Welcome to our blog!
I hope you will enjoy reading about our dogs and the trials and joys of owning, showing and breeding Rottweilers.
I'm not new to Rottweilers, as I've had the pleasure of owning this breed since 1992. Through the years I've owned many wonderful dogs and have competed in various venues, from conformation to obedience and now herding.
Herding, you say??? Yes, one of the original functions of the Rottweiler was to herd livestock. When I tell people this, their first reaction is usually one of shock and horror! "You mean those big-ol mean dogs don't kill the sheep??", are usually the first words out of their mouth.
Which brings me to my first introduction: meet "Lynyrd" (aka, Multi HIT/RHIT,Group Placing Champion Bernkastel's CallMe Th' Breeze HSAsd,RN,STDsd,HTADIs,CGC).
"Lynyrd" has been a dream come true finishing his AKC Championship at 21 months of age, plus earning a Working Group 2 at the tender age of 7months of age and a Group 4 at 9months of age. He loves the show ring and LOVES to herd and work!
And then there's my "Tori" (aka, AKC pointed Stoneridge Against Th' Wind v Xmark Hic, 2008 Medallion Rottweiler Club Best of Opposite in Futurity, Best Jr Bitch in Futurity).
"Tori" is a challenge. She is very loving, very friendly, loves to show...well, she loves to show a little "too" much! Keeping all four feet on the floor seems to be "challenging" for her, as well as resisting the urge to wiggle and "kiss" the judges!
....And now, there's the "Classic Rock Litter"
I can't begin to describe just how excited I am about this litter. They are almost 4 weeks old now and are really beginning to develop individual personalities. The decision on which one to keep is going to be very tough! All have beautiful heads, color, bone!....Which one will it be?? Stay tuned!
Don't forget to "like" us on Facebook, as that is where I post brief updates and pictures on all of our gang.
