Hi Graham - I noticed pictures of Boris on your website at age 8 weeks. Here he is 4 and a half years later - a beautiful and majestic dog. Not a day goes by without strangers on the common commenting on how beautiful and well behaved he is. You will remember that he was the Alpha dog from his litter and bringing him up was not without challenges - and he can still be a challenge! He is confident, assertive and thanks to a fantastic trainer - Jennifer Dobson - is well behaved and an absolute joy. I will send you another picture where you can see his gorgeous colour.

We are so pleased with Otto, He is full of character & mischeif. He has bought alot of joy to our family, He is a credit to you. The amount of remarks we have had from people saying how hansome he is, how friendly & well behaved. He is doing brilliantly in his training & he is loving his walks. He gets on great with our other dogs, horses & cat! We knew that when we came to view your puppies there was only one left and we did not have a choice in purchasing any of the other puppies but we are so glad that Otto was the only one left! We could not of asked for a better puppy.
Thank-You so much for breeding the dogs you do!
Here are some photo's we have taken - We will keep you updated in Otto's progress.
Best Wishes

Good evening Graham

I have been meaning to be in touch as our Shepherd, Bundaberg Xandra born May 1999, is getting on a bit! We would like her to be around to teach a new puppy the ropes of being a farm and family dog so thought we should get our skates on .
Have had my mind jogged to ring you several times as over the last year I have bumped into about five young shepherds that I singled out and just asked them if they happened to be Bundaberg lines and they all were. I thought this was a great stamp of breeding – not my skill just what I like! - and was so glad that you were still breeding.
Do you have any litters due, or puppies available? We would like a bitch which I know means we may have to wait on some list.
Look forward to meeting you again soon and coming to meet some of your dogs.
Regards
Julie Dinnis
Dear Graham,
Thank you for letting us come and see your wonderful German shepherds and especially for letting us buy beautiful Inka. She really is just what we were looking for. Both Julie and I could not believe our luck at finding such a wonderful German shepherd. Within the first ten minutes of meeting Inka we both knew she was the one for us and we are not impulsive people at all. To be honest, I had prepared myself for spending many months on the phone talking to German shepherd breeders,trawling the internet and travelling around the Country looking at litters before deciding on the right dog to be a part of our family.
Thank you for your hospitality, taking the time with us and giving good advice on caring for Inka. It became obvious to us very quickly that we had found a German shepherd breeder with a genuine passion for the breed and exceptionally high standards in improving the bloodlines, we could see that straight away in your beautiful dogs and this put our minds at rest that we were buying from the right person.
We are really looking forward to collecting Inka next Thursday, in fact Inka has been the only topic of conversation in our house since we got back from seeing her, our boys are very excited and have been asking to buy toys and treats for her. They will be coming with us when we come to collect Inka and we shall be arriving around 2pm.
Regards

Thought I would send you a picture of Merlin (we changed it from Chopper
after too many adverse comments in the first few days) He is a dear little
chap and has settled in with his mates. He learns quickly and is clean
already IF we leave all the doors open. He has met so many people and is a
happy little dog with a lovely temperament.
Janet and Barrie Christie

Thought we would drop you an e-mail to show you what Bo looks like now

Its been almost a year since we got Barney (Bundaberg Eagle!!!) from
you. I thought you may like to see some pictures of how he's grown
since then. He's doing fine and has the best temperament that I could

  
Hi Grahame. I thought you may like a photo of Lily (Bundaberg Disco). It was taken at Paws in the Park when she as 7 months old. I think she is the best shepherd I have owned. A wonderful temperament intelligent and a quick learner. The tanker driver who picks our milk up says he is frightened of dogs but not of Lily. At club one person said they don't like shepherds, but they like Lily. Every one falls in love with her. She appears to have no aggression, She takes everything in her stride, by the way she moves beautifully. A number of people have commented on her movement. I have had a little success at exemption shows. She won best Puppy at Brede. They either love her or hate her,She does not like showing, not enough going on. She has just gained the Bronze Good Citizen at 9 months. 2 Trainer have said she shows potential for obedience. So I am working on that. She has never been worried by the cows. Just walks through them, She did start herding them at the end of the summer.
Hope all is well with you and that the other puppies from her litter are as wonderful as she is Stephanie
(Bundaberg Disco).

