Hi James,
My name is Jennifer. My mom and I came to your house to pick out our puppy from you and Cindy
almost exactly 1 year ago.
I was checking out your site today and was astonished to see how beautiful all your dogs are. I
thought Jax must have gotten all the good looks of the litter but I guess you also breed for beauty!
Everywhere we take him, people come out of the woodwork to compliment us on what a well mannered and
beautiful dog we have. As you may remember, I had never had a dog before and wasn't quite sure what to
do with Jax sometimes but now he is truly one of my kids. He is an irreplaceable member of our family.
My kids, husband and I all love him so much.
On a family weekend getaway, we had left Jax with my mother while we went out of town. I
was almost attacked by a stranger but thankfully someone must have been watching over me and I got out of the
situation without harm. Since then, we have never left the house without Jax. He is a fierce protector of all
our family members and we all feel safer when he is near us. If my husband even pretends to be pushing me around,
Jax clobbers him!
When we get some digital pictures, I will forward them to you. Just
wanted to take a quick minute to say thank you for breeding such wonderful companions.
Many Thanks,
Jennifer & Family

Hi Cindy and James,
Here are a few pics of Jaxon I took last Fri. It seems he gets darker
every day. Sometimes at night you cant see him unless he is running.
I just want to tell you how happy I have been with Jax. Sure we have
had a few puppy moments i.e. shoes ripped up and a few messes but
nothing major. :) Since the first day I took Jax home we have had a
very close bond that gets better every day.
Jax's Play drive is incredible. His favorite games are tug of war
and hide and seek. Jax has a great sense of duty and he is only a
puppy. I have my 77 year old uncle living with me and Jax is always
careful around him. I also have nephews and nieces ranging in ages 13
months to 16 years and Jaxon is great with all of them. Jax has fit
into his pack very well and he always keeps an eye on us even when he
is in a heated match of tug of war.
I have been taking Jax to the local ScHUTZHUND club and we have a
great time. Jaxon gets really fired up when he sees another dog doing
protection work. It is almost like he feels left out but he will just
have to wait until he is older. I have been doing light tracking and
treat training and he loves it. Jax already sits and platz very well.
Jaxon runs at 110% at everything he does whether playing or working.
I just cant put into an email what a great dog he is. I am going to
attempt to get his ScHUTZHUND titles and I know that the only reason
he wouldn't get his III is because I failed him.
I also wanted to say thank you to James and Cindy. Due to their love
of the breed and everything that goes into a great GSD there are 9
other really lucky people out there that have brothers and sister of
Jax. I really like the fact they care more about their dogs and the
puppies then the "business" of breeding. From the first time I contacted
them I knew they were the breeder of choice. I ran into allot of dog
snobs before contacting the Reeds and was relieved at the whole process
of picking Jax. (Actually he picked me). Once again I would like to
say thank you to the Reeds
Sincerely,
Steve Sanders

We were also able to get a NATIONAL title on Madchen with a SG-1
Dear Cindy and Jim
Here is my 11 months with my little girl Mad"chen" as a lot of you know
my husband Mike and I were wanting a German Shepherd pup with DDR lines
so I did some research for about a year and came across True Haus Kennels
followed a couple of litter and decided True Haus was our Kennel to purchase
from. So we watched for Taggart's and Xina's pups and we got my
black and silver male. But to my surprise he was gong to be Mike's so we went
back to our motel and had a talk. Cindy and Jim had just had anothrer litter
from Sankt and Kato. So we purchased my little girl mad"chen" she was to
little to bring home that trip so I had to wait.
Finly she was ready and so was I. We went down to get her and she was way
more than I had exspected so was awsome a little spitfire. She was
about five months old and she decided to eat some rock she had a few
that would not pass through. So took her to doc Joe and he was able to milk
them through thank god. Mad"chen" started her Breed Ring shows at
five months old in the IABCA Shows she walked away with three Firsts and
again one month later the same thing. So by the time she was six months she
had a National Champion title and an International Champion Title. By the
time she was nine months old she has gotten two more National Champion
Titles and one more International champion Title. She has one more National
and two International Titles and she will be finised in the puppy classes
for the IABCAand we will have those by August of 03.
She starts her AKC Shows in March of this year she should go far. She is a
deep red sable with silver high lights. I have never realy told Cindy and Jim
how Thankfull I am for the DDR lines they have brouhgt to the United States.
They are a blessing to me, so Thank You So Much and while
I am thanking those who have helped me I must Thank my Husband Mikel, for
Handling Mad"chen" in the Breed RING and doing an awsome job Thank You.
Will send an up date as soon as I get another chance

Thank you so much for all the help with Onyx. She is very driven, She
works hard Plays hard, and is always on gaurd. Even while shes sleeping her ears are up and tuned in. She is sweet and loving but i wouldnt want to be on the other side of our fence, This dog is aware of everything that is going on. Last sunday we started her on the dog walk and she did great.

Our story of acquiring our German Shepherd from James and Cindi may
start out a little different than most others. We had been talking
about getting a medium to large size dog for a year or so due to a
move to a new home with land and the desire for protection. It
happened to be Father's Day of 2002, I had not gotten my husband
anything for this occasion. I had been researching German Shepherd
dogs, but also knew that picking out a dog was something I wanted him
to be involved in because of the great responsibility (we are not new
to animals as we had two cats and another dog). I picked up the
classifieds and happened across NUMEROUS ads for German Shepherds. I
called a few but was greatly disappointed in their knowledge of the
very pups they were trying to sell!!! Even I, the total beginner knew
what questions to ask. My last call was to Cindi! WHAT A DIFFERENCE!
I could tell she had such a passion for this breed. I told her that
we were not looking for a show dog but rather a loving, family loyal
protector. I am thrilled to say that is what we have in Kikka! She
is a beautiful sable. I believe she looks very much like her mother.
She is very content being the family watch dog and companion. She
listens well but still has that puppy spirit that keeps the children
occupied. You can see in the picture that even my 7 year old
daughter, Alexandra, can easily control her. And my 4 year old son,
Jared, has his opportunities as well. Thank you very much for a
wonderful German Shepherd. Even though she was the runt of the
litter, she turned out to be the champion in our hearts!
