LL litter temperament test
I’ve never had anyone name one of my pups “Otto” but for some strange reason we now have TWO pups in the LL litter whose call names are “Otto”. At least one is a sable and one is a bicolor so we can easily tell them apart.

The NN litter temperament test results were used for the illustrated police/narcotics temperament test and the illustrated Search & Rescue test pages.

Mr. Blue (Stetson) went to Billings to compete in obedience, rally, nosework and barn hunt and to get Canine Good citizen titles.  His new owner was so impressed that she is now considering herding, too.  Miss White (Hildy) stayed here in Sheridan and is a pet.  Miss Green (Hazel) also stayed here in Sheridan and will be a companion and fishing buddy.  Miss Pink (Scully) went to Seattle where she will be a therapy dog in children’s hospitals and also train for cadaver work (Search & Rescue).  Miss Purple (Ava) went to Wisconsin to compete in obedience and possibly Schutzhund. Ava joins Rudi, from the RR litter
I kept Miss Yellow, who is now “Hopeful.”  She was a breeding prospect until she developed allergies.  She is competing in nosework, and is a therapy dog.  Her registered name is “Celhaus Song of Hope in Hard Times”.  That was inspired by the many, many comments I got from people who said following the litter diary on my website and enjoying their photos had lifted them up during the early, dark days of the pandemic shut-down.  

See Hopeful’s page.

Lando (Celhaus Naboo Pirate) at 7 years 7 months
Lando is an avalanche dog.
“Here are some recent photos of Lando at work and at home.  Put me down for a pup as soon as you have one for me.  Lando has to retire at 10 and I need to start training another one, hopefully as good as he is.”


Lando at 6 years 2 months
“It’s been way too long.  I’m sorry.  I think of you and all the GSDs all the time.  Lando and I put on one of the best C-RAD winter courses at Snowmass last winter.  Proud of our boy!  Even more proud of how great Lando is with Maggie (born 9/12/23).  He found a new hobby.  He lets us know she is awake before she wakes up.  Love from Lando, Jake, Lauren and new edition Maggie Rey!”

Credo (Celhaus Nanawatai Gloriouz Credo of Cantor) at 7 years 7 months
“Happy Fourth of July!”


Credo at 7 years 4 months
“Happy Easter!”

Scully (Celhaus Scully) at 5 years
“Scully is doing great. We celebrated her birthday with some new frisbees, balls and a knuckle bone. She was in heaven.  She’s shaping up to be the perfect big sis to my little one. Attached is a recent pic of her being very patient while my daughter played dress up with her.  Hope all is well! Please give the pups an extra snuggle for me.”

 

Hildy (Celhaus Seraph’s Serenade) at 5 years 2 months
“Aah, the lazy days of summer.”

 

Hazel (Celhaus Scarlett Scout) at 5 years 3 months
“Hazel at Circle Park.  A healthy and happy dog!”


Hazel (Celhaus Scarlett Scout) at 5 years
“Post-five-mile-run for a five-year-old.”

Hazel (Celhaus Scarlett Scout) at 4 years 11 months
“Beautiful day up Tongue River Canyon.”

 

Stetson (Celhaus Six-Shooters Spur N Saddles) at 5 years
Photo 1:  “Photo from our run this afternoon.  11 antelope just flew by from the right to over the horizon.  He took off after them but came back nicely.” 
Photo 2:  “Stetson went to a Lacrosse scrimmage, but the dog park behind us was more interesting.”
Photo 3:  “”Not a great picture but Stetson is helping with the baby chicks.”


Stetson at 4 years 7 months
Photo 1:  “Stetson spent some time chasing rafter rats this afternoon after the photo session.”
Photo 2:  “Stetson and Lizzie waiting for Quinn to quit chasing pigeons.  One would think Stetson would be bald by now. It seems the more he is brushed, the more hair he leaves lying about!  Why this time of year (December)?!?!  I think he’s trying to wear out the vacuum.  I’ve been adding some fish oil to his meal trying to help his coat, and he likes a spoonful of tuna fish packed in oil. Sardines were a favorite until I grabbed the wrong can and it had some spicy flavoring added.  Now he gives them a second look and extra sniff.”

