Diesel

Diesel is a wonderfully large, strong dog. He is my guardian and my closest friend. I have had him since he was 6 weeks old and he means the world to me.

He was the reason I decided to breed.

Weighing in at 75kg (165lb) with a 37" chest I am sure you can see why he was the inspiration behind my Affix "GentleBears".

And of course he is the foundation for Gentlebears puppies.

**Please note - Diesel is now enjoying his well earned retirement :-) **

Diesel has passed his Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Bronze Award.

Haemophilia tested clear.

Inbreeding coefficient = 0.2%

Hips : total 20

Colours of pups sired: Black & Gold, Solid Black, Bi-Colour, Gold Sable, Solid White..

Hip scores produced in Diesel's offspring up until his retirement: Higest = total 14 - lowest = total 9.

Diesel 5.5 years old (above)

He is very placid and intelligent, warm and loving and produces consistantly strong puppies with superb temperaments.

I am very proud of him and he is a pleasure to own. The only problem is he is a pain to show as he wont take his eyes off me.. so wont look forward in a stance.. lol. It's nice to be loved :o)

As you can see from the few snaps below Diesel is a very substantial dog.
