I won't tell my clients to do what I wouldn't do. I crate train and it's awesome! Dogs love it!

Ziva now 7 months old-- November 2009
Ziva catching her breath after a time of play.
It has been my personal dream to own my own German Shepherd falling in love with the breed when I was a young girl and my Dad owned one named Chief. Since becoming a trainer I wanted a puppy to train as my show dog in my classes. Being particular as I am I wanted to rescue a female puppy, black and tan, low prey drive and soft temperment. After prayer, patience and waiting Ziva appeared one day when HOPE was contacted because she was abandoned at a vet's office. You can get awesome pure bred dogs through rescues! Stay tuned to watch Ziva grow and learn. She is now 4 months old, July 2009. Extra special thank you to Randi for standing up for this defenseless puppy saving her from a kill shelter. Thanks for not looking the other way!
