This is Zaheer Kelev, which mean Vigilant Dog in Hebrew. She is
the most incredible dog ever. She is sweet, loving and very
smart. She is people friendly, and especially loves children. She is
also dog- and cat-friendly.
Zaheer is the easiest dog I have ever had. We brought her home at 8
weeks old. We had her housebroken overnight. I have had four other
shepherds. As much as I loved them and miss them, I have never seen a
dog with Zaheer's sweetness and charm. And none as smart.
I think one of the reasons she never had an accident
in the house is because after the puppies are born the breeder puts
shavings down for them. Before we brought her home we put shavings in
the yard where she is allowed to go. When we brought her home my husband
took her there and boy did he praise her after she did her thing. Then
he took her out every few hours the first night. Each time he praised
her. She loves praise, and so she never had an accident in the house.
She has not chewed on anything she shouldn't, either. I am sure people
think I am exaggerating about how incredible she is because after they
meet her they always say, "you are right. She is pretty incredible."
Zaheer understands English, German, Hebrew and ASL.
She is not a barker, and even when dogs in the neighborhood bark, she
does not. I once saw a dog snap at her and she just backed off. If
another dog snaps or growls, she wants nothing to do with them. At the
same time she lets me know she has my back if necessary.
Zaheer wants to cuddle all the time. She has to be
touching one of us at all times. This very moment as I am on my laptop,
she is laying next to me with her head on my stomach.
Everyone downtown knows Zaheer. She and I leave the house at 7:00 am every
morning. We walk around the neighborhood and then downtown to visit people.
Sadly, my words can not show how remarkable she is. I know everyone says how great their pet is. But I absolutely LOVE everything about Zaheer.
Please feel free to visit her Facebook and Twitter accounts.
