Is there logic behind naming our dogs!

Is there logic behind naming our dogs!

Several times I’ve been asked how we come up with the names for our dogs and what does it all mean. My answer is, it is a great record keeping tool!

So let’s start with my puppy GCH. Ch. Heidelberg’s Kodiak v Queridad, CGC. I will break it down so when you see the name of your puppy or your puppy’s family, it will make more sense!

  • GCh. – Grand Champion, a title Kodi earned.
  • Ch. – Champion, a title Kodi earned
  • Heidelberg’s – because this is the Type of dogs we breed.
  • Kodiak – all of our litters are assigned the next letter in the alphabet when they are born. Then all the puppies in that litter are registered with a name beginning with that letter.
  • v – meaning “of” is used by us only when naming the males.
  • Querida – Kodi’s mother.
  • d – for Diamond, Querida’s mom.
  • CGC – Canine Good Citizen, a title Kodi earned.

Now when I see GCh. Ch. Heidelberg’s Kodiak v Queridad, CGC I know his mother is Querida Diamondw, and Diamond Winsomeu is out of Winsome Umber.

So if I see you out and about, I can ask for your dog’s registered name and I can usually give you their pedigree based on the mothers.

If you have any questions about why we do things that you are interested in or don’t know why we would “do it like that”, please ask and we will explain it so more people understand!

Have a great day!

Patty & GCh. Ch. Kodi, CGC

Puppies for sale!

Looking for a new puppy to add to your family? We currently have puppies for sale!  Not all are ready to go home yet, but several are!

Our Heidelberg puppies have all their shots and worming’s are completed. These puppies are ready to go to their new forever homes.

Two of the puppies are long coats, so if you are interested in a long coat, now is the time to come get one or two!  The parents are all currently being shown and have points towards their Championships.  The parents of these puppies are going to be shown in Claremore, Oklahoma at the All-Breed show, so please plan to come see them at the show March 27-31, 2019 at the Claremore Expo.  Watch our Show Info page on our website and Facebook for more details on the upcoming show.

They are loving and fun puppies.  We are taking deposits on them and you can come pick them up!  If you are interested in seeing them, please call or text Dean at 918-261-4729.

They were raised in a home with a teenager and an eight year old, so you know they have been played with a lot.  They are used to other dogs and kids.  We have sold one of the girls in this litter, but there is one more girl and two more boys.

The 8 week old puppies already have one girl sold and a deposit on one of the boys.  That leaves one girl and four boys to pick from.  These puppies were raised by Gayle Boatner of “German Shepherd Dedicated Owners”.  Gayle has some video and pictures on the Facebook Group, German Shepherd Dedicated Owners and tons of pictures of the parents!

Deposits are $300 and puppies are $2,000.  We also sell dog food, supplements, crates, and toys.  You will receive full registration and a 4 generation pedigree showing all the Champions and Grand Champions in your puppies line.  If you are needing supplements, they can be ordered from our website and we will ship it straight to you.
