Large &
Giant Breed Puppy
This formula is designed for those puppies
that will reach 50 pounds or more as an
adult. Its triple meat protein source builds
good solid muscle, providing optimum calcium
and phosphorus. In addition, there are
slightly fewer calories so that puppies
dont gain too much weight before their
bodies are ready to support it.

THIS is why you do not walk your dogs on asphalt or concrete
in the summer. If you see someone walking their dogs on
asphalt or concrete, PLEASE educated them and get the pet to
cooler ground. Original post was from Pet Ambulance Victoria
This should be sent to all the veterinarians including the specialists!
DOG PARK ALERT
We have received two notices.
(1) Nails wrapped in cheese at dog parks in Chicago and
Massachusetts (see pic). (2) from some friends that in
Augusta Maine dog park, antifreeze is being found in doggie
water bowls. Please beware and be careful and PLEASE SHARE
and spread the word
Ever wonder where puppy mill dogs come from? Here's an
example. Many get cooked alive in the sun and freeze to
death in the winter. If you purchase your dog from a pet
store, I can guarantee your "AKC" certified dog came from a
place like this. This one is even better than the ones
I saw in Iowa and Missouri!
Do you recognize she is a Yorkie?
Please do not purchase your pet from a Pet shop, Backyard
breeder or Commercial Puppy Mill.

dog must complete what the breeder began..." Max v. Stephanitz; Father of

BLOAT
Click chart to view larger version |
This is a real
combination of symptoms that spells out EMERGENCY. These are the classic
symptoms of a condition referred to as "bloat" - a dog that is pacing,
restless and has unproductive attempts to vomit.
This is a common problem in large breed
deep-chested dogs but can also occur in smaller dogs.
Basically what happens is this - the
stomach twists causing the blood supply to the stomach to be compromised
then leads to tissue death. As tissues are damaged, toxins are released
and a sequence of events occurs that if left untreated, leads to death.
If you ever notice these symptoms in
your dog, call your local veterinarian or emergency clinic as soon as
possible.
This is a condition that is fairly
common and often occurs in the evening or nighttime hours. It is also a
very expensive condition to treat.

Dealing with Excessive Barking
The first step to stopping barking is to understand why it is
happening. Dogs bark for all kinds of reasons, including
anxiety, boredom and/or loneliness. Sometimes they bark just
because it feels good. Luckily, most dogs will respond to
one or other intervention to curtail their barking. Whether you
simply bring an outdoor dog inside or take the time to apply
behavior-modification techniques, you can cause a dog to be less
of a nuisance and to be more socially acceptable. |
Removing Skunk Odor
|
|
No need for the tomato juice. Use a mixture of 10 parts hydrogen
peroxide to 1 part baking soda. Add a dash of degreasing
dishwashing soap and pour into a spray bottle. Spray liberally
over dry coat and allow to air dry. Avoid eyes. Works on other
objects, too! |

puppy pricing & Guarantee
Haus Merkel German Shepherds are noted for
their gentle, and loving disposition,
and are excellent in families with children.
Also noted for their eagerness to please &
easy trainability. Our dogs have excelled
in obedience and service to man in all
categories.
Please note: Due to the high cost of Importing/Titling/Hip
and Elbow certifications of our
young adults in Germany (so we can produce these
World Class puppies for those who want the very best)
We have no puppies to sell under $2500.
(Please book early for the "Choice" puppies;
Puppy reservations are limited and will be accepted in the
order the deposit payment is received.)
For puppy reservations, please call 214-287-8080
Some German Shepherd owners are told one sex
is better than the other— this is nonsense.
The German Shepherd's character and behavioral skills are
learned at a young age and it really
comes down to how well the puppy has been bred genetically
and socialized not what the sex is. There is a difference in size between the male and the female.
Males are usually 100 pounds plus
and females are generally 70 pounds plus from these bloodlines. We
do not breed small German Shepherds; our females have more
bone, size and head than the majority of other breeders
males.

Puppies are
chosen for the categories below according to
the
German
Conformation Ideal/Standard.
While most people say they do not want a show dog, I
will tell you why correct show dog structure
is so important for your dog to have and for
you to be looking for.
The German Shepherd Dog was created to be a
herding dog and is in the 'herding group'.
As a dog bred to trot effortlessly in
work...balance, forehand and rear drive is
desired and the Standard dictates it.
In the mechanics of movement the legs must
move cleanly not putting pressure or wear
and tear on the joints.
Therefore, correct structure will help when
your dog reaches old age; joints should
still be stable and free moving and
arthritis should be to a minimum. Our German
