About Keystone Kennels

Since 1980 Keystone Kennels has been totally devoted to breeding exceptional AKC German Shorthaired Pointers with emphasis given on temperament, conformation, natural hunting ability, trainability, intelligience and to retrieve on land or in water. Keystone Kennel's owner and breeder, Marie E. Onorevole, is also an experienced trainer and handler who trains her dogs for obedience, AKC Hunt tests and NAVDHA. Keystone Kennels does not sell puppies to agents, brokers or pet shops. Puppies are sold to approved homes only.

The cost of the puppies start at $1,250. The price of the pup helps to cover the cost of the excellent care Keystone Kennels takes in the breeding, weaning and training process. Marie's work begins well before the pups are born. She makes sure both parents receive pre-breeding health checks, receiving regular veterinary care, current vaccinations and testing and treatment for any parasites. Ongoing veterinary care, regular exercise and good nutrition ensure continued health of the parents and subsequently the puppies.

Pups are sold with a written 3 year health guarantee on hips, eyes, heart, elbows and thyroid based on OFA standards. All pups are micro-chipped before leaving the care of Keystone Kennels. Keystone Kennels does not ship their puppies however I may be able to arrange a driver to deliver the pup to you.

Starting at 3-days old, Marie exposes here puppies to the Bio Sensor program. The five benefits of this program are: 1) Improved cardio vascular performance (heart rate), 2) Stronger heart beats, 3) Stronger adrenal glands, 4) More tolerance to stress and 5) Greater resistance to disease. The Bio Sensor program is designed using five exercises to stimulate the neurological system. Each workout involves handling the puppies once each day beginning at the third day of life and lasts until the sixteenth day. It is believed that because this interval of time is a period of rapid neurological growth and development, and therefore is of great importance to the puppy. The workouts require handling pups one at a time while performing a series of five exercises.

Other studies in mice and rats showed that removing them from their nest for three minutes each day during the first five to ten days of life causes body temperatures to fall below normal. This mild form of stress is sufficient to stimulate hormonal, adrenal and pituitary systems. The Bio Sensor program is designed to give the puppy early neurological stimulation in order to give the dog a superior advantage. When tested later as adults, these same animals were better able to withstand stress than littermates who were not exposed to the same early stress exercises. As adults, they responded to stress in "a graded" fashion, while their non-stressed littermates responded in an "all or nothing way." When tested for differences in health and disease, the stressed animals were found to be more resistant to certain forms of cancer and infectious diseases. The Bio Sensor program is in addition to the pups being socialized. The critical times for a pup to be socialized is between four and sixteen weeks of age.
