Nadia
    Cherrywood's Not For Sale, aka Nadia, is a home-bred member of
    Cherrywood and co-owned by good friend Susan Grosslight.

    A beautiful combination of her mom, (Kati) and dad, (Ancho) Nadia pulls in the good
    traits from her Hungarian, Italian and Swedish ancestry. Born on July 17, 2005, she is 28 1/2" and
    about 120 lbs.  She is affectionate, loyal, obedient, our best watchdog and has a great sense of
    fun and medium-high energy level. She loves swimming in the pond and playing with Sassy, our
    youngest Leo.

    Nadia is a middle of the pack girl, neither aspiring to the Presidency nor overly submissive, and
    she's simply a joy to live with. Her beautiful head and expression, gorgeous coat and good
    angulation makes her a pleasure to watch both in the show ring and out in the back yard.
         
    Kati, Nadia's dam, is still alive and well and Ancho, who crossed the Rainbow Bridge this past
         year, was diagnosed as "clear" of ILP by post mortem biopsy.

    Nadia was recently bred to LCA, UKC, RH Ch. Bevard's Augustus and their litter is due on March
    10th.

Best "Bred By" LCA Nationals 4/16/07
Thank you Mrs. Forsyth!

    Cherrywood's Quick Study, aka Sassy, is a beautiful blend of
    her parents, LCA CH Cherrywood's Had To Be You, (Sally) and
    Cherrywood's Lion in Winter (Griffon).

    She is our funniest Leo with a great sense of humor, sure of herself, lovable and has turned
    into a beautiful adult. She is 28" tall and around 118lb. I see an awful lot of her grandma "Zider"
    coming through in her looks, temperament and mannerisms, especially when she starts thumping her
    tail on the wall in the middle of the night! Now that is happy!

    Her pedigree pulls in many Leos I've known over the years as well as two of our homebred dogs.
    There is also one I imported from Germany and another I imported from Norway. It
    has been a joy to me to watch different traits belonging to each of them come through
    the generations.

    Sally, Sassy's dam, crossed over the Rainbow Bridge in June of 2008 and was diagnosed "clear" of ILP
    by post mortem biopsy and Griff, Sassy's sire, is alive and well at 7.

    Sassy is confirmed pregnant and the litter is due March 3rd. We are now accepting deposits from
    our approved owners! Please see {Puppy Information Packet) if you have not yet sent in a
    questionnaire.

                                                   The Legacy
    It's wonderful having been a Leonberger breeder for almost 17 years now because
    I've known so many of the dogs in our pedigrees intimately.  I've had the pleasure
    of living with some of them and some I've watched grow up in our owners homes.
    Others I've met in my travels to shows and involvement in the Leonberger
    community.  It's especially gratifying to watch each of our generations become a
    little bit better than the previous one, while watching the traits I love consistently
    come through. That is what breeding is all about - Looking towards the future and
    helping the breed get to where it will be 50 years from now.
Augie
"Best in Show" LCA Nationals 4/3/09   
    Thank you Petra Junehall
    LCA, RH, UKC Ch. Bevard's Augustus aka Augie, is a
    big heart wrapped in a beautiful fur coat and
    wonderful temperament. Augie was certified by
    Delta International as a therapy dog at less than
    one year of age, and was a member of the Akron
    Children's Hospital Doggie Brigade for a year. Now
    he spends most of his time acting as a companion
    for the owners 2 and 4 year old daughters. Augie
    enjoys going to dog shows and on April 3, '09 he was
    awarded Best In Specialty Leonberger at the LCA's
    National Specialty under renowned breeder and
    judge, Petra Junehall. He compliments Nadia's size
    and substance well.

    As Leonbergers have recently become FSS registered and will be admitted to the
    AKC working class group June 30, 2010, we are not at this time eligible for AKC Ch points.
    Sassy has however, in very limited showing, taken Winner's Bitch and Best Opposite Sex .
    Cherrywood's Nobody Does it Better, aka Calvin, is 161 lbs.
    of enjoyment. Born on July 17th 2005, Cal has matured at
    41/2 yrs. of age into a strong, active, substantial, large
    boned boy with a classic Leo temperament. He has a gentle
    demeanor and is a marshmallow inside that big body, yet a
    very vigilant guardian. He compliments Sassy's strong points
    well and we can't wait to see what they will produce.
    Calvin is Nadia's brother and this breeding will be fun for me
    as I've known both Sassy and Calvin for their entire lives.
    Calvin's sire, Ancho was diagnosed "clear" of ILP by post
    mortem biopsy and Kati, his dam is alive and well at almost 7.
    We have recently had one of our owners become
    very ill causing her to possibly have to give up her 2
    1/2 yr. old male Leo. He is a neutered, sweet, funny
    and lovable boy who obeys basic commands, has a
    medium high energy level and needs a job to keep
    his mind and body busy. We are looking for a home
    with a large, fenced yard with enough space for him
    to exercise and an experienced and active owner
    who will become a leader to him and is willing to
    take him through a group obedience class so Macree
    will understand that relationship.
    He does does well with females once he knows
    them, but isn't crazy about other males.
    Serious inquiries from qualified potential owners
    only please. Fill out the questionnaire in our puppy
    info packet and note that you are interested in him.
    I will contact you if/when he becomes available.
