about: Bonita vom Kerschberger

Ms. Personality contest winner hands down!

Bonita inherited her superior confidence from both her Sire AND her Dam.  She was from a single pup litter born here at exactly midnight of December the 8th, 2003.   Maybe it was due to her having all the attention and no competition in the litter that made her this confident.  I saw this again with Hermania vom Kerschberger, also a single pup.  Then, of course, they are raised by the pack and when that is done right, they survive by being fearless.  In order to better the breed the following three C's I seek.  Confidence, Courage and Character.  The 4th C, Conformation, that too I seek, as she has that as well.  

Bonita was line bred on Jello von der Wienerau, known as the 'perfect gaiter'.   He placed 14th in the World Championships.   Bonita is a dead wringer to her Dam Madonna, a superb example of a German Shepherd female.  The only reason why I didn't title Bonita, is that I couldn't be without her.  As much as she is deserving, life is too short, and being without her was, and still is, not an option.    For this reason, pups from an untitled parent, are offered at a lower price and with limited AKC registration only.   Pups from this super combination will be highly suitable for any dog sport such as Schutzhund, IPO, PSAk9,  any AKC sport, and Search and Rescue, volunteer OR professional,  Assistance dog, or just plain terrific as a great family companion dog to hang out with hiking the mountains.   

Elbows rated normal, Hips rated a2,  Rated at 4 and 1/2 yrs at age!!!

    Carrier (A/N)

    This dog is heterozygous A/N, with one mutated copy of the gene and one normal copy of the gene, and is classified as a carrier. In the seven breeds studied at the University of Missouri in depth so far, dogs with test results of A/N have never been confirmed to have DM. While it is highly unlikely this dog will ever develop DM, this dog can transmit either the normal gene or the mutated gene to its offspring.

    Since Kerschberger  tests ALL breeding stock for the Degenerative Myelopathy certification from the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) the chances are slim that the pups will carry the DM gene or develop DM.  Click these images for the larger version of the DM certificate.  DM is NOT hip dysplasia, its deterioration of the spinal cord (MS in people)

    Please read the IMPORTANT DM Health Page.

        NORMAL

    Kerschberger is the FIRST breeder in the USA to test their breeding stock for this horrific genetic and paralyzing disease so to avoid this in future Kerschberger generations - 21% of German Shepherd tested dogs are 'AT RISK', which means 1 in 5 dogs born will likely develop DM.  The cost of diagnosis are very high, and the onset can start as early as 7 years.  No dog we know of has lived more than 16 months after initial symptoms!!! 

    Please read the DNA Registration Page for more info

     

    Pricing of a pup is offered with LIMITED AKC Registration for family companion dog.  Prices always include shipping, Shipping Crate, DNA certificates of parents, DM certificates of parents, Health Certificate, First Parvo Vaccination, Worming, Avid Microchip, in ear Tattoo ID.

    About Eiko:  Eiko is the son of super producer VA7 Ghandi von Arlett,  and also the grand son ofthe year 2000 VA1 Ursus von Batu, "WORLD CHAMPION".  Eiko is strong, very athletic and powerful with a masculine large head at four years young.  A stud with good working abilities, a very social dog with strong presence and superior over-all typey GSD male.  Click Eiko's Belgian Pedigree below.  The R litter was Eiko's fifth overall litter, two in Belgium and the 3rd vom Kerschberger litter. 

    Eiko's Dam comes over the WORLD FAMOUS Wienerau lines. Two times V7 Trixi vom Klebinger Schloss!!! 

    Eiko has a super gentle character, loves everyone and was raised in Belgium around kids and small dogs.  He is ever ready to please and ready to play attitude in any circumstance.  I am so lucky and proud to have this young Wienerau bloodlined stud into my German shepherd breeding program

    Kerschbergers images have  been misused on several personal and public websites to imply that my dogs are images of their dogs. This is outright misrepresentation and therefore I have started to WaterMark the dogs images which are on my site and belong to me, the breeder of vom Kerschberger German Shepherds.    IF you find images of Kerschberger dogs on any other site I would greatly appreciate that you report it to me.   Copyright 2009  All rights reserved.

    Pricing of a U litter pup is offered at LIMITED AKC Registration for family companion dog.        

    Prices always include:

    Shipping, Shipping Crate, DNA certificates of parents, DM certificates of parents, Health Certificate, First Parvo Vaccination, Worming,  Microchip & Hip Health Guarantee as detailed in the purchase contract. 

    Deposit is due upon reservation.

    Please consider the following:

    * you get what you pay for - if price is most important to you, as opposed to everything else that  genuinely matters, then, you can,  no doubt,  purchase a 'cheap' pup anywhere from any one's back yard.

    *  I can not reply to emails without full names * no telephone numbers, and/or "one-liners" such as 'how much is a puppy' 

    * I know from experience that if someone is serious about their pup inquiry, they write a serious and genuinely written email which they will then receive a like email from me or they call me.  

    * Emails are time consuming, for me, just as much as for you.  As my internet presence grows, I notice, of course, more and more brief emails are sent across cyberspace. 

    * Also, I will not reply to emails which ask me to check another breeder for them.
