Brutus and Conagher

Brutus and Conagher live locally, about 45 minutes from us. Brutus was the first Shiloh of the family, joining 2 German Shepherds that already resided there. As I have said many times before, you can not have only one Shiloh. When Conagher was looking for his forever home, Brutus' family stepped forward and were thrilled to add another Shiloh to their doggie family.



Brutus turned one year old on Dec 7, and celebrated with his entire family! Look at the size of this boy at only one year old! And we thought Conagher was big!



Happy Birthday, Brutus!



Two buddies, just hanging out. Brutus really resembles his mama in this picture!

Remembering KodaBear 1/17/07 - 10/28/10



We mourn the loss of our true gentle giant, Brown's KodaBear of BelleGrace. Koda passed suddenly on Oct 28th at the young age of 3. It was discovered there was a tumor at the base of the skull on the cervical spine.
Koda will always be remembered for his gentle loving nature, his kind heart, his giant size of 140+ lbs, and his awesome looks. We join in with his family to mourn this tragic loss.
God Speed, Koda. We will all miss you so much, you truly left your pawprints on our hearts.

Introducing Tucson


Introducing our newest boy here at BelleGrace:
BelleGrace's Mystical Tucson

From north of the border in Canada, arriving in the snow and cold, our new boy is a stunning bi-black/cream plush. We have hoped for a male from this lineage for three years and finally the timing was right. We found we were wishing for much warmer weather and sunshine while driving to pick up this boy. Where best to find that than the beautiful state of Arizona!

Tucson is a Spanish word meaning "black base" a reference to the mostly volcanic mountains on the west side of the city. Our Tucson is mostly black, he has spice, he has attitude, he is a talker (much like a volcano). It just seemed to fit all the way around, hence his name.

Tucson is from Mystical Shilohs Jasper/Gaby litter in Canada.
