I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW HOW MUCH I ADORE THIS DOG. WE HAVE COME A VERY LONG WAY TOGETHER. HE
IS SWEET, SENSITIVE, PROTECTIVE W/O BEING AGGRESSIVE, HANDSOME AS EVER, AND COSTS ME A TEMENDOUS AMOUNT OF MONEY!!! I'M
ONLY BRINGING THE $ UP TO LET YOU THAT EVERYTIME I HAVE TAKEN HIM TO THE DOCTOR'S FOR AN EMERGENCY VISIT, HE
IS ALWAYS 100% HEALTHY. WE, THE DOCTOR AND I, HAVE ASSESSED THAT HE IS ALL FEELINGS. IF I AM DEPRESSED,
HE IS DEPRESSED. IF I AM SAD, HE IS SAD.... HE KILLS ME.... HONESTLY, I NEVER GET A BAD REPORT

Hi Lorie: Just wanted to check in and say hi, and let you know what the Vet. had to
say about Odie We are thinking about getting another GSD in the near future, and asked the Vet. if she knew of any GSD rescues
in the area to which she told us we didn't want to go that route, she also told us that getting a puppy was better, but
before we do to make sure that we know the parents as we were so lucky to get such a great puppy as we did with Odie.
We continue everyday to get compliments from other GSD owners both current and former we can't go a day without someone
telling us how beautiful she is, and what a great temperament she has. With all this input from everybody we again
want to say thank you for such a great pup, and when we do decide it's time to get a second puppy we will be sure to get one
from you. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Pam, Ron Revere, Ma.
Hi Lorie... Just wanted to say hello and also comment
on your website. Dan and I saw the new pics on there in the Scrapbook section. You really do an awesome job on
your website! Thank you for that and sharing all the updates and pictures of the other pups. I look forward to
seeing new pics all the time! Lissa Rochester,N.H.
Thank you so very much, i dont know if i told you the day i picked up
terra i had a call from a guy that had a litter of shepherd 's and his
were 500.00 no papers i said nope and by talking to him i was not
impressed with him or his litter,
by talking with you,( and i am a pretty good judge of people ) that you
care who gets a pup and the way you have your web site and showing your
buyers and their pups you were the better and best-est breeder , we were
cocker breeders for quite some time and my wife was before i met her and
she even agrees with what i have just said and showed her on your
site,so YOU WIN THE GOLD MEDAL WITH US.Thank you Stephan
I recently had the opportunity to work with D&L'S and
one of their german shepherds, Lorie's Louise in the filming of a
Television Commercial for one of my client's which will be airing on or about January 7th. 2008. The
spot specifically
called for a
German Shepherd. Everyone performed admirably on-camera,
with little direction. D&L'S Lorie's Louise was very well behaved and
manageable for what was a long day of shooting in surroundings
unfamiliar to her. Ken and Lorie listened to our needs and chose
one of their dogs who was best suited for what we needed in temperament
and personality. I consider myself fortunate to have found these
breeders and am looking forward to perhaps incorporating a litter of
pups into another commercial sometime.

I just wanted to give you an
update on Greta. She is doing great! She is so smart. She already sits, lays, shakes and scratches at the
door to go out! The vet is very impressed at her and how great her ears stand so straight and strong!
She is such a little sweet heart.
I hate going to work every day because I miss her so much the second I walk out the door.
But, she’s lucky because
she gets to hang out with her daddy all day, and work around the house.
Thank You,
Angela D. McAllis
Hi Lorie, all is well here in NJ Willow is getting so
big . we have been taking her on lots of adventures , she loves going to the water falls there is always something new for
her to explore and climb .I'll send some new photos of willow on her expedition.
I wanted to thank you so much for the
beautiful calendar .I cant imagine what time and effort went into doing that for all of us, not to mention
the cost,, you didn't have to do that , but im sooo glad you did . its wonderful ! Everyone that sees it thinks its beautiful
and its perfect for showing everyone who willows siblings and 1/2 siblings are . they get to see her whole family and where
they live . its like a family album . I absolutely love it . and im sure all the other pup owners will love it as well.
that was so nice of you , again thanks so much .
Luv and puppy kisses from willow, shannon, and neil

Hi Lorie,
Just wanted to update you on maggie. last weekend she weighed 23 pounds, and i suspect
that she's over 27 pounds or more right now. She is a little block of muscle, and extremely strong!
She has known the verbal and hand commands for sit, stay, down, and shake since she was 8-9 weeks
old. She is crate trained, leash trained, rides in the car very well, sleeps through the night, and has been house trained
for weeks. She's very intelligent, and one of the most impressively smart puppies that I have owned and seen.
Everyone that actually knows dogs and shepherds, is very impressed with her intelligence, and can't believe she knows these
things at such a young age.
She has so much energy that we have increased our walking distance to a one mile walk in the
morning and a one mile walk in the evening. She does very well walking on the leash, and loves checking out all the
mailboxes, fire hydrants, sticks, and etc. on the side of the road.
Two of the most defining moments so far, that have made me so happy is her "shepherd like
instincts". The other day she noticed something out of place, and actually gave a couple low "woofs" as she
became very business-like. I praised her for warning me, and she was soooo proud of herself. I could tell as she
proudly pranced around me with her bone in her mouth! I have a feeling she will be a great guard dog, while still being
great with family, friends, and kids. She loves everyone.
Secondly, she loves to track katie and i. we play hide-n-seek with her, and tell her to
"find katie" or "find adam". I have never seen a puppy get so serious, and stick to her job of tracking us down, without
being sidetracked at all! She gets down to business and doesn't stop until she finds us. Amazing!
We have switched her food over to Nutro Ultra Large Breed Puppy. I wanted to get her on
a food with no fillers, or preservatives so we could keep her meals as natural as possible.
I have great plans of getting maggie into the sport of schutzhund. Her natural tracking
ability, loyalty, and seriousness when a job is given to her, will make her a great candidate.
Feel free to use this email for your testimonials page. I will send you up-to-date pictures
of maggie soon.
We'll be in touch,
Adam, Katie, and Maggie
.
Kato has gone to the vet.He weighs 21lbs.My vet is pretty sure he'll get to 30lbs.before he see him again!
We've been working very hard on the crate training. He will now sleep in the crate from 11:30pm-7:00am....right through
the night. Michael has leash trained him so now we go for short walks. He is also going up and down stairs now. He loves the
outside and the snow. It was snowing a bit this morning and he was trying to catch the flakes as they were
coming down. He did well in the car - we're going to start taking him for rides now. I think next month we are going to bring
him to a puppy play group, that should be lots of fun!
Thank you so much for this Wonderful puppy. We love him VERY much.

