Vito, Windsong-Sleeper's Vito, is from the Bismarck/Savvi litter born January 25, 2008. Vito, who was "Pink Boy" in his litter, comes to Eva through Wendy Fullerton of Windsong/Raid the Wind who co-bred the litter with Evadne Deeds of Sleeper Shilohs, both in VA. Vito's sire Bismarck is an ISSDC NE Shiloh Shepherd, who calls Stardust Shilohs in PA home.
Vito attends obedience class weekly and is working toward his CGC. Eva says "he is definitely top in his obedience class as he is so darn smart but also just the sweetest pup ever." In that vein Vito also goes to Puppy Daycare once a week where he is the gentle giant as he is so gentle with all of the smaller dogs. "He just loves all people and animals," Eva continues.
Vito has also started on his journey into animal assisted activities at his tender age. "We've had one visit to the nursing home with myself and the trainer, and did very well. I hope to bring him back soon and get him into therapy work," shares Eva.
Good job and welcome Vito!
