AVAILABLE PLUSH PUPPIES!!
KIANA/KILIAN - b NOVEMBER 13, 2011
Breed/Show Quality Plush Puppies

 

Onyx - Sable Boy


Topaz, Sable Girl

The Kiana/Kilian puppies have proven to be everything we had hoped for! We have a very typey litter with broad heads, short, wide muzzles, and the large bone and wide chests we love. These pups love people and are very sociable, adjusting quickly to their new homes and routines. All six have great structure and movement to boot. We have kept pick male and one of the two pick females (very much alike), to see if there is anyone interested in an excellent show/breed prospect male or female. Topaz girl has already attended her first show in Philadelphia and won Reserve Best Puppy In Show. If you are interested in one of these puppies, please contact us soon! Loving, caring homes are our priority, so they will be sold as cherished pets as well.

[Brick Chapel Shilohs]

 

High Caliber Shilohs and Brick Chapel Shilohs are very happy to announce the upcoming puppies from the beautiful and sweet momma Kiana and the handsome, proud papa Kilian. We expect wonderful temperaments, nice broad heads, and good size and substance from these two champion Shilohs.

 

Kilian is a handsome plush brown sable with a thick coat, nice small ears, and a proud bearing. He has a beautiful head, nice bone, width of chest, and beautifully balanced structure. His calm and dignified demeanor further serves to make him a very impressive Shiloh with much to offer our breed. His conformation titles, National Select awards, Adult Temperament Test and Canine Good Citizen certificates show that he possesses exceptionally good structure and temperament.

 

Kiana is our sweet and exuberant grey sable girl with a velvety soft plush coat. She delights in outrunning all our other Shilohs and them strutting around the yard with ball she beat them to. Watching her move is like poetry in motion, yet in the house she is content to lie on the couch and cuddle and loves to rub her whole body against you like a cat. Kiana achieved her conformation title in her first two weekends of showing and also has earned Top Dog and National Select awards and her Adult Temperament Test and Canine Good Citizen certificates.

 

We will have all plush puppies in this litter with both sables and duals expected. Temperaments should be medium to medium soft. These pups will make wonderful companions, good therapy dog prospects, and we should also have some excellent show/breed prospects, as both the sire and the dam have already produced pups who have attained their grand championships before the age of two. If you are interested in one of these puppies, please contact me soon to reserve yours.

Welcome

cal-i-ber - degree of excellence - degree of moral quality

 

High Caliber Shilohs is a small breeding program located in Centre County, Pennsylvania, that is dedicated to breeding Shiloh Shepherds with stable temperaments, superior conformation, and excellent health. Our six Shilohs live with us in a large house we built in 2007 and have one acre of fenced yard in which to play. We do not confine our Shilohs to kennels or crates; they share the entire house with us and are our only “children”. Our Shiloh Shepherds are greatly loved and well socialized. All six of our Shilohs have received their Canine Good Citizen certificates and two are certified with Therapy Dogs International.

 

We enjoy competing in conformation shows in order to promote our Shiloh Shepherds, to prove their proper structure, movement, and conformity to breed standard, and to socialize with other breeders and exhibitors and meet their Shilohs. We often attend shows held by organizations such as NAKC, IABCA, NKC, ICKC and specialties held by our breed club, the International Shiloh Shepherd Dog Club (ISSDC). Our Shilohs have earned many Championship titles and awards with these organizations as well as with our registry, the National Shiloh Breeders Registry (NSBR).

 

Just as important as the conformation of our Shiloh Shepherds is their versatility in other areas as well. We have two Shilohs, Moose and Terra, who are certified therapy dogs and go on visits to nursing homes and the Special Olympics. We also have two Shilohs, Murphy and Terra, who are herding instinct certified and we hope to continue training for this exciting activity, which comes naturally to many Shilohs. All six of our Shilohs have had varying levels of agility training and each enjoy their time spent with this fun sport. But we also have plenty of unstructured fun with off leash hiking in the woods, camping trips, swimming, going to the dog park and to baseball games and meeting new people at pet expos.

 

The health of our Shiloh Shepherds and of our future generations is of the utmost importance to us. We perform health testing for hips, elbows, heart, eyes, and thyroid, as well as DNA testing for degenerative myelopathy and a TLI blood test that shows indications of Endocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency. Each breeding we do is extensively researched and the sire and dam are carefully chosen so as to complement each other in conformation, genetically, and in health and temperament. Our goal is to continually improve upon each of these aspects of our dogs. We look for loving homes and dedicated owners for our Shiloh Shepherds who will keep us updated with reports on the health, temperaments, and personalities of our puppies as well as provide us with lots of photos of them so we can see how they develop. It is very important to know what each breeding has produced so that we may continue to improve upon the breed so dear to our hearts, the Shiloh Shepherd!

 

Please feel free to give us a call at (814) 387-0124 or send us an email at calibershilohs@yahoo.com with any questions you may have about this very special breed. Visits to our home are welcomed and encouraged.
