As always, Graebelge
Belgians continue to work in co-operation with other like-minded breeders of
Belgian Shepherds, aiming for the improvement of the breed in Australia by
breeding the true Belgian – character, health and type with no compromise. Enquiries welcome. SIMPLY USING THE BEST THAT THE WORLD
HAS TO OFFER!!! Whilst constantly endeavouring
to produce perfection we are realistic enough to allow there is no perfect
dog (except in the eyes of their owners of courseJ).
We spend many hours planning, assessing and deliberating in an effort
to produce the best that is possible with the breeding stock available today.
Whether for showing, breeding, obedience, agility, tracking, herding or
companionship, Graebelge Belgians possess the
attributes required to enable them to excel in their owners chosen pursuit,
to this end we have our Belgians live with us in and around the house not
isolated and locked up in kennels for the majority of their life. Living with, training and working our
Belgians in a variety of venues enables us to truly and objectively assess
their strengths and weaknesses in terms of temperament, type and health as
well as enjoying their company. As a basic breeding requirement all Graebelge dogs are x-rayed and scored for both elbows and
hips, we prefer to wait until our dogs are at least 18mths to ensure that the
results are accurate rather x-raying at a 12mths just to get a good
score. We eye test all our dogs and as
eye tests in Australia are only valid for 12 months, prior to mating, all our
breeding stock is now tested and certified under ACES by qualified ophthalmologists,
as we believe only then can you use the terms, "Free of Inherited Eye
Disease", "Eyes Clear" or "Eyes Normal" with any
validity. We ensure our dogs are fit both mentally and physically before we
will consider using them in our breeding program. We utilise our
extensive experience and knowledge to produce healthy, well tempermented and typical Belgian Shepherds to share your
life. Our breeding girls are whelped in our
home, situated on 40 acres in Gippsland,
comfortably secure in their own surroundings and enjoying all the benefits of
clean country living. All Graebelge puppies, which are born and raised in our home,
are extensively socialised from birth to ensure
they develop into happy, well-adjusted adults. Early neurological stimulation, temperament
testing, exposure to various stimuli too numerous to individually mention,
are all part of our puppies development to maximise
their natural potential and match the right puppy to the most suitable
home. Our primary consideration for
all our dogs is always to provide a forever loving home whether it is one of
our carefully screened homes or with us.
All our pups are registered with Dogs Victoria, vaccinated, microchipped and wormed prior to leaving for their new
homes, and come with a complete information pack and lifetime support. We strongly recommend that you visit
the breeder's premises rather than meet somewhere or at a friend's place, to
ensure that the puppy that you are bringing into your home is brought up in
the best manner possible. It is easy
to write misleading statements on the web or FB so you really need to
research breeders carefully and select the ones that really care about how
their puppies are brought up, you don't want to inadvertently be supporting
immoral and unethical breeders. All details of our health results are freely available on our
webpage, copies available on request. |
