High Caliber Shilohs is very pleased to announce that we will be welcoming puppies from beautiful and sweet momma Kiana and huge, handsome daddy Aggie in June. We expect robust, healthy puppies with solid temperaments and beautiful, broad heads and chests from these two champion Shilohs. Correct and balanced structure, good movement, topline and tails should also be passed on from both parents.

 

Aggie is a quite an impressive boy at 31 inches tall, broad and heavy boned, with a fantastic, big, blocky head and wonderfully thick coat and tail. Despite his size, Aggie still has beautiful, smooth movement and has won Breed, Canadian, Rarities and International Championships as well as National Select awards, Canine Good Neighbor Certification and his Herding Instinct Certificate. He is a friendly and confident boy with a laid back personality and loves running the trails through the woods and fields at his home and swimming in the stream and his very own pond.

 

Kiana is our sweet and exuberant grey sable girl with a velvety soft plush coat. She delights in outrunning all our other Shilohs and then strutting around the yard with the 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 is the biggest cuddlebug in our pack. 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 mostly sables expected. These puppies should have nice size and substance and make wonderful companions and protectors, with confident, yet calm and friendly temperaments. We also expect some great show/breed prospects, as both parents have already produced conformation champions, and think that pups from this pairing could also do well with therapy work. If you are interested in one of these puppies, please contact me soon to reserve yours.

We are very pleased to announce our upcoming Colby-Nola breeding! Colby is a laid-back, sweet and affectionate boy. He is handsome with a beautiful dark face, a bountiful black and silver plush coat, a full saber tail and a large, masculine head. Colby makes friends wherever he goes! In limited conformation showing, Colby earned several Championships and is a multiple Best In Show winner, as well as a National Select! He has also passed a Temperament Test.

 

Nola is a well-balanced red/brown sable girl with an endearing manner. She has an impressive head, a gorgeous black face, and a winning smile. When visitors come calling, Nola quickly becomes their new best friend. Nola has a solid frame, a perfect saber tail, and good bone. She's a great girl!

 

From the Nola-Colby breeding, we expect outgoing, intelligent puppies with proper conformation, great movement, and excellent health! These puppies will have amazing temperaments; they will turn themselves inside out to please the people they love. This breeding carries pure Shiloh lines and minimal outcross blood. We can’t wait to see these babies!

 

High Caliber will have a puppy available from this breeding. To reserve your Colby-Nola puppy, contact us today!

Welcome!

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.
