politics, but I hear a lot of people talk about SL having weak nerves/temperaments. Come on over and meet my boy! He's unshakable, solid and a warrior. He and I have a partnership that I value more than anything. Nothing compares to the exhilaration and joy that I experience when I step out in the schutzhund field with him. We are a team and it almost feels like we are one when we work together towards a common goal.
He will do anything for me, and I would gladly return the favor a 1000x over. He might not be able to do everything as well as some other dogs. He won't be a top sport dog or a VA dog, but I guarantee that my boy will give it everything he has and will do ANYTHING I ask of him. He has heart, soul and depth. Don't tell the others, but if I could only have one for the rest of my life, it would be my boy Whiskey.
Truly a very special dog. I can't thank Robin and Carlos enough for bringing this gem of a dog into my life
Just a cute story I wanted to add. I was sick a couple months back. Whiskey stayed in bed with me the entire time. Each time I had a coughing fit, he would get the same expression. Here are some of the pictures I was able to take during that time. Look at his expressions. That to me tells so much about the soul and heart of a dog.
Wow I'm so glad you wrote this! I can totally relate to you about Karma! You are much better with words then I am! Thank you! I don't know where I would be without karma, she makes me want to own more German shepherds. You are exactly right about the sound temperaments in the Huerta Hof dogs. A lot of people underestimated my dog... They said she wouldn't be able to do schutzhund, we she proved them wrong I am a VERY proud owner of my Huerta Hof dog!
Aish......YOU are a *special owner*, and I KNOW that you are aware how much you mean to us!
Your next puppy is being "planned"....I'll let you know when he/she arrives.
BTW...last pic with young, pretty girl...that is Ivan...Whiskey's father....what a HAM!

Lies...you have 2 pics of our beloved Chulla von Huerta Hof..(Cuervo's litter-sister)....it is AMAZING how much Vercase (Cuervo's daughter) looks like her!
I would LOVE to have those pics.....they are posted above...one stand, one movement from 2009....before she left to Germany.
Robin I have a flyball tournament in Ohio this weekend and when I get back I'll dig up the pics and re-edit them (my post processing has come a long way and I think I can do a little better).
