German Shepherds have been part of my life since
1963. Ch. Walka vom Elbbachtal ROMC, second highest
ROMC bitch at the time, OFA-6769T Excellent, was imported
at a young age from Germany in 1973. She died at 13
years of age of a heart attack while chasing our
cattle. She never tolerated them.
Even now Walka's imprint is still visible in my breeding
program after several generations. She was my
foundation bitch. She was bred to Ch. Cobert's Reno of
Lakeside ROM three times and to Ch. Kubistraum's Kane ROM
twice.
Walka, or Juno, which was her call name, was the second
highest top producing bitch in 1985.

When bred to Reno, she
produced Am. & Can. Ch. Valor of Cedar, ROMC OFA, four
times Best in Show with limited showing.
He was one
of Canada's top winning males, No. 2 in 1979 and No. 3 in
1981. the top winning male, Ch. Citizen Kane
"O" Quanlin, was also a Valor son. |
|
| When
Valor's sister, Dream of Cedar, was bred to Sel.
Am. Ch. Wellspring's Ironside, the super
star, Sel. Am. & Sel. Can. Ch. Omar of
Cedar, was born.
Omar
finished his Canadian championship at 14 months
and his American title at 18 months going best of
Breed from the classes at the 1981 Reno, Nevada
Specialty.
Omar's distinguished career as one of Canada's top
winning shepherds, with limited showing, included
Best in Show, Group, and Specialty wins, beginning
with the following in 1982:
Best
in Northwestern Futurity, U.S.
Best male in Northwestern Maturity, U.S.
Best male in Western Region, Canada
Select at the Canadian National, Judge Ed Barrit
Select at the U.S. National, Judge Ernest Loeb
Omar has made
substantial contributions to the improvement of
the breed. He was the highest ROMC sire in
the history of the breed in Canada, producing more
than 57 champions! |

| My
next star, 12 years old, is Sel. Can. Am. Ch.
Bakervue's Bremen of Cedar OFA. He is linebred
on Omar.
Here I am pleased
to thank my friend, Linda Fulton, who bred Breman
and permitted me to have the pick puppy from his
dam, Tutzie of Cedar. Breman is a worthy
successor to my strong male line of Valor, Omar, and
Woden. He enjoys life on eight beautiful acres
on Bowen Island, 20 minutes by ferry from West
Vancouver, B.C., Canada.
Keeping a small
number of dogs gives me the pleasure of truly
enjoying each of them! During these past
thirty-eight years I have always tried to breed the
perfect German Shepherd, learning all the
time. Throughout this period, with limited
breeding, Cedar Kennels has produced over 100
champions. I enjoy the small number of puppies
I have each year, as well as the fun of showing my
dogs.
Especially
rewarding are the wonderful people I get to know!
