| * FREYJA - BO |
 Freyja is our beautiful co-owned girl out of the Piper-Django “Tribute to Shahayla” litter of 2022. Freyja is an athletic, very affectionate girl who loves to ambush you with surprise kisses. She’s the type of dog who loves to explore the outdoors with you while hiking. She loves to chase every type of toy but the typical Kong/tennis balls are her favorite. She is always up for some tug of war or visiting and wresting with her friends. She prefers the company of people to new dogs, and likes her select group of dog friends. Despite being the smallest in her pack of three she is definitely the boss.
 Bo is the handsome dark brown sable from Super Nova Shilohs’ Zam-Tuuka litter. His incredibly strong head and muzzle makes him a striking presence. Bo is an amazing companion with a big personality. He loves car rides, walks, and starting each morning with a full “yard inspection” to make sure everything is in order—or to sniff out who stopped by overnight. Fetch is one of his favorite games, and his super expressive face is almost always showing off a big smile. Bo adores other dogs too and is always ready to make a new friend and play if he gets the chance.
Both of these dogs bring to the table some more rare and unique sources of genetic diversity so this pairing is extremely important for our breed.
We are expecting all plush pups in dark shades of sable from this pairing. This litter will be whelped and raised with our trusted co-owners in Colorado (Denver area) under the mentorship and guidance of Guardian Kennels. All pups will be placed and guaranteed through Guardian Kennels.

| * RIEKA - VALLA |
 Rieka (top left) is our “blast from the past” girl from our Matsu-Chester 2023 litter. Her sire, “Chester” was out of our very first litter here at Guardian Kennels and represents old lines and some of the original (Artus) outcross blood that was used to build the Shiloh Shepherd breed.
Rieka has far exceeded our expectations and has grown into a big girl with a beautiful head and small correct ears with a wide solid body to go with it. Her temperament is exceptional as there seems to be nothing that phases her and she approaches everything with a joyous zest! She has yet to meet a person or animal that she doesn’t consider a friend. She currently trains in agility and in scent work, both of which she seems to really enjoy and excel at.
 Valla is our solid black boy out of one of our Tribute to Shahayla litters (Piper-Django) of 2022. Sired by our late “Django”, he is the spitting image of his father in looks, size and personality! He has grown into a stunning boy with a soulful connection to his owner. Valla brings to the table a beautiful blocky head, flowing movement and exceptional size.
We are expecting all plush coated duals and sables from this pairing as well as the possibility of whites. Expected temperaments will range from more laid back to a few with a little bit more “get up and go”
 This litter will be whelped and raised at Guardian Kennels (Brooks, Alberta) Breeding completed January 2026.

| * FREYA - FINNEGAN |
 Freya is a stunning white plush coated girl out of Guardian's 2022 Matsu/Trooper pairing. With impressive conformation, she is a big solid girl at 28 inches and 97 pounds.
Freya is a ray of sunshine - full of love and always with a smile in her eyes.
She loves splashing through forest puddles and ocean waves, while never straying too far down the path without you. Her excellent temperament shines in her work as a therapy dog (in training), supporting people of all ages, especially youth. Freya adores people, greeting visitors with a song and guiding them to the couch for cuddles. Self assured with a low prey drive, her friends include ducks, cats, and alpacas.
Finnegan is also from one of our “Tribute to Shahayla” litters (Skeena-Atticus) of 2022. Finn has grown into an amazing adult with outstanding structure and presence. His small, triangular correct ears and wide head along with his excellent proportions and outstanding confident temperament make him an ideal match for Freya.
 Everyone that meets Finn describe him as a gentle giant and are amazed at what a sweet and loving dog he is as he quickly charms everyone. Finn has incredible eye contact and has that humanist quality where you feel like he is about to respond back to you at any moment. He is very in tune to feelings and emotions. He is very smart and learns things quickly. If there is a “possible threat” outside he barks a couple of times and then alerts his owners. He has an incredible nose like his dad! He is an excellent hiking buddy and truly is a great companion.
We are looking forward to seeing all of these solid traits match up in the pups from this pairing. We are expecting plush coat puppies in various shades of dual and sable with stable, happy temperaments and show stopping conformation. Breeding expected mid January 2026. This litter will be whelped and raised in Cobble Hill, BC (CANADA) by our trusted co-owners at Seachild Shilohs (www.SeachildShilohs.com) All pups will be placed and guaranteed through Guardian Kennels.

| NOTE: All of the pups from the above litters will be required to complete our health testing (24 hour holter, OFA or PennHip hip/elbow x-rays). Since I generally require that pets not be altered (spayed or neutered) prior to 24 months of age for the health of the dog, I reserve the right to collect semen for shipping or freezing on some of the males in order to further preserve these lines. Preference to breeding homes (or homes that are willing to leave a dog intact or whelp a co-owned litter) in order to move these genetics forward will be given priority. |
