Heidi is one of our favorite females here at Van Den Heuvel, and is an absolute sensation with children of all ages. She is socially open and very appropriate in her approach to them. This clear-headedness and discerning conduct is a bedrock component of her character, making her a truly utilitarian working German Shepherd female that is comfortable enough in all working environments to excel in the work at hand. Heidi is a perfect example of her exceptional pedigree and bloodline. Her work ethic is peerless - she will work all day and then settle beautifully in the house once the work is concluded.

Heidi is a high-temperament sable female. Her progeny are uniformly robust  in structure and boning, with very substantial head type and gorgeous expression.

Van Den Heuvel K9 is very fortunate to have acquired this exceptional working female, and we are grateful to our colleagues in Europe who assisted in making this possible.