Thank you so much for all the help you have given me regarding the new member of our family (Ebby). It was great to come along to meet your dogs and to see how happy they are. I know it was a hard decision letting us have a dog that you had kept for yourself but I promise you she will be much loved, given the correct exercise and of course mentally stimulated. Having spent time with your other dogs and you I am confident that we are now the proud owners of a very intelligent, well tempered dog. And what a beauty!!!
What can I say - my family and I are in love with a 7 month old GSD. Tally (that's her name today!!) has settled in wonderfully. She has met my neighbours' English Setter and played happily, she has growled at the gardener - which he and I are quite happy about because I want her to be cautious of everyone the first time she meets them. She has eaten when fed and even brings in her empty dog bowl afterwards, she has been to the loo outside and although she wonders around collecting shoes and stones and rocks (??) she just takes them to her bed, so as yet nothing has been chewed.
We look forward to meeting up for a walk very soon - and I will keep you updated on her progress.

Just wanted to drop you a quick note to say thank you for your time on Tuesday. I left your house feeling 100% confident about the puppy that I am getting, and was totally reassured by your dedication and love for the breed which came across in abundance. All of your dogs are beautiful, and it was so nice to be able to see the eldest down to the pups. I'll call you in a couple of weeks to set up a time and date for another visit.

Having viewed several litters of G.S.D. Puppies, as soon as we
saw Graham and his litter of pups, and mum, who was friendly, playful
and in wonderful condition (as were all the puppies), a top class
pedigree as well, we knew we were onto a winner.
Sophie won her first show at only 6 months at Horley and district
open, best G.S.D. Puppy. Her success continued on from there. Winning
at Gravesend & medway towns, S.E.S.H., Tunbridge Wells, Five
Ashes, and Best Puppy in show at Herstmonceux.
At Kent county show we were lucky enough to meet Videx
Omar at Devat, Sophie's dad. What a wonderful and lovely dog
he is. You can see why he has two CC.Two top class dogs, and a breeder
like Graham who did everything right, you couldn't fail to have
a wonderful dog like Sophie. She is loving and loyal loves to swim
and thanks to Graham is football mad.

Bundaberg Steffi (Jess) .
She has been part of our family since Dec 2002 and is now spoilt
rotten! She is just like a human, she is so funny, and loyal and
loving! I have attached a photo, as I thought you might like to
see her!

Bundaberg Bellissima aka Sala
Dear Graham and Annette
A belated Happy New Year to you both. So sorry not to be
in touch before but have been waiting until we had some decent photos
to send.
As you can see Sala now accompanies me out riding and loves it.
She has completed bronze, silver and gold training classes and learnt
quickly. We are thoroughly enjoying her. She continues
to have a good tempermant and loves other dogs and people.
Despite continuing in Wimbledon for the time being the Common is
fantastic for walking, training and socialising and she gets lots
of other variety too. It's taught her to cope with runners,
walkers, golfers, horses (already solved with my own life-style).
She listens well and apart from teenage stages aims to please.
What more could one ask.
Hope you are happy with her development thus far. We
certainly are
Very best wishes
Jill and Joe Straughan
Bundaberg Atlas
Hello
Graham. Just thought I'd drop you a line as promised 2 years ago when
I first became
the proud owner of my German Shepherd, 'Bundaberg Atlas' out of
Bundaberg Tamara / Norwulf Kimbo.
His home name is 'Zak'
In the last 2 years he has grown into a fantastic dog weighing
in now at 43.5kgs.
He attends school twice a week, Monday and Friday at obedience
classes and is doing very well.
He has obtained at the Club;
A) Puppy Foundation
B) Bronze and Silver Good Citizen award and is working towards
his Gold.
C) Recieved a plague for 2nd place for most show awards in year
2005
D) In summer 2005 he attended 2 shows;
(1) First Bexley Dog Training Club Companion Show where he got
5th for 'most Handsome dog'
(2) GSD Rally in Dartford where he got;
1ST in Best Teenager 12-24 months
1ST in Best Standard Teenager in show
1ST in Best Head in show.

3RD in Best Condition Standard
I'll let you know what he does in 2006 now he's in with the 'big
boys'!!
He loves nothing more than going into rivers (and puddles) as
well as the sea. He has an excellent temperament and is a very loving
dog, although try telling cats, passing horses or anyone on a bike
!!
Best wishes
