Dellaph German Shepherds & Shelties

Our German Shepherd dogs are bred from strong healthy stock with the most wonderful temperaments. Our Dellaph lines are mixed with Guidewell lines (Guide Dogs for the Blind Assoc’s affix) to create sound working / pet puppies. We are proud that our pups have qualified as search dogs with the police and as Guide Dogs with visually impaired owners throughout the UK and recently in the Republic of Ireland.

Some Dellaph GSDs have become working “Guide Dogs”.. Dellaph owners repeatedly return for further puppies of our breeding and regularly recommend new people to us.

The Irish Guide Dogs for the Blind now have many of our own “Dellaph” breeding. Also they have supplies from our late stud dog “Torman” to use in Artificial Insemination procedures with their brood stock.

“Izac” has become their first dual purpose dog, retrained to work alongside an Electric wheelchair as well as being an Assistance dog…..helping with household tasks.

One of our pups, Tazz, which was sold to the British Transport Police, has done really well in Competition. He has won the Rail Safe Obedience Competition 2003.

Also in May 2005 he received a Bravery Award for his actions when he confronted with 200 raging football hooligans.

His brother “Zeus” was pictured in the Daily Telegraph patrolling the first train to run on the Piccadilly line since the 7th July London Terrorist bombings.

OUR VALUES IN HEALTH

Breeding our GSDs & Shelties for over 40 years, we have kept healthy stock without many veterinary bills. We have always fed raw “Natural” diets, used homeopathy, garlic and believe in NOT over vaccinating. CHC (Canine health concern) is an organisation introduced to us a few years ago and highlight our views too. A “must see” web page. We recommend you subscribe to their newsletter. details available from their web site. Click here for CHC Web Site. Read the CHC article “Your Dog’s health – the basics facts” See Catherine O’Driscoll’s Book “What vets don’t tell you about vaccines” available from Amazon

For those who would like more information about Natural feeding and the dangers of additives in “so called” dog food now being manufactured for pets go to the paper written by Michael W. Fox BVetMed.Phd.Dsc.MRCVS CLICK HERE

GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG PUPPIES

We are very proud that most puppies from us go as wonderful friendly family pets . Many owners having had as many as 5 GSDs from us over the years.

Some pups compete in agility / obedience work and some qualify as “Pets as Therapy” (PAT) dogs.

If we have a request for a pup for breeding it will have an endorsement on the kennel club registration certificate that its progeny cannot be registered nor that it will be issued with an export certificate.

These endorsements will be lifted on production of proof that the pup has passed the required health tests at the appropriate time. This is to prevent indiscriminate breeding and to maintain the DELLAPH quality.
