"Messi" Messi von Nord Traum OFA Excellent Hips & Normal Elbows @ 13 mos. DM Clear N/N MDR1: Clear N/N Color: Dominant Black Presenting a very unique addition to our program here at West Coast German Shepherds. We imported Messi along with her sister Meleina as puppies from their breeder overseas a little over three years ago. They are not only special in their solid black color being that they are of German showline blood, but with many VA dogs in their unique pedigree such as 2 time VA1 Vegas du Haut Mansard, VA2 Quenn vom Loher Weg, both of those VA dogs have been a part of our program before through Vegas' grandson our VA Randy vom Leithawald and Quenn's son our V1 Zamp von der Urbecke. And of course let me explain this rare dominant black color, so when bred to any typical black/red males they will produce solid black, black/red puppies. They both carry a gene inherited from their father and the generations behind him called "the dominant black gene consists of three different alleles, or variants. The first allele, which is dominant, is notated as "KB," or dominant black. The dominant black allele is actually a mutation that reduces or eliminates the expression of the agouti gene (A locus). To learn more about the agouti gene and the dominant black gene please visit www.animalgenetics.us . Because this mutation is dominant, a dog only needs to have one copy of the mutation to affect the agouti locus. If a dog is KB/KB or KB/n that means that they will be solid black in color. Both sisters exhibit excellent temperaments, they are great companions to our family and excellent guardians too. They both have excellent structure and movement. We are so excited for their future with us here, and can't wait to snuggle their little black puppies! Their first litters will finally arrive in early 2019 here at West Coast German Shepherds. ​ ​ Messi at 4 weeks Messi 3 months Messi at 12 weeks Messi 3 months Father: Rasmus von Nord Traum rasmusfinlandsg5 rasmusfinland 59939_Results_MessiDM 59940_Results_MessiCoat 59941_Results-1_Messi_Color 59941_Results-1_Messi_ColorPg2

Anchor 4 UC Davis German Shepherd Study Finds Early Neutering & Spaying Poses Health Risks for German Shepherd Dogs Quick Summary Neutering before 1 year of age triples risk of some joint disorders Urinary incontinence risks elevated in female dogs spayed before age 1 Previous studies also found early neutering risks for golden retrievers and Labrador retrievers https://www.ucdavis.edu/news/early-neutering-poses-health-risks-german-shepherd-dogs-study-finds/ ​ Renowned for their intelligence, obedience and loyalty, German shepherd dogs are often the preferred breed for police and military work, as well as popular service dogs and family pets. But as most handlers, breeders and veterinarians are aware, joint disorders are a big concern in these animals. A new study in the journal Veterinary Medicine and Science finds that neutering or spaying these dogs before 1 year of age triples the risk of one or more joint disorders — particularly for cranial cruciate ligament, or CCL, tears. “Debilitating joint disorders of hip dysplasia, CCL and elbow dysplasia can shorten a dog’s useful working life and impact its role as a family member,” said lead investigator Benjamin Hart, a distinguished professor emeritus in the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine. “Simply delaying the spay/neuter until the dog is a year old can markedly reduce the chance of a joint disorder.” Dog owners in the United States typically choose to spay or neuter their dogs prior to 6 months of age, in large part to prevent pet overpopulation or hoping to avoid unwanted behaviors. In Europe, however, neutering is generally avoided by owners and trainers and not promoted by animal health authorities, Hart said. During the past decade, some studies have indicated that spaying or neutering can have several adverse health effects for certain dog breeds. For example, a 2014 study published in PLoS ONE and also led by Hart, examined the health records of over 1,000 golden retrievers and found a surprising fourfold increase in one or more joint disorders associated with spay or neuter before 1 year of age. In the same paper, joint disorders in Labrador retrievers were found to be increased by just twofold in dogs spayed or neutered in the first year. For this current study, researchers examined veterinary hospital records over a 14.5-year period on 1,170 intact and neutered (including spayed) German shepherd dogs for joint disorders and cancers previously associated with neutering. The diseases were followed through 8 years of age, with the exception of mammary cancer in females, which was followed through 11 