Adele vom Radhaus
View a video of Adele HERE. An adolescent at the time of recording, she's matured physically since then, but her character of gold remains the same. She can be easily handled and maneuvered with our full trust by a child.
Adele is a real babydoll of a German Shepherd, and can be frequently found crossing her front paws like a princess. She's a very sweet girl who tugs at the heart of everyone she meets. She has a nice on/off switch to accommodate down time at home and then activity. She's attentive and endearing, and she's particularly intelligent and learns quickly. This coupled with her innate desire to please makes her a delightful companion. She has learned how to consistently open latched "dog-proof" doors that other dogs haven't been able to figure out. She doesn't cause trouble, though, so it's not a frustration just an impressive feat.
Adele is great with other dogs, she doesn't cause trouble or buck to be in charge in the group. She also doesn't buck to be in charge with people, and can be handled by small children with my full trust to her character. Character is a must with all my dogs who are around children and are bred to produce family dogs, service dogs, and the like, but Adele is an even gentler soul.
Physically, Adele has great proportions, a straight back, strong hocks, tight paws, a broad muzzle and overall visually pleasing facial and body proportions. We selectively imported Adele from Europe when she was an adolescent knowing her family history and character would be excellent. Amongst the world's best, there are many that fit in that category. What made Adele truly a cut above was her strong and correct anatomy in a breed that struggles with exxageration of form resulting in over-angulation, sickle and cow hocks, narrowing, etc. She has more of the classic old-style physique we love--capable and strong, athletic and built to last. When Adele was offered to us, we couldn't pass up such an incredible dog to add to our selective little program. She also hit our other checkpoints--health, superb family, character, and her motherline is known for being good Moms. This is crucial for pups to be raised by a solid mother who is responsible for imprinting. Puppies raised by good mothers are steps ahead as adults.
You can see more of Adele on our instagram @EuroDejaShepherds by watching highlight "Adele". She has also produced pups, which are listed under highlight(s) "Adele Pups" (followed by a number: 1 and on for each litter she has).
Adele's sire is the famed V1 (BSZS - world championship) Reno v Angelius Team who now resides in China. Adele is one of the very few Reno progeny in the USA. To look at Adele's pedigree, it's no wonder her character is the way it is. Fatherline: Reno, son of VA Nero, son of VA1 BSZS Gary... etc. Motherline: direct daughter of world champion Usher, then 2x world champ Willy, and the list goes on.
While quickly recognizable to breeders and showers, these big names in Adele's pedigree do not typically hold the weight that they should to the average layperson. However, the quality of this lineage is delightfully evident to anyone when interacting with Adele or one of her puppies. The entire family tree creates the next generation. The quality only becomes more and more apparent as the puppy grows and develops into what feels like the most beautiful partnership.

From her Embark Panel, Adele also tested DNA CLEAR of ALL the following known to effect German Shepherds:
- Degenerative Myelopathy (DM)
- MDR1 Drug Sensitivity
- Scott Syndrome (a defect in platelet function leading to impaired secondary hemostasis)
- Canine Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency (A disorder of white blood cells)
- Factor VIII Deficiency, Hemophilia A, (Blood clotting disorder)
- Hyperuricosuria and Hyperuricemia or Urolithiasis (Causes kidney and bladder stones composed of urate)
- Sly Syndrome (A type of lysosomal storage disease)
- Achromatopsia (a progressive disorder of the retina)
- Renal Cystadenocarcinoma and Nodular Dermatofibrosis (A multiorgan syndrome)
- X-linked Ectodermal Dysplasia Anhidrotic Ectodermal Dysplasia (a developmental condition)
None of Adele's puppies will have two abnormal genes and therefore be considered “at risk” for any of the above.