 

Willys (Celhaus Nineteen Forty-One) at 7 years
“Happy Birthday, NN litter!  7 years went fast!  Willys is thrilled to have his sibs back from college for Christmas break.  Play time!  Your pups are all amazing.  Can’t believe it has been over 22 years since we found you. Blessed!”

Pika (Celhaus Lively Pika) at 8 years 5 months
“Attaching some photos of Pika. Things are going well.  She’s still doing great and is incredibly healthy. She’s slowing down a little, but we’re still managing some amazing adventures in Alaska including hiking trips, canoe trips, and plenty of frisbee time!”

Lucien (Celhaus Niall Lucien Stieber) at 6 years
“Thanks, for the birthday wishes, Grandma!  With love and big, sloppy kisses, Lucien.”

Sofie (Celhaus Nightingale’s Song) at 5 years 8 months
“My kids flew me (home) to Sweden for a month-long stay.  Sophie got to stay in a highly-recommended kennel where, I’m told, she enjoyed herself very much.  She got to run and play with a variety of other dogs, ran perimeter checks and generally enjoyed her stay.  After a month, our reunion was, frankly, cataclysmic!! My watch was sure I had fallen, and there was hair everywhere.   In a massive understatement, the kennel owner said she might need some brushing.  I guess!  I really enjoyed my time in Sweden, but I was glad to get home.  The first photo was shortly after we returned home.”
1/11/24:  “I can’t believe that Sophie is 6 years old!  She hasn’t slowed down at all.  She is a mischief-maker and gets a twinkle in her eye when she thinks she’s putting something over!  She has just a little gray on her bottom lip that reminds me of the passage of time.  Other than that, she’s a happy, active dog who I could not love and enjoy more.”

 

Frieda (Celhaus Nagorski) at 6 years 5 months with Max & Gunnar from the TT litter, 3 years 7 months old
“Gunnar (TT), Angus (not one of mine), Frieda (NN) and Max (TT)…the wolf pack!  All doing well.”



Otto D (Celhaus Lancelot Otto) at 8 years
“Thank you for the birthday wishes to the LLs.  Attached is a photo of Otto D.  He’s doing great – amazing as always.”

 

Gus (Celhaus LeBeau Gustavason)
Unfortunately, we lost sweet Gus to cancer.  He is greatly missed.

Hopeful (Celhaus Song of Hope In Hard Times) at 3 years 5 months
Hopeful is competing well in UKC Nosework trials.  She has attained her Novice Interiors, Novice Exteriors and Advanced Containers titles.

Hopeful at 2 years 6 months
Hopeful visiting with a new nursing home resident. He had been reluctant to come out of his room – until he learned the therapy dog was there.  He sat on a bench close to his room’s door and Hopeful, on her own, scooted under the bench so that he could pet her.

 

Bridger (Celhaus Lodestar Bridger) at 5 years

Otto P (Celhaus Lead the Way Otto) at 4 years 9 months
“I’m glad you let me have Otto.  He is a remarkable dog.  He goes to work with me at my office and has a circuit that he runs—the secretaries all buy treats for him.  In fact he goes everywhere with me, including hotels all around the northern states.  He is a good boy.  He is remarkably healthy and resilient.  Still chases rabbits, though, and he knows better. You breed great dogs.  Truly great dogs.  I am grateful that you let me share him.  Best.  Paul”
Photo 1:  “I have never let dogs on the couch.  But I’m now 64 and Otto is excepted from that rule.  No beds, though, although I am wondering if my daughter lets him up when she comes back to town.”
Photo 2:  “Otto with his friend Bridger on Gull Lake, MN.”
            Photo 3:  “Otto, Gretchen, and retriever friend Mable, who visits often.” 
           Photo 4:  “Otto in truck bed with birds.  No, Otto didn’t hunt these birds.  But he did get on one.  Mable did all the rest.  But we did let him try.  And he darned near pulled a pheasant out of the sky when I missed it.”

Axel (Celhaus Nash Axel Geisner) at 3 years 11 months
