GERMAN SHEPHERDS
 
 

We at SilverMist Kennels strive to maintain quality over quantity.  Though all dogs pictured on this page belong to us, not all of them live on site.  Many of SilverMist Shepherds reside in pet homes, brought back only to continue our legacy of producing generation after generation of classic-style shepherds. 

The Silvermist Boys

SilverMist's Alberta Diesel
OFA HIPS "GOOD" #GS-81378G24M-VPI
 

Diesel is our baby.  He is a Rocco/Alexandria son, and destined to be the next generation of SilverMist's sires.  Diesel is outgoing, incredibly large, very affectionate, and wonderful with children.  He has completed Canine 4H with our oldest son, Jaden, and at the end of their 1st season, Diesel took 2nd in a group of 7 for Obedience, and Jaden took 1st in a group of 6 for Grooming Diesel.  We are so proud of our boys!

We do not breed angulated show dogs!  Silvermist Kennels only breeds & encourages the breeding of working and/or companion dogs.  Please watch the small YouTube video on the show style dog, and you'll understand why we take breeding class, working style dogs so seriously.  We love our dogs, the following video is absolutely heartbreaking to quality German Shepherd Breeders everywhere.

Note the straight-backed appearance of all our breeding stock, when standing perpendicular to the ground. The only time you should see a gentle slope of the rear, is when your shepherd's back legs are extended.

With properly seated OFA certified hip joints, sound structure & movement, and healthy coat that can endure a Canadian winter, our shepherds are built to last!

 

 


The Silvermist Girls
SilverMist's Alexandria
OFA HIPS "GOOD" #GS-77710G27F-PI
OFA ELBOWS "NORMAL" #GS-EL21330F27-PI
 
 
Alex is a large black & red female that is very laid back.  She is good with everybody - much like her parents, Lexie and Legend.  Alex's final evaluations are good, she has a clean, straight back and beautiful fluid motion.  She's so much like her mother!
 
 
SilverMist's Honor
 
OFA HIPS "GOOD" #GS-78943G24F-VPI
OFA ELBOWS "NORMAL" #GS-EL22066F24-VPI
 
 
Honor is Terra's pride and joy.  She is the culmination of many years attempts at producing a black & red over-sized female with lots of bone, classic appearance and distinct SilverMist coloration.  She and Alexandria could pass for twins, although they are a generation apart.  Honor is very easy-going.  Her kind, confident demeanor could melt the heart of any dog lover.  We are planning to take Honor for her CGN testing in the fall, and we'll see where we go from there!
 
 
SilverMist's Hayden Royale
OFA HIPS "GOOD" #GS-80930G30F-VPI
OFA ELBOWS "NORMAL" #GS-EL23372F30-VPI
 
Hayden is a full sister to Honor, from a later Panda/Legend breeding.  At 18 months she is just as thick as Honor, which is amazing as she has boundless energy.  Hayden is a black & tan saddleback with red hilights, just like her sire, Legend.  Each day we see more and more of her sire in her. 
 
 
Vonderbrink's Lynx
Preliminary OFA HIPS "GOOD" APP#1338728
Preliminary OFA ELBOWS "NORMAL" Case# 282/08
 
Lynx is a completely unrelated female from Vonderbrink Shepherds.  Both Lynx' Dam and Sire are Canadian Champions.  Lynx' sire passed away many years ago, therefore Lynx is the result of an artificially inseminated breeding using frozen sperm.  Lynx' Dam is incredibly straight-backed for a show dog, with an amazing temperament and beautiful saddleback appearance. 
 
 
SilverMist's Halo
Preliminary OFA HIPS "GOOD" at 12 months
Preliminary OFA ELBOWS "NORMAL" at 12 months
 
Halo is a light sable pup out of the first time breeding between Echo and Fury.  She is pictured above just under a year.  Halo is a little sweetheart, always looking for cuddles.  As a pup, she is eager to please, and very inquisitive.  She's happy to go for long walks with the family, but still has a playful, puppy attitude, looking for her big chance to pounce on Diesel or Lynx. 
 
The Silvermist Girls
 
SilverMist's Quintessa
Quincy is a Keltie/Fury puppy from our late 2008 litter.  At 21 months, she is an average-sized female shepherd in about the 80 pound range. Quincy is quiet, very playful and loves our kids.  It is our hope that she will attain her CGN and CD titles before entering our breeding program.  With the recent retirement of her Grand Dam, Emma, and her dam, Keltie, Quincy is slated to be their replacement.  Hopefully she'll follow in Emma and Keltie's footprints to become the 3rd generation OFA Excellent females in her line - the hardest status to attain for a German Shepherd.
