Suki
Super Nova's Super Sweet Suki
Meet Suki- a gentle soul with a heart as big as the mountains she loves to explore. Naturally shy and a little anxious in new situations, Suki takes her time warming up—but once she does, her loyalty is unwavering and her love runs deep.
She’s a gentle companion, especially patient and kind with children, making her a quiet guardian and a tender playmate. But don’t let her gentle side fool you—this girl lives for outdoor adventures.
Suki’s happiest moments are spent on trails, where the worries melt away and her playful side shines. She could hike all day every day dashing down the trail like she owns the forest.
For Suki, ball is life. It’s not just a game—it’s a full-blown mission. The moment she spots that glorious sphere of joy, her eyes light up, ears perk, and she’s locked in like a heat-seeking missile. No matter where it lands—in the grass, under a bush, halfway down a hiking trail—Suki will find it and bring it back with triumphant pride.
After a good hike or a game of fetch, Suki’s favorite place to be is right at your feet—curled up like a fuzzy little foot warmer, completely content just being near you. She doesn’t need to be in your lap or the center of attention; just having you close is enough.
There’s something comforting about the way she settles in, letting out a soft sigh as she rests her head on her paws, keeping quiet watch over her favorite humans. It’s her way of saying, “I’m here, I’m yours, and this is exactly where I belong.”
She’s not the loudest in the room, but she’s got that ride-or-die spirit, a soft spot for belly rubs, and a quirky, lovable personality that sneaks up and steals your heart. With Suki by your side, life’s a little more grounded—and a whole lot more fun.

Suki is an official F2 (second-generation) outcross from the Boeke lineage—part of the ISSA’s official outcross program designed to strengthen the genetic diversity of the Shiloh Shepherd. Her lineage begins with Boeke, a unique “2-for-1” contributor to the ISSA's first outcross: he was the result of the Dutch Wetterhound project and was bred to an exceptional Black Standard Poodle selected for type, temperament, and health.
Suki's precise genetic composition is:
-
75.80% Shiloh Shepherd
-
12.70% Wetterhoun
-
11.50% Standard Poodle
As part of the outcross program, Suki—and eventually her offspring—represent a valuable contribution to the long-term health and resilience of our breed. When paired with a purebred Shiloh Shepherd, her puppies are expected (on average) to be:
-
87.90% Shiloh Shepherd
-
6.35% Wetterhoun
-
5.75% Standard Poodle
These carefully managed contributions help expand and stabilize our gene pool while preserving the core identity of the Shiloh Shepherd.
