COOPER - DOB 5/19/08
(Leah/Acer -ISSR New Zion Shiloh Shepherds)
We are very pleased to introduce you to our ISSR Shiloh Shepherd born on May 19, 2008. We just picked him up on Saturday July 19, 2008. His parents are Leah and Acer of the ISSR New Zion Shiloh Shepherds. This is the kennel that belongs to Tina & Lisa Barber. Tina Barber is the breed founder of these amazing dogs.
His name is Cooper.
Since the day we brought him home we have just been amazed at how smart and sweet he is. He settled right in. We cannot thank Tina enough for picking out the perfect puppy for us. When we first saw the 5 wk pictures of the litter Cooper was the white collar male and he was the one that we had our eyes on right from the beginning.
In the 7 wk pictures he was renamed Silver Collar male and he looked absolutely amazing. We knew that there was a certain order to assigning the puppies and I tried not to get my heart set on him in case he was not available for us. Imagine how happy we were when Tina pulled out the folder for the Silver Collar male and told us that he was her choice for us!!!!! We could not believe it! Thank you Tina for making us so happy and for knowing which pup would be perfect for us.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It has been 15 years since we had a puppy in the house. Our two dogs, Becky and Blue, both passed away earlier this year. They both shared a wonderful 15 years with us and we are so grateful to have had them in our lives. We think that they helped pick Cooper for us.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is Blue. She was a Blue Chow Chow and she shared many wonderful years with us. We want both Becky and Blue to know how much they are missed and how much we treasure the years we spent with them.
--------------------------------------------------
It was quite by accident that we discovered that Shiloh Shepherds existed. About 15 years or so ago we attended the Nassau Coliseum Pet Expo. While walking around the show we spotted the biggest most magnificent shepherd lying calmly and regally at a booth. That was our first introduction to the Shiloh Shepherd. We never forgot the impression this beautiful animal left on us. When debating whether or not to get a new puppy after losing Becky and Blue we immediatly thought -why not see if we can get a Shiloh! It was really the only choice for us. Even after 15 years we remembered.
When researching how to best go about getting our own Shiloh we found Tina Barber and New Zion Shilohs. We almost made a huge mistake when we first contacted one of those 'other' breeders (now known to us as one of the slivers) but something just did not feel right. After making arrangements to go see one of their dogs, we decided to do a little more research and that is when we found Tina, AKA MaShiloh. In a little twist of irony it turns out that it was Tina that we met at the Pet Expo 15 years ago and it was the magnificent Lazarus that we were introduced to that day that left such an impression on us! It has been a match made in heaven. It took us 15 years to get here but it was well worth the wait. We are coming to the end of Cooper's first week home and I am so much in love with him it is unreal.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
June 26, 2008 -Today was Cooper's first visit to the vet just to get acquainted and they made such a fuss over him. Tina will be happy to know that they had heard of the Shiloh Shepherd but no one in the office had ever seen one. They were quite excited and very impressed. Tina, you may have some new customers soon!!!
