Stella will be 1 year old on June 8, 2010 - Stella is vWD Clear by parentage. She is a very sweet loving girl who was allowed to be a bit of a dober delinquent, she was very loved but also very spoiled. That cute doberman face had her humans very well trained, wrapped around her little paw. With the approach of adolecense her family made the very dificult decision to return her before her cheeky teenage attitude led her into a life of a dober-crime *LOL*. Stella is in Obedience Boot camp with me and is coming along, very well, she has been thriving on solid application of rules, boundaries, and consistent commands and consequences for improper behavior as well as positive reinforcement for her good behavior. She was fearful of strange dogs but that is totally over being around my pack. I am teaching her coping skills so that her confidence is returning, Stella is a submissive dog or a 'follower" and these dogs need a strong leader, someone who will apply consistent rules and boundaries and not let her cute face entice you into spoiling her by allowing to have her way and make bad decisions. Her temerament is very solid, very sweet and loving, she has a lot of puppy energy still with the "zoomies" being one of her favorite things to do after chasing and chewing her tennis ball. She is also a coffee theif!!!
I would prefer a fenced yard as she has been allowed to "ignore" the come command. We are working on that as well the other core obedience commands and she is doing well, but a fenced yard would be safest. Stella has not been around kids or cats.
Stella is spayed, up to date on vaccinations and worming, crate trained, and does know "sit and Down' really well and walks well on the leash
Price: $1,000 and she will be sold on the same contract posted on this site, with the same 6 year health guarantee that all my pups enjoy. Stella's new family will be required to attend 2 successive obedience courses within 6 months to ensure her continued good behavior and manners.

Vlad is neutered and up to date on all his vaccinations. He is vWd Clear by parentage and he is Negaive by parentage for the WSU DCM DNA test
Vlad's parents have had a huge change in their life and no longer have time for him so he has returned to me to find him a Fur-ever home. He spent too many hours being crated, and in trying to escape from his crate he has damaged both ears, one more than the other. His left ear had a hematoma and though it is now gone the damage to the cartilege has caused that ear to be contracted. Since Vlad was panickedd to the point of hurting himself in a crate, I am keeping him in one of those small 5' round plastic pools with a 48" expen and he is quite calm, comfortable and respectful of this method of containment. I would not suggest the use of a crate again for quite some time.
Vlad is getting a tune up on his obedience. He did attend PetSmart puppy classes and achieved an AKC Star Puppy so he has the basics, he just needs a short remidial course. He lived with 3 young children so is good with kids, but Vlad is a big boy so I don't think very small children would be suitable. He is very affectionate and like most teenage boys a bit of a goof ball *LOL* Vlad is very good with kids, he lived with 2 boys over the age of 10.
Don't let his playful nature fool you he is 100% doberman and is a great watch dog, alerting when anyone comes up the drive way, but sits on command and lets me "take care" of whomever is coming to the house. He rides great in the car. He is average in exercise needs walks and play time in the back yard and he will be a happy companion. He would love another dog to play with, but it should be a substantial playmate as Vlad is a big boy, around 90 lbs
Price: $1,000 and he will be sold on the same contract posted on this site, with the same 6 year health guarantee that all my pups enjoy. Vlad's new family will be required to attend 2 successive obedience courses within 6 months to ensure his continued good behavior and manners.
