Grixal German Shepherds is a family owned and run kennel, always aiming to breed quality dogs. The emphasis is on quality and not quantity. Always trying to do our best to produce what in our opinion is the best for the breed, or in other words, to produce litters which are uniform in looks, size, bite, health and most importantly, temperament. This does not occur by sheer coincidence. Sometimes lady luck plays a major role more than any of us would like to admit. We always try to do our best to our knowledge and leave the rest to nature. Where breeding is concerned the most important issue that we look at, is not to mate dogs just to have a try. We try to combine matings that in our opinion will lead to successful progeny.
Funnily enough when I was still a toddler, I was really scared of dogs. Due to the doctor’s advice, my parents decided to buy a small white toy poodle called “Sandy”, just for me to get used to dogs…and that was it, at least until now twenty years down the time. I have been involved seriously in breeding and showing German shepherds since year 2000 when I bought my first bitch called “Saam” to whom I owe a lot as she has taught me a lot about this fantastic breed.
In 2005, we decided that it was time to give a boost to our breeding and show program. With special thanks to Linda Barclay and Keith Williamson from the Korzwin GSD’s in the UK, we imported a very promising five-month-old male puppy called “Korzwin Schultz”. He turned out to be an excellent example of this breed, being crowned ‘CHAMPION’ at the tender age of two years.
Our german shepherds carry top german and british bloodlines including many
German VA dogs. Our breeding program is based on “Jemness Atlas (1996 – 1999 UK’s top Sire)” owned by Eddie and Joyce Stephenson (Jemness GSD – UK).
From the first litter sired by Schultz, an excellent puppy called “Grixal Athos” was bought by Louis Psaila – Von Alomir GSD. This was the start of the new generation of Grixal as we decided to join forces, initially by importing Champion Korzwin Mystique. Louis’s involvement and handling resulted of great benefit as he and Schultz turned to be a perfect key to success, winning three Best in Shows in just four months during the 2009-2010 show season.
Although we are relatively newcomers to the GSD world, we can proudly say that in the last few years we have been awarded many top honors by famous world judges and breed specialists. Some of the awards include multiple Best in Shows, Reserve Best In Show, Best Puppy in Show All Breeds, Reserve Best Puppy in Show, and numerous group winnings with Best of Breed in Malta.
