This
is Kayla. Griffin’s Nest Anastasia “Kayla” is our
first Leo. She is 8 years old. We are fortunate to have such a sweet
girl that exemplifies the Leonberger standard. She has her CGC, and
has placed first twice and second twice in the Novice Female
Category at the NRLC regional shows. Judges comments include: 2003 –
“Very nice movement, balanced puppy, good temperament” 2004 – “Nice
coat, great temperament”, 2005 “Good coat, good color, very good
temperament”, October 2005 – Judge Waltraut Zieher “Very well
proportioned female with good bone structure, an excellent Leo.”
Kayla has produced awesome litters of beautiful "Leolettes". As of
this update Kayla has been retired from breeding, however she does
take great pleasure in being certified as a Delta Society Pet
Therapy Dog. She is so sweet. Everyone loves her. |

This is Max.
Our 8 year old St. Bernard that we rescued from a divorced
couple. Max was a pet store puppy. He was a bit neglected and in need
of proper nutrition, neutering, grooming and training. He fit in right
away and was Kayla’s buddy. They would play endlessly. He just can’t
seem to catch her in their tag games. He watches over Kayla, and loves
to swim and is very attached to Kevin. Max is so happy that he is in
such a loving home.

This is Reuben.
Kloofbear’s Rocky Shores was given to us by Evelyn Odfjell de Rues
because she knew that he would be in a perfect environment to enjoy
a long and happy life. At 6 years old in July of 2010, he’s the
“watchdog” of our bunch. Reuben is a great kisser, gives the best
hugs, and is always smiling and enjoying life. He has a mischievous
side, but his antics always seem to keep us laughing. Reuben is
Lorene’s shadow and very protective of Kayla. Reuben has received
his CGC and is a member of Caring Canines of Southern Vermont and is
also certified as a R.E.A.D. dog and looks forward to working with
children. Reuben has also proudly become a certified Delta Society
Pet Therapy dog |

This is Cisco. Born 5/26/06, litter of 7.
He was our pick from Kayla's first litter. He is the kindest,
most gentle and loveable dog that we have ever owned. He just
loves his Mommy and gets along great with all the other males. He loves the water and is a quick
learner. We love Cisco. He is such a magnificent Leo. He just
received his Championship with the Leonberger Club of America
and has been in 25 AKC shows. He has placed Best of Breed, Best
of Miscellaneous in 24/25 shows, only coming in second to sister
Shiloh once. Cisco is certified as; a Canine Good Citizen, Delta
Society Pet Therapy Dog, Caring Canines of Southern Vermont,
R.E.A.D. dog, Animal Assisted Crisis Team, Leonberger Club of
America Therapy Award 2008. When he visits a facility or works
with the children, you can see the "SMILE" on his face. We are
very proud of his accomplishments and are fortunate he is part
of our life.

This is Paco. He was born on September 12, 2008.
He was one of 4 and a had a very different look in the
litter. A white undercoat is unlike all our other Leos, and
his face is so cute, we are happy he joined our Leo family.
He fits right in and holds his own with the rest of the
crew. He loves the snow and the water, he is a typical Leo,
usually wants to sleep outside on the porch at night. Quick
to learn, tries to please and acts like a "BIG" dog already!
His unique look will certainly make him a very attractive
Leonberger. Check back for updates on the growth of Paco
over time. (check "Our Leos") |
