Atlantic Sable Shilohs

Atlantic Sable Shilohs is not a large-scale breeder. We have a small family of three of these incredible Shilohs. These beautiful creatures have never been caged nor tied and never will. They are an integral part of our family and are free to roam our small hobby farm, although they very seldom wander very far from the house and/or barn, home of their extended family of a few horses (and foals), cows (and calves) and sheep (and lambs). Visitors (& strangers) are often greeted by a pack of 120lb+ Shilohs running to meet them, which initially is an intimidating experience until the visitor(s) realize that the real danger is in being swatted by their wagging tails. The social attitude, intelligence & gentle demeanor of the Shiloh Shepherd are the traits that really make them a 'Rare Breed'!

We received our 'Braemar', a beautiful plush Golden Sable, during New Year's 2000 from Tina Barber, New Zion, after my having researched this breed for almost two years. Even though I was confident in my research, I still didn't know the Shiloh Shepherd. Braemar actually taught us about the breed. She's 'very' confident, loves people and children, not aggressive and extremely intelligent. She's incredible! After delivering three beautiful litters, she retired in 2005 and is now a Therapy Dog + our farm 'Queen'! Her puppies continue to thrive throughout Canada / U.S. and her puppy owners still maintain contact with news and pictures. Thankfully, a few of her young 'uns never left home and still live with us (the grandparents). These are her daughters Silver (Braemar/Draco, 2003), a Dark Grey Sable, and Brea (Braemar/Samson, 2005), a Light Grey Sable. Additionally, Tesa (Braemar/Ajax, 2004) lives in a fantastic home on a farm next door with our friend and neighbour. These are our beautiful girls and the basis of our breeding operation to promote and advance this beautiful dog. We breed for size, temperament and intelligence. Our puppies are 'big' with a medium - medium soft temperament & we do not encourage aggressiveness. Their nature is to be a fantastic 'best friend' and integral part of the family.

Silver: 135lbs (Braemar/Draco, 2003; Hips & Elbows: OFA - Fair/Good) passed Canadian Kennel Club requirements for Canine Good Neighbour Test and has proven to be an excellent Mama. She met Johann in 2005 and delivered her 1st litter of '10' fatsos, Last year we introduced her to Oscar ........ and voila ....... '12' more furballs ........ WOW!

Brea: 136lbs (Braemar/Samson, 2005; Hips & Elbows: OVC - Normal), already a Therapy Dog, has yet to reach breeding age. Soon (2007) we hope she will be ready, as we're really looking forward to her puppies. She has already demonstrated her motherly instincts helping Silver in the nurturing and herding of her puppies.

Tesa: 130lbs (Braemar/Ajax, 2004; Hips & Elbows OVC - Normal), a Dark Grey Sable, recently passed her examination & we're anxiously awaiting 'mother nature' after introducing her to Oscar. Her first litter of furballs should be arriving during spring/07.

Our girls are very, very picky about their 'guy' friends and are only interested in 'perfect gentlemen'. He has to be genetically right, healthy, have the right temperament, of reasonable size, conformation 'and' intelligence in order to be considered 'the' perfect Sire for our girls! In 2005, after several years research, we found our Oscar, a Black & Red Sable, and the 'perfect gentleman'.

We continue to search for more nice guys to introduce to our girls though. Brodie recently met Tesa and, as any responsible parent should, we are always searching the landscape for more such gentlemen. Also, we're awaiting the arrival of a new 'little' guy, soon to be introduced to the world.

Other new additions to our World of Shilohs include 'Greta' and 'Sally'.

Photos and info coming soon!

It may be difficult to imagine, however, we have three (3) adult Shilohs living here and, occasionally, have 4, 5 or or even more adult Shilohs here at one time (excluding when there are puppies around). They all get along perfectly well ...... are loose ........ and playing ..... they are incredible!