years. The dogs were classified as intact (not neutered), neutered before 6 months, neutered between 6 to 11 months, or neutered between 12 to 23 months and 2 to 8 years. Joint disorders and cancers are of particular interest because neutering removes male and female sex hormones that play key roles in important body processes such as closure of bone growth plates. Seven percent of intact males were diagnosed with one or more joint disorders, compared to 21 percent of males neutered prior to a year of age. In intact females, 5 percent were diagnosed with one or more joint disorders, while in females neutered prior to 1 year of age this measure was significantly increased to 16 percent. Mammary cancer was diagnosed in 4 percent of intact females compared with less than 1 percent in females neutered before 1 year of age. (The occurrence of the other cancers followed through 8 years of age was not higher in the neutered than in the intact dogs.) Urinary incontinence, not diagnosed in intact females, was diagnosed in 7 percent of females neutered before 1 year of age. “In addition to dogs suffering pain from joint disorders, the condition may also disqualify the dog as a working partner in military and police work,” Hart said. “We hope these findings provide evidence-based guidelines for deciding the right age to neuter a puppy to reduce the risk of one or more joint disorders.” Other researchers on this UC Davis study were: Lynette Hart and Abigail Thigpen, School of Veterinary Medicine; and Neil Willits, Department of Statistics. The research was supported by the Canine Health Foundation and donors to the Center for Companion Animal Health.

Her story began when we imported her beautiful great grandmother, our first and very special sable import female V1 Mousy von Dakota, IPO1, Angek. Mousy was bred in Germany prior to import to the well known and highly rated V1 Geromino vom Team Panoniansee, SchH3. Geronimo is known for his exquisite head, excellent structure and type, and most importantly his excellent protection work scoring 5/5 in the courage test at the German Sieger show.

"Twosie" aka Imagoodytwo von der Westkuste, a UKC BOB winner was our keeper from that breeding.

About Us 'Remembering Our Past, Living in the Present and Looking to the Future...Always with Our German Shepherd Dogs.' My name is Barbie DiBernardo and I would like to tell you a little bit about our family, our goals and our commitment to the German Shepherd Dog here at West Coast German Shepherds. Together with my husband Kip and our son Alden we strive to provide the best quality German Shepherd to you with an outstanding temperament that will in turn make a lasting impression on you and your family like they have in ours. I have so many customers that have been lifelong fans of the German Shepherd, that have grown up with German Shepherds and long for that companionship again with the dog of their childhood. ​ My husband Kip, our son Alden and I all share a great love for the German Shepherd having owned them now for over 25 years, started for all of us as children. Mine began with a wonderful dog I met at the age of six that was owned by my two adult brothers, I was fascinated by her and how quickly we became attached to each other while on that short vacation to visit my brothers. She was a great dog and I dreamed of having one of my own someday. Once I was able to have a dog the only dog I wanted was a German Shepherd, there was never a question. Already a mother by this time I wanted to be sure that the dog I got would be good with our son Alden. My husband Kip had the great fortune of being raised with a wonderful German Shepherd named 'Dina', she was the family protector and was a wonderful babysitter for Kip and his three siblings, so the choice for us was clear. ​ We adopted a ten month old bi-color male we named 'Touchdown', and yes at two years old my son was a major football fanatic! Touchdown was the best, he was so great with Alden and never even had a bad thought cross his mind about him, no matter how many times Alden took his ball or tried to tackle him like a football player, Touchdown took it all in stride and was perfectly sweet. We then added an adult black and red male we named 'Irish', yes, we had 'Touchdown' & 'Irish', and yes we are Notre Dame fans. Irish and Touchdown became the best of friends to both each other and to Alden. During our two years that we lived in Ohio, they would pull him on his sled through the snow in the front yard and entertain us catching snowballs. They were great dogs and we still miss them to this day, they both lived to the age of thirteen and we consider ourselves blessed for having them in our lives. They will always