About Appas Sire and Dam
Natus - Sire
Natus was imported into the USA by Moro White Swiss Shepherds. He had an impressive show career and is an FCI Champion in over 10 countries I had the opportunity to meet quite a few of his offspring before meeting him, and I was always impressed by how stable and friendly they are. His offspring have done well both in sports and the show ring. In 2025 at the UKC Western Classic dog show, I got to meet Sydney, the owner of Moro White Swiss Shepherds and Natus. Right from the start Natus was very friendly and at 12 years old all he wanted to do was have you throw his ball. I feel very lucky to have had the opportunity to meet Sydney and Natus after seeing what he consistently produces in his offspring.
Taya - Dam
Taya was bred by Moro White Swiss Shepherds and is owned by Angel Young the owner of Shasta Shepherds in California. She is a beautiful White Swiss Shepherd with an exceptional temperament and a strong connection with people of all ages. She is especially wonderful with children, displaying a gentle, patient, and affectionate nature while remaining confident, social, and well-balanced in all environments. Taya has an impressive love for play and shows very nice ball drive, and her focus can be very intense on her favorite chuck it ball. Along with her outstanding family temperament and striking appearance, she has also proven herself in IGP sport work, earning her BH title as well as her TR1 tracking title and OB1 obedience title. She excelled in obedience and tracking, demonstrating intelligence, focus, trainability, and strong working ability. Taya combines beauty, athleticism, sound nerves, and versatility with the loyal, people-oriented qualities that make the White Swiss Shepherd an exceptional breed.

What to expect out of an Appa x Ori puppy
Puppies from this pairing are expected to be well-balanced overall, with personalities that can vary throughout the litter. Some puppies may take more after their mom, showing a calmer nature, a strong nose, and an excellent ability to settle, making them great candidates for scent work, the show ring, or companion homes. Others may lean more toward their dad, with a bit more interest in playing fetch, medium/high energy, and a nice balance that could suit sport foundations. Many will likely fall somewhere in between, blending good off-switches with versatility. Overall, this pairing is expected to produce stable, thoughtful puppies who enjoy swimming, are easy to live with, and can do well in a variety of homes depending on the individual puppy.
