    We own a beautiful German Shepard and decided that she needed a little brother and having…read moresuccessfully utilized CL for 15 years to buy and sell thought I would start there. I was hoping to get lucky and locate another wonderful GSD. There are several great local real serious GSD breeders (Von Waldberg for one) but we did not have the budget. So after a very disappointing few days searching through the disappearing, price changing, dubious pedigree, available but suddenly sold, wait for husband to get off work at 4 turning into wife off at 5, vaccinations with no vet records, parents on site but too aggressive to see and other scam dogs...we gave up. FOLKS BE VERY CAREFUL BUYING ANY DOGS ON CRAIGSLIST! Dog craze was at a fever pitch in our the family by now. I started looking for GSD real breeders on line and found several. One that looked good was Majestic Royal German Shepards in Puyallup. When I called the owner was very knowledgeable nice and sincerely listened. From a budget point of view I asked if she might have any " pet quality " pure bred GSDs that did not have to have AKC as we were not going breed or show. She did not at present but said she would ask around her freinds and other breeders (nice touch). Then told me of a freind that had a 7 week old female puppy with "special needs" that she was offering in turn for a good home. Enter Amanda Her little puppy had a condition called mega esophagus which means that the dog has to be seated vertically to be fed soft food and there is always a danger of aspiration pneumonia. After some research they may grow out of it however there is no surgical repair possible and no medication. We pondered and talked about it but felt even as very experienced dog people it would be more than we could handle. Reading between the lines Amanda had been caring for this puppy when most breeders would have put it down. Amanda was a dog lover with a tender heart not just someone in the dog business...cudos. Good sign folks. We declined sadly and were offered a male 10 weeks old and female 7 weeks old that she had that were ready. So Sunday evening my wife son and I headed for Graham...a day and a half drive dropping bread crumbs all the way so we could find our way back to Newcastle (just kidding). We were greeted by a gang of beautiful German Shepards different sizes coats and colors playing in a fenced turn out next to three kids jumping in a trampoline...choices kids another good sign. Amanda approached and escorted us into her compound complete with pigs chickens guinea hens calfs goats a horse and lots of GSDs and puppies all healthy clean thriving and smiling...more good sings. She brought out the male puppy that we had come to see and besides being handsome the little guy was not skiddish (always check) at all or shy and seemed very well adjusted curious clean shiny bright eyes and very cuddly. She then brought out the mother (father owned by Amanda's mother who lives close by) who was beautiful freindly and interacted with her puppy well although not nursing any longer. The puppy played well with mom and the pigs and played "stick" and ball and a little fetch...good sign again! We asked to see the all black female and one of her helpers brought her out and she was in the same condition and behaved in a similar fashion...tough choice. When asked if she had any other ready pups that we should see the helper quickly produced another female same condition in a beautiful sable color...way tough choice now. The three of us held cuddled and played with the three of them for an hour or more. I asked Amanda if she was anxious to find a home for one over the others and she quickly responded that she wanted us to make the right choice and be happy...wow. Now folks this was Sunday evening about dinner time with her two children going back to school after their spring break in the morning and their was no rush by Amanda for us to make our choice...nice customer service. BTW...she found a great home for her little health challenged baby with a local vet tech with children...angels I guess We chose the Black and Tan male with first shots AKC registry chipped with a health quarantee. Her assistant quickly chipped our new pup readied our paperwork efficiently and got us on our way. We excitedly raced home (following the crumbs) holding our new little boy while having a very animated chatter about what we had just experienced. Folks customer service is rare if not missing all together these days but let me tell you that Amanda at Von Tore K9 and her freinds family her GSDs puppies pig pigs and the rest of her menagerie have this down to a science. BTW...had him checked out at our vet with and received a glowing bill of health...not surprised. We highly recommend Von Tore for all of your dog needs check out their site vontorek9.com In love again Ricardo y Julia

    I have purchased 2 GSD from this breeder and have loved them both! All her dogs are health tested,…read morehappy and from great lines. Never had a problem, and always got fast responses when I had questions. Both dogs passed temperament and instinct testing from an independent trainer, in my area. I'll be getting my next GSD from Von Tore.

    If I could give them zero stars, I would. We got a wonderful charcoal lab from Circle B in 2016…read morewhen they were a smaller breeder. We decided to get another lab puppy from them in 2020. We put money down on a litter to pick a female puppy that was born in January 2021. We had first pick of our female puppy out of the two females from the litter. We went to pick her up when she was ready to big enough to leave, the other female puppy had already been picked up. A couple of months later, we discovered by looking at pictures, they had given us the wrong puppy, the puppy we did not pick and did not want because she was too hyper. How does that happen when there are only two females in the litter. We did not say anything for a while, because we knew that we had to keep this puppy now, because the other one was gone. When I finally sent a letter to Cassandra, the owner letting her know how upset we were, I never heard a word, nothing acknowledging the mistake or an apology even. We just took our dog, who was now 4 in January to the vet, and she has to see a specialist because the vet thinks she has retinol neuropathy. When you pay a breeder that much for the dog, they should make sure you get the dog you picked and do sufficient testing to rule out potentially serious genetic defects. I will never buy another dog from Circle B and I certainly will never recommend them to anyone I know. Horrible!

    We got our precious Sherman from Circle B Ranch Olde English Bulldogges in late August and could…read morenot be happier with both the newest family member, but the experience with Circle B. My wife and I had a solid, long discussion not only about the contract aspects, but this breed in general, things to expect, etc. Was a blessing to hear that when Sherman was born the family at Circle B looked at him and exclaimed "Charger", because he looks so much like his grandpa dog. We have felt completed supported and well communicate with throughout the entire process.

    Dr. Bart de Gols at Canine Evolutions understands dogs. Seriously. He is the total package and…read moreyou will not be disappointed if you bring your pup to him. Coming from the competitive dog sport world, and holding a degree in Cynology (the study of canines or domestic dogs), it seems Bart has been a passionate and lifelong student of the dog. Just google and see for yourself. Rather than "quick fixes", he dives deep to understand first and foremost, your dog. For example, understanding HOW your dog operates is fundamental to building a healthy relationship to him/her so that your dog does things WITH you (and not FOR you). This is the critical foundation which Bart builds upon in shaping the behavior of all the dogs he works with. It just makes sense. Since we brought our German Shepherd pup to him last year, we have watched his remarkable transformation around obedience to now protection work. And it hasn't just been him! I have learned so much through Bart's online resources, lectures, and important discussions. This has been so much fun. In summary, we have discovered in Bart, a rare combination of practical expertise, scientific understanding, and authentic compassion and advocacy for dogs. We cannot recommend him more!

    Cannot rate this guy. For weeks has been promise of return call w info & price via email & phone…read more Sounded like a good fit initial call back but has not delivered on any other communication. Once a week got him on phone & told he would email or call...none of either. Phone won't accept voicemail, no response to text. There are 4 of us who compete in events listed on his website with two of us who have tried to nail him down for training, with being left feeling he has no interest. One has been trying for months. Having to go with somebody else to train with after well over reasonable amount of waiting with no attempt from Bart to return contact. Blows my mind how a trainer can just ignore multiple long term clients who are looking for somebody to train with closer to home. Will look at him again if he surfaces. But we have dogs in need and competitions upcoming and can"r afford to sit and wait to see if he surfaces. One of the group has already been with Scott Haywood w Centrailia Pet Resort, I'm going to sign up tomorrow as he has followed through with getting back, setting prices, and setting concrete schedules.
