Rushlands Past......The Girls

''Havoc'' Nyrvana Albay At Rushlands Blue And Gold DOB 30/10/1997 - 19/07/2001 Hips 8/8 Bred by Mrs M Nyrvana Jones

Havoc had only one litter before I retired her. She was a beautiful bodied bitch with a phenomenal coat and more character than she knew what to do with! Her main character flaw was that she simply did not switch off, which made her a fantastic dog to work, but a hard dog to live with. Most of her puppies went to experienced homes, where many do agility etc, but my personal drive at the time was to produce a more laid-back bloodline, and so Havoc was not bred from again.

''Chelsea'' Arystone Chelsea Girl At Rushlands Blue And Gold 11/06/1997-21/09/2007 Hips 8/8 Bred by Mrs H Clanchy

Chelsea was a 42 kilo dense coated (but not particularly long coated) girl. She was adoring and eager to please. Always happy, trustworthy with all livestock, and devoted to friends children. Her main physical flaws were her tendency to ring her tail to the right and she had a weak stop, although she had a heavy, blunt muzzle, which disguised this to a degree. She was a very doggy bitch in the flesh.

Mishka was everything physically that I find beautiful in the GSD, and her character was 'true shepherd'. A loyal, steady, workable dog, who was totally trustworthy, yet did not need to be anyones best friend other than her immediate human companion. She was an effortless mother, careful, attentive and gentle. She moved like no other shepherd I have ever seen. With such precision you could 'predict each footfall'. She was small, stocky, and powerful in flight. She was breathtaking and I was so lucky to have owned her. She came to me via Mrs D Linfield, who knew that Mishka needed a new home.

Bracken is the litter sister to Zolek Zuni (Hips 3:4), who was the sire of Rushlands Skandal Bracken is amongst the most serene GSD's I have ever encountered. She loves everything and everyone. She is as gentle as a deer. Sadly Bracken was taken ill with necrosis of the uterus in 2003, and I made the decision to spay her. She now lives with a family member, where she enjoys the best that one to one dog ownership can provide.

''She'rah'' Rushlands Kaliska at Debylyn Black and Gold 29/09/2000 Hips 4:4 She'rah at eight weeks

She'rah was a sensitive, loving, well-proportioned bitch. As an adult she fulfilled her early 'promise' and blossomed into a fabulous bitch. She was owned by Mrs Debbie Simms-Walker, and gave two litters. She'rah sadly is no longer with us. Following a tragic incident in 2003, whilst enjoying a wonderful life after 'retiring', She'rah died and left all concerned deeply saddened. She is sorely missed by all who loved her. x x x
