Nyrvana German Shepherd Dogs
under recontruction
The Nyrvana strain of German Shepherd Dogs began in 1973 with the aim of breeding the total all round GSD, pleasing on the eye, sound
in mind and body, with the versatility to be a working dog or a highly trainable active companion. My home bred GSDs have had great
success as Police Dogs, Prison Service Dogs, Personal Protection Dogs, Security Industry Dogs, Shepherding Dogs, Competition Dogs
in Obedience, Working Trials, Schutzhund and Agility, Guide Dogs and Service Dogs for the Disabled plus the many who are beloved Family
Companions. Whatever a GSD can do, there is a Nyrvana, somewhere, doing it!
It is no secret that I am a great fan of the longcoated German Shepherd and my longcoated studs such as Nyrvana Hotspur BOB, Nyrvana
Tao, Wolfbain Frankie Fitzhugh Nyrvana, Greenveldt Jago Nyrvana and Nyrvana Moody Blues HOT Sch H 1, can also be found in many pedigrees
where other German Shepherd breeders have had the foresight to use these dogs to gain more than just a long coat in their puppies.
.
As a great dog training enthusiast, working ability is high on my list of priorities and all my dogs have some degree of training
so I know their capabilities. I also train some to a more advanced degree and have personally trained and qualified dogs in Schutzhund
had some success in Competition Obedience and dabbled in Working Trials. I am fortunate to have the assistance of my partner K9Ulf whose
help and professional dog training advice has been invaluable.
