A/GR.CH. GIPFEL SILVER SHADOW[A][Z][H]
"Rikki" is one of the few sable shepherds that carries the honour of being a grand champion. He is the product of years of careful breeding and selection and is a large part of what I believe to be the correct type and structure and temperament for this breed.
Rikki continues to be shown sparingly in Veterens Sweepstakes and always makes us proud as he is a true show dog in every sense of the word!
The care and condition of my dogs is paramount to me.
 Occasionally there are puppies available to SELECTED families. ***I reserve the right to select the puppy's new families.***Orders are taken, and placed on my books, as I do not breed for the sake of sales, and I am not a COMMERCIAL BREEDER. The dedicated "puppy families" come back to me time and again for their companions, and I strive to give them a happy, healthy puppy, who will grow to old age with grace and contentment. 
I love the breed and pride myself with continually breeding sound and secure companions and show dogs. I select compatible bloodlines, and do not simply breed with the flavour of the month Show winners.
MY DOGS ARE MY FAMILY..and I do not "kennel" my family..they run free in my secured "home yards", and have free access to the doors of my home.

A/CH:GIPFEL DEVIL'S ADVOCATE[A][H]
"Cato"
Glenawly Jethro Tull[iid.U.K] X Wiesenland Dynasty[A]
"Cato" was my late wife's protector and friend for many years, and a great ambassador for the breed, and features strongly behind all of the current show team.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
With my late wife Dianne [ WIESENLAND ], we bred and owned multiple Breed Champions, Excellent Graded, Obedience and Tracking titled dogs.
My first registered G.S.D's. came into my life from my late wife..two "Sable Ladies""Follie & Misty".Wiesenland Ice Follie [A] C.D. & Wiesenland Ice Fantasy. Kingsmen's Captain Fantastic [Imp.U.K.] X Lyndarra Ice Maiden [A] "Follie" had the boast of a "perfect hip score" 0:0 Previously I had a rescue "sheppie". I had always lived with Gundogs/Hounds during my youth.
Obedience was my first joy, and that went into breeding in 1986, with my first litter being from Wiesenland Dynasty[A] to Britstar Jamacian Rum[A], this litter was bred as a "breeder's litter" under the Wiesenland Prefix. When Dianne and I married in 1989, we both decided that we would keep and maintain our individual Canine Membership and Prefixes, as so much had gone into Dianne's "Wiesenland" bloodlines, and this was a way to develop them further.
Living in the clean air, and in the "shadow" of the Snow Fields, we quietly bred and showed a successful team of dogs, that have been chosen for compatible bloodlines, not just the show records they may have.
You WILL NOT see me at every show around, I believe that variety is the spice of life, and my dogs deserve a break from the Dog Show scene, as do I.
