Charis (NN Celhaus Johann RAE TC ATD) at 8 years 3 months
Charis enjoys his little sister, Breeze, from the ZZ litter.
“We hosted a playdate yesterday for 2 of my friends & their dogs.  My good friend Sandy has two tiny Shelties. And my friend Brittany brought her big, very sweet Rottie named Ren (short for Renegade) along with two young, long-haired GSDs she has been fostering & training. It was quite a pack with 7 dogs, including my two. It was good for Breeze to learn she is not “queen of everything” as she tends to be with just Charis, who is very tolerant and patient with her.”


Charis at 8 years 2 months
“Charis made lots of people happy today.  We visited the nursing home in Windsor, not far from our home.  It’s a large facility, so we visit one area one week and the other a couple of weeks later.  Even at that we don’t get to see everyone.  I always feel like we receive more than we give.  It’s been that way everywhere we have visited.  God gave me the desire of my heart – my German Shepherds. This is my way of giving back to Him in gratitude.  We also take part in a reading program at a Christian school whenever they want us.  That’s always fun. I miss the airport.  Maybe I can get back there once Breeze is a registered therapy dog.  The way she loves people, she will be in Heaven there.”
