Bruvic Kennels

ABOUT US :

Hi and welcome to Bruvic Kennels website. We are a small kennel into showing, training and breeding German Shepherd Dogs. We are committed members of the German Shepherd Dog Association of Western Australia, and have for many years served on various Obedience and Show committees within the club. In 1999, Bruce was nominated for the position of President of the Association and was successfully elected. He was re-elected in 2000 and again in 2001.

In March, 2002 Bruce successfully nominated for the position of Treasurer of The German Shepherd Dog Council of Australia - a very busy position which encompasses the whole of Australia's management issues concerning the German Shepherd Dog. Hence, in July, 2002 he handed over the responsibilities of President of Western Australia. In February 2006, Bruce's nomination for the position of President of the German Shepherd Dog Council of Australia was successful, and he was voted in almost unanimously across the country as the New Australian President.

Vicki continues to 'work' for the Breed in Western Australia both as the State Registrar for Breed Survey and as the Hip & Elbow State Registrar (includes Hereditary Diseases portfolio).

IN THE BEGINNING :

Our involvement with this magnificent breed dates back to 1989, when we each bought our first GSD. Like most people, we started off, doing obedience, taking several dogs to Companion Dog Excellent, Agility Dog and Endurance Dog Titles. Then we started to toy with the idea of showing. We began doing the “rounds”, a couple of Australian Nationals, Australian Main Breed Shows, and even a trip to Germany for the Sieger Show, helping to develop our “eye” for a good dog. We tried in vain to buy a foundation bitch at several of the aforementioned shows.

But we found that the good ones are not only hard to breed, but hard to buy!

We persevered and finally began working successfully on our foundations via the following:
