Hi everybody!

Zak is 5 years old now. We are not showing any more and haven't for a few years. Zak never did like being around a lot of strangers, he even hated socializing as a very young dog.  Even though he always minds the "leave it" command and ignores people and other animals while walking on leash, he was VERY protective of his crate and of me while sitting or standing still.
So I made the decision to let him stay home most of the time. He is happiest this way, and he stays more stress free which is better for his Sub-Aortic Stenosis.
I know he's a beautiful Shiloh and I would feel bad if we won at shows that are meant to further our breeding stock. Of course with SAS Zak will never be bred. He will never go under anesthesia for neutering either. It's too dangerous for his heart.
I will upload more pictures soon! He is now starting to hold some weight and looks bigger than ever!
I LOVE this beautiful, wonderful dog that God has placed in my life. He is absolutely my partner of the heart!
