I have been training, showing and breeding Irish Wolfhounds both in breed and obedience for nearly 20 years. My youngest daughter, for various reasons, became interested in purchasing a dog with which to do more than level one obedience. She decided upon a German Shepherd. After some searching we found Andreas and Linda. We consistently got prompt amiable attention and made a trip (quite a trip) to visit the dogs.… continue reading

Karen & Bob Kline

Andreas. As we near our wonderful rottie’s first birthday, we cannot help but to reflect on the miles of enjoyment we have experienced with Jaegger. His temperament and loyalty are unmatched. He has proven to be a perfect match for our family. Bob did a lot of research on rottweilers and quickly knew he wanted a German rottie. Since he worked for a German company, he had some references for… continue reading

Grooming services at Camino Verde Pet Resort

I would like to recommend the grooming services at Camino Verde Pet Resort in strongest possible terms. Angelika’s service and expertise go “way beyond” simply grooming, although the grooming is outstanding. Her advice on the proper maintenance of our German Shepherd’s coat and skin between grooming visits has reduced Toby’s itching, scratching and shedding by a substantial margin. In addition to her professional competence, Angelika has always been pleasant and… continue reading

Fetching style Runs close Loose eye Shows no wearing Force barks Demonstrated a controlled stop or pause Circled stock Change… continue reading

Narcotic Detection

I want to add my testimonial to the ones on this page. I came to Andreas Mueller seeking training for me as a handler and refresher training for my previously trained narcotic detection dog, Dargo. I had never done handler work, and Dargo had been doing therapy work with hospital patients but not drug work for the last year. We spent five days at Zauberberg training with Andreas and also… continue reading

At the age of twelve months Linden purchased Iris vom Zauberberg as a service dog prospect. Iris was obedience trained at that time. Linden, we like how you stay in touch with us about Iris’ developements. Linden wrote: An update on how Iris is getting along. I’ve starting back to work part time and Iris went with me today in her red Service Dog in Training (SDiT) vest. She was… continue reading

John Kelly and Nevin vom Zauberberg

I would like to attest the fulfilling and positive experience I had in choosing a Zauberberg GSD. My neighborhood is not the safest, I was contemplating getting a gun for home protection when a friend of mine suggested “Just get a dog. A dog is more versatile then a gun!” He was right. So, I began my research. Having owned a German Shepherd when I was younger, I was inclined… continue reading
