Disko vom Hasenborn, SchH 3, Lbz 1 'a' Disko's happy, exuberant zest for life is contagious, making him a joy to work with both on and off the training field. His offspring here at Hollow Hills have been clones of their sire, with upbeat personalities, high prey drive, good pigmentation and conformation, and willingness to work. We are pleased with his contributions to the breeding program. |

Star vom Hasenborn, SchH 3, Kkl 1 'a', Lbz OFA Even in his retirement and old age, Star was always every visitor's favorite, his winning personality and obvious intelligence personifying the ideal German Shepherd. Once he greeted you in the yard, you were made to feel welcome as he presented you with a stick or ball and invited you to engage in his favorite games. Star's genetic heritage evinced itself in his descendants’ high prey and working drives, remarkable intelligence, good hips, and rich pigmentation. I was often humbled by his nobility, his courage, and the goodness of his soul; there is no way to calculate the lessons learned from this great dog. There will never be another quite like him. |

VA Stano vom Hasenborn, SchH 3, IPO2, KKl 1 Lbz 'a' Sire: V Baru von Haus Yu, SchH 3, Kkl 1 Lbz 'a' Dam: V Verena vom Hasenborn, SchH 1, Kkl 1 'a' Stano has just joined us from an enormously succesful show and stud career in Germany and Belgium. His offspring have established his abilities as a notable producer. We invite you to click on the "Progeny" link to see a sampling of his sons and daughters including BSZS VA-5 Lana v.d. Zenteiche, SchH 3, Kkl 1 'a'. Stano has produced consistent type, temperament, drive, pigment, personality, and is consistent for good hips. A joy to live with, a serious working dog with a soft touch for children, a playful and protective companion ... Stano has enmeshed himself into my life and I'm enormously grateful to Team Hasenborn for allowing him to join me. I look forward to the contributions he will make to my and other breeders' programs.

Orfhlaith vom hohlen Hügel, SchH 2, Kkl 1 'a' One of our youngest stars, is a daughter of V Star vom Hasenborn, SchH 3, Lbz 'a', and out of V Tennsen vom Hasenborn, SchH 1, Kkl 1 'a'. Orfhlaith shows promise as a producer. Her first litter was by a *Hobby Gletschertopf son, and the pups show consistently strong temperaments, rich pigment, excellent secondary sex characteristics, and eye-grabbing type. We hope to breed her on her next heat to VA Wildmarken's Tito, SchH 3, a fine son of World Sieger Ursus von Batu, SchH 3, Lbz 1 'a' and out of V Wildmarkens Häsel SchH1 Kkl 1. Orfhlaith is my favorite walking partner.......she always urges me to go on just one more mile! She's a happy, energetic dog with a zest for life that her pups seem to share. Her early show debut began with a 3-6 month Puppy Siegerin win at the Northeast Regional Conformation Championships, and we hope for similar accomplishments after she finishes her maternal duties. |

She comes from an excellent heritage of Germany's top competitors, her sire being one of the top-producers and show dogs of the recent era. Rich pigmentation, stunning type, and her winning personality combine to set her apart from the crowd.

Possessing impeccable character and work ethic, Velice is a welcome addition to my breeding program.

Waldana vom Hasenborn, SchH 1, Kkl 1 'a' Another young granddaughter of VA Nero vom Hirschel, SchH3 Kkl 1 Lbz 'a' . This dog has the temperament and personality everyone wants to live with. Ready to go work or play whenever you are, yet willing to curl at your feet when you're not, Waldana is an easy to live with, yet dynamic and energetic companion. And as a producer, we are thrilled with her. Waldana has contributed so consistently to the breeding program here at Hollow Hills that I can't overemphasize her value. She gave me the "E," "K," "S," and "W" litters, all of whom were characterized by high intelligence and drive, intense pigment, substantial bone, and breathtaking type. Now Waldana has retired to a terrific home and her kids and grandkids will continue the legacy. |

Hollow Hills' Nimue v Major, OFA Nimue is a bit of an icon here at Hollow Hills. Her conformation and type are so near to the ideal that both German and American Judges love her. She finished her championship quickly and went on in three short months of Best of Breed and Group placements to rank 4th nationally among all GSD's shown that year. But Nimue is not just a physically beautiful dog - she has a zest for life that is infectious, she never met a stranger, she's a natural athlete and possesses plentiful working drive. Nimue's line continues through offspring from her daughter, Synchronicity. Sired by Select Champion Wayside's Honky Tonk Man, OFA, we hope these pups will carry the tradition of this line forward another generation. |

