Hi!
I am Nithyanandh. I hail from Boodhimadaipudur, a small village
near Gobichettypalayam in Tamilnadu, South India. I am proud
to be born in a joint family of animal lovers. My forefathers
were agriculturists and animal lovers.
My father, late Mr.PARAMESHWARAMURTHY
completed B.Sc. Agriculture from Annamalai University, is an
avid pet lover.He was the hockey captain of the University.
He nurtured me in sports and pets in my early days.
I was a junior state cricket player for Tamilnadu in the 15
� 22 age group for eight years. |

My mother
Smt. V. Muthulakshmi,
retired Head of the Zoology Department, Vellalar College
for Women in Erode, has a vast knowledge about birds
and animals. This is where from I learnt my basics right.
And ergo, it’s quite natural that I evinced love
for pets. Studious thought further propelled me to widen
my horizon on the behavioural pattern of animals. |

Let
me tell you : I was also breeding fantail
and longtail cocks, turkeys, swans, rabbits, pigeons
and fishes in my farmhouse in Gobichettypalayam.
Back to German Shepherds… I
love German Shepherds ‘cause they are alert, intelligent,
obedient, loyal and courageous. They are known for their
working ability, protective instinct and social behaviour.
German Shepherds were on duty at my home even before
my birth! The German Shepherd progeny, grandson of Kimon
which I acquired in 1994 from Goldwin Kennels Coimbatore,
owned by Shri C. Ramasamy fuelled my passion to throw
my hat into the show ring.

My
Mentor |
|
|
|
The turning
point in my life came when I met a gentleman named Shri
A. Guruprasad, an alumnus of Loyola College in Chennai
- a prominent businessman-sports enthusiast-animal lover,
all rolled into one. His first German Shepherd came
in 1977; and his first German import was Yasso Von Der
Urbecke in 1994. Through that he has bred several top
dogs in India. His South African Seigers- Ferro vom
messbau and Athos von der forstkammer, brought him laurels
in 2004 and 2006 respectively. His dog Ferro Vom Messbau
achieved V-65 in German Seiger Show. He has travelled
far and wide across the globe and gathered experience
and knowledge about the breed. Shri Guruprasad is also
the only Indian to visit German Seiger show every time
since 1996 till date. |

A
Beacon Of Hope |
|
|
|
I owe
my success to Shri Guruprasad for being my friend, philosopher
and guide. Being a beacon of hope I enjoy every bit
of my relationship with him. He taught me the right
techniques in breeding dogs and he is my mentor in this
game. He has since become a part of my extended family. |

Being
Recognized
Of all my imports from Germany Eros
von der Forst Kammer ( line bred Jeck Noricum) gave
me an identity and recognition in my country. Now I
have several imports from Germany from top producing
bloodlines. Our objective is to breed German Shepherd
dogs of show quality with working ability. |
|
|
|
My Kennel
is in Udagamandalam (Ooty) taken care by a professional
kennel manager Mr. Selvaraj
who puts his heart and soul in his job.
|
|
|
|
|
This sport has earned
me numerous good friends within and outside India. My
wish is to be the one among the top breeders of German
Sheperds and gain many more friends….
I also take this opportunity to thank
my mother, Krishnaswamy periyappa, Rajam periyamma,
buddy Jaffer Ashiq Ali and others for their undaunted
support and encouragement. |
|
|
|
Above
all, I personally thank my brother Dr. Pradeep Parameshwar
for his support, love and affection, all these years
and in the years to come… |
