Camping at Curlew WA

These pictures were taken while we were camping this last weekend. Gunnar was on his very best behavior and we received allot of attention because of him. It is fun to watch my 6 year old explain to people what a "Real Shiloh Shepherd" is.

He likes to find a spot and be able to keep his eye on the kids. He seems to get a little concerned when they are not right where he wants them to be.

This is a 5 month old healer that he made friends with, they played together just as much as we would let them.

I wish this picture was a little more clear, I just love it!

He likes the water a little, not too much he goes in allot better when the kids are in.

Weekend at the Ocean

2010-08-23T13:32:00.000-07:00

We had a great weekend playing with Gunnar at the Ocean, he really seems to adapt well to any situation that we put him in. We get tons of compliments on how calm he is for a puppy. One funny thing that happened was, we came across a Chihuahua puppy that is the same age as Gunnar and my kids could not get over how they could be so much different in size and be the same age. The Chihuahua puppy was about the size of one of Gunnars paws.

Gunnars first golfing experience

This a picture from our favorite Golf Course at Sun Lakes Resort, I have pictures of our kids from very little on up to now in this exact location, it was great to get a picture of Gunnar with them .

Introducing Gunnar

2010-08-09T15:29:00.000-07:00

Gunnar is an ISSR registered Shiloh Shepherd. He came to join our family on 8/1/2010. I have spent many years researching this breed and decided long ago that this was going to be the next companion for our family.

Gunnar was born 5/10/2010, his Sir is Zeke from Solace Shilohs and his Dam is Elektra from Stauss Haus Shepherds.We have had an amazing week with our new little man. He is quite the character and seems to be very proud and full of himself. He is the perfect match for our family. He is a little sassy with just enough softness to make correcting him a breeze. He does not want to disappoint us.

During his first week he has been very busy, he has been to an all day swim meet surrounded by children of all ages, he has been to gymnastics and on a 4 day camping trip. He is being instructed on how an "Osborne" behaves by my six year old daughter. She literally says "No Gunnar you cant do that, that is not how an Osborne behaves". I love it! He does not like to be told no and he is very vocal about it. He is working on some basic commands like sit, stay, leave it, and down. He is already potty trained. Lola our Anatolian Shepherd mix and him have become fast friends. He loves to snuggle and will lean into us for a big squeeze.
