Our breed

“Healthy dog” breeding

1. As a health specialist with 30 years of experience, you know exactly what is needed to keep everyone healthy, to keep ailments and diseases at bay or to heal them in a completely natural way. And what holds for human health, applies to animals as well!

2. The White Swiss Shepherd is a new, healthy breed, recognised officially by the FCI since 6 July 2011.

3. Our dogs live together with our horses and donkeys on a natural 5-hectare estate surrounded by woods. The healthy, oxygen-rich air, the freedom to come and go, play together and run around on large estate… all contribute to sound health.

4. Our puppies are bred in a completely natural manner, just like wolves raise their cubs… for healthy, strong, happy dogs:

• They are born and bred in a well insulated small wooden house without heating or heating lamp, on a thick pile of straw
• When they begin to walk, they go out and come back again on their own strength – discovering their world more and more in open nature, playing with everything they come across outside, watchful and observant! This is very important for a healthy development of body and mind and leads to an intelligent, cheerful dog full of self-confidence.
• The mother keeps her litter and her puppies clean herself and then takes them later out for walks which leads to early house-training, just like wolves.
• Because the wolf instinct is preserved in their natural environment, the puppies are raised by their mother, siblings and all other dogs in the herd, and learn their limits from early on when it comes to playing, biting and what is “not allowed.”
• Thanks to the constant contact with the earth and the living nature, the puppies grow strong and are immunised in a natural way.

5. All our dogs are:

• Completely dysplasia free
• MDR – gen - +/+
• Tested for sight, hearing and character
• Free from disease and hereditary disorders
• 100% healthy – They have never needed any medication other than the Dogminth or Drontal wormer.

6. We are privileged to enjoy the exclusive cooperation of the renowned veterinary surgeon Ralph Bruinaars, who comes to examine, test and vaccinate our puppies. Dr Bruinaars lectures in Germany on the healthy propagation of animals.

7. We are always available for advice on feeding, health and rearing, also after a puppy has left us.

8. Last but not least: everyone’s got organic food thoroughly - not only our whole family, but also all the dogs, horses, donkeys and goats. Also for our welcome guests there is always a delicious cup of coffee or tea with an organic goody offered!