be remembered with love and we miss them dearly. ​ It was a dream of mine to someday be able to raise German Shepherds with great bloodlines and temperaments for other families like ours to enjoy and love. That dream became a reality in January 2007 and we have enjoyed every minute of it. We actively show our dogs in the German style show ring on a national and international level and therefore we strive to breed dogs of quality bloodlines and structure that adhere to the German SV standard for the German Shepherd dog. ​ Health is of utmost importance to us and we know it is to you as well, all of our dogs are hip and elbow certified through either the German SV a-Stamp Program or through the OFA. Additionally all of our dogs are tested clear for Degenerative Myelopathy. I am fortunate to have a very hard working husband that enables me to be a full-time dog mom. In keeping a small number of dogs we have time to give plenty of love and individual attention to them and the puppies when we have them. Our dogs are not kept in kennels, they live with us as part of our family, with room to roam outside on our one acre property and they always have a warm spot inside to sleep. We make every effort to continue to learn and to improve our bloodlines by importing dogs of superior quality with top German VA bloodlines to both further our own show and breeding program and to bring you the highest and best quality puppy for you and your family to enjoy. We look forward to providing you and your family with the dog of your dreams. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Next I would like to tell you a little about our partner Jes Osusky from Granada Hills, CA. Dogs as well as horses have been a passion for Jes since her childhood, she began showing horses and cattle and working dogs while growing up in Indiana and she has trained many service and detection dogs through the years. We feel fortunate to have someone of Jessa's experience and knowledge as part of our West Coast family, not only is she great with the dogs she is also a very good friend. Jessa takes outstanding care of our puppies and dogs and we know they are safe in her care. Jessa and her husband Greg do a wonderful job of socializing and handling the puppies, which is continued once the puppies are brought to us at 6-7 weeks of age. Our female Xasha lives with Jessa and her family. ​ Our puppies that are raised by our two partners are brought to us at the age of 7 weeks old. At this age they are no longer nursing except for maybe once a day if at all, as their mother is quite over the addition of their sharp little teeth a few weeks prior. The important part is that the litter stay together until the age of 8 weeks here at our home. Their adult dog lessons are lovingly taught to them by our matriarch Malibu as well as some of the other members of the pack. They are health checked by our veterinarian, microchipped and vaccinated once they arrive to our home. Both of our partners implement our feeding and deworming schedule while the puppies are in their care. They also send us photos of the puppies so we can keep you updated on their growth. ​ We want you to feel secure in knowing that whether your puppy is raised in our home or our partners, they are getting the very best in care and socialization. I would like to tell you a little about our two partners that we co-own some of our girls with. First I would like to introduce you to our partner Judy Baker from Nevada. We met Judy through Andre, she had purchased E Sissy vom Paukenschlag from Andre as a puppy. Judy lives on a gorgeous 1500 acre ranch in Nevada and the dogs and puppies get to enjoy ranch life and everything that comes with it! Judy's four year old son Dillon is our puppy socializer extraordinaire! His dogs and the puppies are his very best friends! Judy kept a female puppy from our first litter with Sissy and Zamp, and Anna and Dillon are inseparable, playing in the mud and the snow together and keeping Judy very busy of course! Dillon got to show Anna in December earning the top rating of Very Promising, Judy and Dillon ran their hearts out in the ring and Anna got a perfect critique from the SV judge. Having years of experience in raising livestock as well as puppies in the past, Judy does an outstanding job raising our West Coast puppies and we know they get the best in care and socialization. When the puppies are 6 to 7 weeks of age they travel to our home in style and the comfort of Judy's RV, this way they are able to take their time driving, thereby making the trip stress free for the puppies. Our male Kiro and our girls Anna, Cinder, Ruby, Oli & Blossom live with Judy. Dillon & Sissy Our Co-Own Families
