As
stated in the welcome page, WhiteFang ISSR Shilohs is located east
of Leesburg in the Lansdowne subdivision of fast growing I
named my kennel WhiteFang after one of my favorite childhood
books, White Fang, by Jack London. The book tells the story of
a half dog-half wolf named White Fang and his experiences in
the wilderness of the My family consists of my husband Wayne, our daughter Monica and our Shilohs Orion and Kuma. Although my husband and daughter love Orion, and help take care of him, they’re not interested in my passion for breeding, showing and competition trials. They tell me, this is my hobby. LOL As
many before me, I first became interested in the Shiloh Shepherds

decided to investigate. There! At last! The dog I was looking

avidly reading stories about these amazing dogs, and read every
article I could find on the breed.

order to select which litter my dog would come from, and to join
her Licensed Breeders in training program. In May 2002,
I chose a kennel name, signed the ISSR Breeder’s Code of
Ethics, and the ISSR Licensed Breeders Agreement. I also
joined the
I currently have one male pet Shiloh, Orion and on intact male, Kuma, who will help establish my stud program. |