My baby Lilyanna is the best puppy ever. After waiting 13 1/2 LONG years to replace my beloved German Shepherd
Beckett, I know I made the right choice in choosing Lilyanna and D&L's German Shepherds! She is so smart.
She already sits on command, was totally house trained as far as "pooping" goes in one week and is about 70% "pee"
housebroken. She loves everyone and I take her eveywhere. Thanks for my beautiful baby girl. Your commitment
to quality dogs and conscientious breeding is evident in Lilyanna. Thank you Again Shirley Melancon

Hi Lorie, Pavlov is doing so great! we went to the vet on the 19th and he
weighed 22.8 pds!
The vet says he will be very big. I swear he gains a
pound a day! His legs are getting looong, and one ear stays
up (most
of the time) His feet are HUGE! He has been going outside alot, he has only a few
accidents
a day. He Hates the cold tho, when its really cold out all
he wants is back inside! He'll pee real quick then run
to the door and
sit and wait for me, or he will just sit at my feet and stare up at
me. He LOVES the snow,
he will bury his head in it and run. Or I will
kick snow at him and he will leap up and try to bite it. He is great
on the leash, I would have liked to keep him off one but he ran
towards the road so I want to wait until
he listens a little better
before i take him off it. But he does really good he always follows
me
and never lets me out of sight when were outside. Even in the house
he wants me in his sight at all times, or he
cries. actually he wants
to be right by my side.
He seems fearless (of noises and things) and approaches them
with his
chest out eyes alert and ears foward. Bear is still in love with
him, plays with him alot.
actually Pavlov is giving Bear alot of
exercise, which he needs as Bear is overwieght. They have alot of fun
together. Nikita still dosent care for him, so he just ignores her
now. He really wants to play with the cat,
but she dosent want any
part of him!
He knows how to sit, and give paw. He dosent like to play fetch tho,
his favorite game is tug of war. I hope he grows into playin with the
ball! I cant wait till the weather is
better, then he will probly
enjoy it more.
Thank You For a wonderful puppy dog! I love him and he is such a sweetie
Take
Care

Just wanted to write and say Hello!
Stella is doing fabulous…she is still growing I think she is about 70 pounds now. What a great dog, we love her
so much. Her latest trick is she has learned the command ‘back up’ It is so funny to see her do! Its
great to still be teaching her new tricks. Hope all is well with you and all the doggies at D & L..... Sarah

Hey Guys, Here are two pictures of Faye from when she was around
3 months old. I have more recent pictures that I'll send soon..She is already fifty pounds!! And so beautiful-her coloring
is so dark,I love it! She has the strongest personality and so much love to give.She probably gets more attention than most
children do given that I am always fawning over her and so are my boyfriend,roommates,my neighbors,my neighbors dog and all
the puppies at the dog park....Thanks for bringing the most Beautiful,Affectionate,Brilliant baby into my life!! I cant imagine
what I did with myself before having her...... Alle Somerville,Ma
Hello lorie, ken, kids, and k-9s
just wanted to let you know Willow competed in
her first AKC fun match show this weekend. she had a great time. we went to socialize and have
fun. Willow was such a good girl i was afraid she would be to excited with all the other dogs but she was pretty calm ,she
played nice and made lots of friends,her new best buddy is a belgian terveran named fallow and he was born the same day as
Willow. Despite the pouring rain and both of our lack of experience our little lady came home with 2
First place ribbons for Best Bitch Puppy and Won Best of breed in 3-6 month
puppy class as well as 4th in the herding group and a very
proud mommy.
We are going to start handling classes with some
friends in a couple of weeks so the next time we will both know what to do in the ring and she can add to her collection of
pretty ribbons. Just wait till we get to visit you guys you won't believe her scrapbook its growing almost as fast as
she is ......
I had a feeling.
He is wonderful!!! Huge
like his father! He is the sweetest dog I have ever had. We just learned the colors. I throw a green, red,
blue and yellow ball all at once - I tell him a color and he brings it!! He is the best.
I have next week off, so I will
try to send the pictures again when I have some free time. Your new granddaughters are beautiful. I wish I lived
on a farm so I could buy another one. I do feel bad that he doesn't have a lot of room to run!! I try to take
him out as much as I can, but the weather isn't very helpful. He cries every time I come home from work! Oh -
I forgot to tell you - When I ask him for "hugs" the moose actually jumps up with his paws on my shoulders and puts his face
right next to mine!!
Can ya stand it. I didn't
buy a Shepherd, I bought a HAM!! Lorie - I just love this dog. I have turned into one of those people who never
shuts up about their pets!!! Sarah E.Boston Ma.
