Nero Aritar Bastet - available for stud
12.26.2022
(Logan Soví Mlýn x Metaxa Aritar Bastet)

Nero is a powerful, clear-headed working male with an exceptional balance of drive, nerve, and stability.

On the field, he is a true powerhouse—showing strong, full grips, confident pressure, and intensity that carries through obedience and tracking. He is mentally clear, responsive, and purposeful in his work.

In the home, Nero is exactly what you want in a real working dog: a textbook off switch, social with stable neutrality, naturally protective, and dog neutral. He is environmentally solid and handles new situations with confidence.

Structurally, Nero is a large, substantial male with a strong head and striking sable coat, bringing both presence and function. 84 lbs.

🚨 Big things coming for Barrage K9 in 2026! 🚨

I’m excited to finally share that the Barrage K9 website is live!
👉 www.BarrageK9.com

Along with the website launch, I’m also announcing two planned litters for the second half of 2026:

🐾 Zia × Nero
https://www.working-dog.com/breed/Barrage-K9-59942/planning
Nero is owned by Kari Ross - Z Tykev Vino German Shepherds

🐾 Stela x Zarrek
https://www.working-dog.com/breed/Barrage-K9-59943/planning

Both pairings consist of health tested, titled parents who are actively training and continuing to earn titles.

Both pairings are expected to produce well-rounded sport and working prospects, with the potential for a limited number of experienced, active family companions.

✨ Reservations are limited, some have already been placed.
For availability, additional details, or questions, please visit the website or reach out directly.

Official litter announcements will be shared as we get closer.
Thank you all for the continued support — excited for what’s ahead! 💪🐾

Breeding health-tested German Shepherds for loyalty, performance, and to preserve the breed's best qualities.

My sweet Zaco ❤️

He’s been on my mind so much lately. It’s hard to believe we’re almost three months out, and it still hits me the same way. I miss him every day.

A huge thank you to for making this beautiful poster. When I saw the one he made for his girl, I knew right away I needed something like that for Zaco too. It means a lot to have something that captures him, and the last photo taken of us together, in such a beautiful way.

I can’t wait to frame it and create a memorial wall with this in the center, surrounded by his trophies and photos from our favorite memories, our competitions, and the people he loved so much.

Forever my boy. ❤️🐾😇