Hollow Hills' Gwydion v Major, CD, TT, AD, OFA Litter brother to Nimue (see above), Gwydion typifies the results of our German/American combination breedings. He possesses the bone, substance, temperament, correct coat and earset, working drive and soundness of his German sire, which combines perfectly with fluid movement, style and beauty from his American dam. Gwydion's correctness of type and structure enabled him to succeed as Champion in the AKC ring and also as the Adult Sieger in the Northeast Region under German judge Lothar Quoll. Gwydion's name means "bright star" in Gaelic, and he has been exactly that for us! He's our housepet and companion, hiking buddy and soccer mascot. He's done everything we've asked of him with panache! |

Hollow Hills' Sierra v Cherpa, OFA Sierra is a daughter of Select Champion Lothario of Heinerburg, CD, ROM, OFA. Her dam is Cherpa's Hollow Hills' Stejan, TT, OFA who is a daughter of Am. CH./Can. Sel. Ch. Cherpa's Fiddler of Woodside, ROM, OFA. Sierra is well on her way to her own ROM status. Her first champion daughter is the outstanding producer, Champion Kaleef's Blondie, ROM, produced while leased to Jim & Sheree Moses and herself the mother of multiple Kaleef champions. A sister to Blondie, Kaleef's Valle, is also an ROM with several champion offspring. Sierra's most recent champion daughter is Champion Hollow Hills' Classic Sunrise. Other progeny have contributed their own accomplishments in obedience, including Hollow Hills' Cynosure, CD, NJ, NAJ, OFA and we hope they accumulate sufficient points to gain their mama the ROM she deserves. Sierra is thirteen, and until just recently she has enjoyed radiant good-health. Though she may not be with us much longer, we look forward to her grandchildren in an eagerly anticipated spring litter from her daughter, Lodestar a.k.a. "Loden", who was bred to Select Champion Welove Du Chien's Rollins, OFA. She had a successful show career with numerous BOB's and some Group Placements. Sierra comes from a line that has been a strong one for producing sound hips, health, temperament, intelligence, athleticism and longevity. Her own pups have thus far been stunningly beautiful, with good drives for working, and have had great preliminary hip X-rays. She's the most wonderful companion to our family. |

"Rake") Dam: Hollow Hills' Gwynedd Shannara, OFA (daughter of Champion Hollow Hills' Gwydion v Major, CD, TT, AD, OFA) "Giddy," as he's known, is the happiest, most easy-going of the gang. Loves to be loved, ready for a walk or a cuddle, big and powerful for such a youngster, we hope he'll grow up to fill his grandpa Gwydion's pawprints. Hollow Hills' Gwydion's Heir, OFA won a MAJOR on his first weekend in the ring, a great start in his quest for Championship. Thanks, Jim! |

Hills' Saga, OFA (excellent) Born: March 2003 Sire: Grand Victor Champion Wayside's Honky Tonk Man, OFA Dam: Hollow Hills' Synchronicity, OFA (daughter of nationally-ranked Champion Hollow Hills' Nimue v Major, OFA) Saga is a delight, sweet and affectionate and easy-going, yet ready when you are for a game of go-till-you-drop fetch. My first home-bred OFA EXCELLENT. We hope she'll be out later this year to work towards a much-deserved championship before entering the whelping box. Saga finished her CHAMPIONSHIP on September 28th with a BOW for her final MAJOR points. Way to go Saga! And way to go Jim and your team of wonderful handlers! Thanks for your good care of my girl while she was with you. |

Elatha vom hohlen Hügel, SchH2, KKl 1 'a', OFA Born: 9/30/03 Sire: 2002 Youth Sieger Quentin Karanberg SchH1 Kkl 1 'a' Dam: V Waldana vom Hasenborn SchH1 Kkl 1 'a' The pictures tell her story better than words can. What a dog. Living with so many fabulous German Shepherds, it seems blasphemous to have a favorite, but this girl is IT. My constant companion almost since birth, she literally would walk away from the food pan as a baby to climb up my leg to get to my face for kisses. She made sure she made an impression, she was staying! Supremely intelligent, almost supernaturally intuitive, and born to do the work with the heart of a lion. |

Big things await her. Pictured at 4 months. |
