The Girls

 

We are now no longer part of the Kennel Club Accredited Breeder Scheme. We removed ourselves from their listings. We were disappointed that at no point, not one person from the Kennel Club either contacted us by phone or came to view the conditions in which we look after our dogs.

 

Our cheque was cashed within 2 weeks and our Certificate of being an Accredited Breeder was issued?

Not much of a standard really!!!

You may still however find more information about the scheme can be found HERE.

Great granddaughter of Layla & Tiger & Weller & Sky

Mother to GiGi, Half sister to both Noor & Margo

 

An absolute diamond of a youngster. Calm, happy, kind. Very much like her mum x

Always from a pup she has been no trouble, Queenie is kind and affectionate.

She is a huge girl even at of 12 months, she was very tall, long and rangy.

Queenie is a very good mix of her mum and dad (Minx & Chillie).

 

Queenie was named perfectly, she is regal, kind, calm, authoritative and majestic.

A truly wonderful nature and great mother to her pups.

Queenie is fabulous externally when out on walks, with great lead control and acceptance of her environment. She is a firm favourite with the staff, she is playful and happy and keen to keep her buddy Margo in line. I have never experienced a dog birth as she does, very calm, super chilled, no stress, very little effort, it simply happens, and that is how Queenie roles in her life in general

Ava is 4th generation GVW

Daughter of Grace & Chillie

Granddaughter of Kenya & Ryder

Great granddaughter of Tiger & Layla

Mother to Boy from Stone 

 

Ava is a gorgeous silver sable girl, great out with our terriers and youngsters.

 

One of 2 sisters, Ava and Munroe. Calm, kind, gracious a truly beautiful dark silver sable girl.

Very, very happy and easy to please. Ava is being raised by her mother, both a little bossy around food, but very manageable. I think Ava will fit in just nicely here, she is alert and loves playing out with her young sister, which shows me she has a great nature.

 

Roll forward a few years……

 

She is already nicely settled into her semi-retirement home and lives in the same village living with one of our retired boys Cooper and her new family, Neil & Liz, whom I thank with all of my heart for giving Ava such a wonderful loving home.

Amazing in her nature and her elegance.

Ava is without a doubt one of our best girls and we are very proud to be able to not only show but authenticate such an impressive line of nature and beauty leading all the way to this little lady.

Fantastic on the lead and super chilled in the house environment.

Ava has made the very best of mums, and hopefully will have her last litter with us before she well and truly hangs up her pregnancy boots!

Ava will now fully retire.

Boy


Splash is the grandmother of our youngster Ingo, who she loves to play with.  

She came over to us early 2024 and found a firm friend in Boy pretty much straight away. As her name suggests, water is her true pleasure, which was just as well as she landed in England during one of our wettest spells on records, so took full advantage of flooded fields, chasing through them with great delight.

 

Splash is a happy girl, a little cautious at times, but very giving, very gentle and happy.

 

She is a beautiful girl physically with that power blue, white and very light tan Panda marked coat, a real beauty in so many ways.

 

It’s always a challenge for an older dog to come into our lifestyle. Splash is very loving, and I would like to see her in a wonderful pet home sooner rather than later.

 

Splash has been an excellent mother and is happy to show her youngsters the fields, garden, menage and enjoy chilled time with them.

 

Splash will have her final litter with us in the Summer of 2025.

Noor, an unusual name coming from the Islamic word ‘beauty’ and Noor is certainly that, simply ‘beautiful’.


A black/bi/seal coat all we could debate on I’m sure. Sleek and short coated, with great confirmation, alertness, kindness, and an eagerness to please, as do all dogs from Stone’s lines.

 

Noor has been in her pet home on a semi-retirement basis and will come back to us for her 2nd and last litter. Here is her owners comments

 

"We welcomed the beautiful Noor into our home earlier this year, and we couldn't imagine life without her. Noor is simply, the most perfect dog. She has settled into our home with her uncle Rocky effortlessly. She has a brilliant temperament, she is obedient, excellent on lead and gentle around guests in our home. Our two children (aged 4 and 2), love her dearly and she has so much patience around them. Noor has a wonderful nature, and we couldn't ask for anymore from a dog."

Making Iris 5th generation GVW GSD

Iris is a beautiful young lady with piercing eyes. She is much loved by our staff and visitors due to her playful yet kind nature. Iris has proven herself to be a good mum using her fair temperament to raise her puppies.


