Panzer came to us from Peggy Jackson, Royal German Shepherds as a 9 week old puppy.  We celebrated his 12th birthday on May 21, 2007.

Panzer has bad hips and elbows despite the fact that both parents had all their clearances but with the right meds, he continues to delight us with his goofy shepherd ways while never loosing his regal presence.  He helps raise all the babies who are bred here by us, he has a way of teaching puppies good manners with firmness yet an obvious gentleness.  Panzer has always been as gentle as a lamb with puppies, never scaring or hurting them but allowing them to climb all over him while exploring the world around them under his ever watchful eye. 

We have always considered Panzer our Golden in a Shepherds skin.  All who meet him fall in love with this gentle giant.  We know our time with this sweet boy is limited and treasure every moment. 

We are so thankful that we have had the opportunity to be loved by such a devoted friend and hope he will grace us with his presents for a long time to come.

Pictures include Panzer entertaining an orphaned hound dog puppy as well as giving gentle kisses to a Golden puppy in his care.
