I bought 1 8week old puppy from southernwind kennels and he is the most gorgeous 5 year old dog…read moreever. Then I got him a buddy and she is my girl, so loyal, they are family absolutely. I constantly get questions about where I got them. Vets and other handlers say they've never seen such well behaved shepherds before they are known to have "an aggressive side" but not these breeders dogs. Naturally socializing is important and training to maintain that but the genetics are superb

His reviews were very good, so I felt comfortable sending a deposit. The minute we saw our new puppy playing with his brothers, we knew he was the one. He had a fantastic temperament, and allowed my wife to cradle him in her arms without trying to jump down. He is now 6 months old, and about 45 pounds heavier than when we got him (he loves his puppy food)! I was sad to see that Leah's Lucky Pup Ranch is closed on Google. It's always sad to see an honest breeder close.

Twice in my life I have had two dogs both with injuries to their backs for different reasons. We…read morelive in a rural area and my one elderly dog ran to run after a rabbit she jumped off the porch and didn't clear it she was a small heinz 47 dog that had a long back. She never would have hurt the rabbit just wanted to run with it. She ran aside them before. She didn't clear the porch and her back was broken. I had to make a stretcher to get her to our vet. Our vet was excellent but said she had to be put to sleep. I took her to 3 other well respected vets that said the same thing. Then I was so desperate I called a mobile vet. I never heard of I didn't want to lose this beautiful loving dog. She said the same thing best to put asleep. I said please isn't there something can be done. She told me she doesn't know if it could work but she is hearing acupuncture may do what they can't do. She told me she didn't know of any but maybe I could find one. I did it was a small ride and the doctor there looked at her x rays and treated her gave me two different kinds of medicines and told me to try to keep her still so we put a fluffy comforter down and fenced off a small hall way with pee pee pads. He set an appointment to see her again in a week we bought her for another treatment and in a week after that (2 total weeks) she was standing and getting about a little but it was obviously working. We went for one more acupuncture treatment. Some medicine and Elfie recovered her back had a noticable bend to it but she returned to walking again and eventually running. I thought it was a true miracle. She lived happily walking and running, giving and getting love for another few years. Then a decade later I got a puppy that was 1/2 cane corso and went from a baby to 80 pounds always healthy always agile. Went to bed healthy and when we woke up she couldn't stand she didn't have the use of her 2 back legs. There was no yelping or screaming and it seemed crazy how could this happen. My husband carried her into the car and to the vet's where the vet did an x-ray and found she had bad spondylosis that never until that morning ever even show any visible discomfort to her with walking, running, never limping or anything till that morning where out of the blue she couldn't move her legs. The vet told us we could try surgery that would be at the very least $10,000 and might not work or put her to sleep. I told the vet I didn't want to do either I shared the story of our Elfie and said I'm going to see if that acupuncture vet is still there. We carried her into his office he treated her and using a sling she was able to stand & walk using only her front legs, but wouldn't be able to without the assist. The next week we still used the sling but it was apparent one of her legs resumed some strength. We took her for a few more visits and she no longer needed a sling she was able to walk again on her own. I never believed in acupuncture but now whenever I see a dog who may be put down I try to advise people there is a very good chance of hope I have seen 2 miracles in my lifetime of 2 beautiful dogs that would have had their lives ended by what is considered the best of care. The vet that I owe both my dogs their lives to is Dr. Gerald Johnson of the Silverthorne Animal Clinic located at 14263 Powell Rd, Spring Hill, FL 34609 Their phone # is (352)345-4830. I am so thankful for the wonderful years added to their lives that my dogs received only because of his practice. He has another wonderful woman vet there too and I'm sorry I don't remember her name but she was truly very good & very caring. All I can say is you will get wonderful care there that truly works and in my case literally saved my both dogs lives!