Iris is now in her semi-retirement home and will come back to us for her 2nd litter which will be her last, here’s some of her new owners feedback:


Iris is settling in really really well!  
There's a great facility nearby that rents a private dog walking 3
acre field. It's been a great way for her to get to know us and have a 
good run and play especially while in heat, all secure and totally private. 


She's eating and sleeping well, lots of exploring and sniffing, bee
hunting and helping in the garden! Today she met our dog loving 78 year old neighbour who is already in love with Iris and demanding an 8x10inch photo to add to her wall next to her framed photos of Hershey & Issy!
More updates to follow!  
Thank you! 
Gina & Tim

Hi Andrea! 
Just sending an Iris update.
Things we found out about the lovely Iris this week. 
She likes ice cubes, socks, long walks, rivers and ponds. She seems to be fine with cows, the pub and the coffee shop; appreciates a good pillow, an afternoon nap, a good long fuss and a brushing. She's settling in just fine! She seems to like all the things we do!! Perfect! 
Oh, Andrea. She's just wonderful!

GiGi is the Daughter of Queenie & Quattro

Granddaughter of Minx & Chillie.

Great granddaughter of Roma & Vito.

 

GiGi is the sweetest, kindest girl, as long as there’s no food around.

She is playful and carefree and loves a good snuggle.

 

She is definitely a calm, happy girl and has been fantastic in raising Gloria, her half sister, who is also a Quattro daughter.

 

GiGi, enjoys her walks on and off the farm and is a delight in all aspects of her personality.

 

As always with any off-spring of Minx, just a beautiful girl

Vivienne, named after Ms Westwood certainly lives up to her name with total sleek, individuality, elegance and a true ‘dare’ to be herself.

 

Vivienne is bright as a button and with her calm, kind nature she is a firm favourite with everyone on the farm.

 

A dark sable short coat with the prettiest of eyes, a real gorgeous soul this one.

 

Very much looking forward to finding her the right pairing to really bring out the very best in the lines that she carries.

 

As always being one of Stone’s granddaughters, you simply cannot go wrong in having a dog like Vivienne in your life.

Aida boasts the best hips we have ever seen here at GVW, being 0/2.

 

A perfect little package of beauty and drive.

Aida, is a busy little lady who aims to please, loves a good fuss and is super responsive.

 

Slightly bossy but happy to play out with other dogs, as long as she is in charge.

 

A beautifully glossy long coat sable. Aida has proven to be a fabulous mum.

 

We will look to find Aida a semi-retirement home that can offer her all that she deserves.

 

Aida is perfectly clean in the house and is very partial to a good sofa!

Margo is simply gorgeous, a lovely silver sable long coated girl, with the prettiest of everything really.

 

Margo is very youthful in her manner, she is playful, carefree and happy to just fly around the fields chasing whatever and whoever there is to find fun with.

 

A fantastic specimen of a silver sable long coat GSD, Minx really did make some beautiful pups that I know many of us are very grateful for.

 

Margo will hopefully produce some equally wonderful pups in time, but in the meantime, she will continue her merry way in life

Daughter of Captain & Raine

Granddaughter to Stone & Rosie, Ryder & Taylor from Gentlebears
Great Granddaughter to Weller & Sky, Vito & Roma, Joy is 4th generation GVW GSD


Joy is a happy, clever, and a playful girl with a great temperament. She loves to play with other dogs and our staff. She is always the first dog awake in the morning and is always ready to go out for walks and hikes. Joy is the perfect German Shepherd. As Joy has matured, she has become powerful, loyal and still a little cheeky!! She is of super solid construction and a chip off of the old block in terms of her width.


An amazing fusion of pedigrees places Joy very clearly amongst our finest GSD’s here at GVW. Joy has made a great mother and is happy to play with our youngsters.

Joy loves cheese!!!

 Boy

Fantasia, originally born in the Netherlands and then transported over to America and finally here to GVW GSD’s in England, she has become a wonderful addition here at the farm, with the other dogs and as part of our breeding programme.

Fanta, as we now call her, is sleek and elegant with controlled drive and passion for the ball. She speaks and gets super excited but all within control and simply happy to play and really loves a fuss and cuddles.

Fanta is a keen favourite to play out with our Day Creche clients too, showing them the ropes, having a blast and just loving life.

A very capable climber as we found out on her arrival, a 6-foot fence is no problem at all!!! But simply to find you and see what’s happening.

It’s always a challenge for an older dog to come into our lifestyle, but Fanta has embraced life here and we are very pleased to have her in our lives.

Her pups with boy have beyond exceptional, calm, responsive, alert & beautiful from 5 weeks of age. We chose to keep Rose, who is being raised really well by her mother.
