​

Meet Willy, the ultimate turn-key companion and deterrent, setting the standard for social and versatile German Shepherd males. In my career, Willy stands out as the most socially adept dog, seamlessly adapting to camping trips, hotel stays, and vacations. He effortlessly lounges at our feet in outdoor restaurants and maintains focus even in the face of aggression from smaller dogs, showcasing his calm and collected demeanor. Willy is not only lovely with other dogs but also adores children, making him the perfect family companion.

​

During a summer road trip to Idaho, Willy and Bathilda joined us, proving his adaptability and trustworthiness. His amiable nature extends to the point where anyone, including friends' children, can confidently take him out for a walk without a second thought. His introduction into our family was marked by a heartwarming moment when he chose to sit in my son's lap and enjoy a treat, solidifying his bond with us.

​

Trained in the sport of Schutzhund/IGP to the second level, Willy excels in obedience, protection, and tracking. His innate ability to use his nose sets him apart. We've continuously refined his obedience and protection skills to ensure top-notch performance. Willy's prowess in personal protection is particularly noteworthy. He is an intimidating dog who confidently brings his presence up over the equipment into the decoy's face. I'm so glad he's not barking in my face!

​

What makes Willy even more special is his rich pedigree, tracing back to some of our favorite VA dogs, such as Team Marlboro Hilton, Yuri vom Osterberger Land, Mentos vom Osterberger-Land, Remo vom Fichtenschlag, Pacco vom Langenbungert, Yak vom Frankengold, Hoss vom Larchenhain, Zamp vom Thermodos, and more. Our intimate knowledge of his ancestry, spanning 15 years, instills confidence in Willy and the promising future of his offspring within our breeding program.

​

Beyond his impressive lineage and training, Willy's passion for play, especially with his beloved ball, adds a delightful touch to his personality. With Willy, you're not just getting a remarkable companion and protector but also a loyal and playful member of the family.
