May is coming to a close but not before my owners have just a few more things to say about what they are doing out there. Here is the lastest from one of the Pups from the J-litter (Bea X Djuke). Grandma Kimmy is REALLY happy with this team. She has already started her in Obedience and doing GREAT.
"Hope all is
well with you. Just thought I would give you an update on Jazz. Last night
we went to a UKC match just down the road from me. I showed her and
ran or sorta
ran for the first time in about a 2 years with all these knee surgeries. She
won her class and then went on to win the group, I was shocked. She still
has that
puppy prance
and I want to play and of course just finishing the obedience class she
wants to sit now. I was thrilled to have won the group!!! In the Best of
Show I think she was the youngest dog there and she was all puppy by that
time best in show rolled around. She looked at the judge and had that
look on her face like I am going to lick you big time and then sat for him.
We stacked her again but the body just kept wiggling now stop. On the down
and back she pranced and was just having a grand old time. After the show I
judge said he loves her attitude and that she was just having so much fun.
Too bad I can't go back this morning, I have another dog I need to take to
the vet around 10am but I will see what happens for the afternoon or
tomorrows show. I will send along a couple of pictures from last
weekend of Jazz playing in the yard with my nephew."
Take care
Tammy Bruns,
Ohio
Her sister Jarci won AIRK National Best Puppy Last year so now her sister Jazz wanted to show off too...hehehe...Way to go girls!
UPDATE!! She took Back to Back Group 1 Placements!! GRATS TAMMY!!

vom Drakkenfels is proud to announce the O-litter has been born. On May 23rd at 6:30 AM 6 little boys and 3 little girls blessed my life. Blondy is one of the toughest bitches I have met in my 20+ years in dogs when it comes to her babies. She basically has kept everyone OUT of her room and she will tell us soundly to keep the noise down. She is one of the most superior mothers I have ever met. I would like to send a special thank you to Manson Johnson who reminded me that 15 years ago females were not so pampered and assisted and Blondy is typical of that time. I want more like her. She loves them with her whole heart and is a clean and through mother. She has started to permit us into her room but do not touch. We are becoming well trained...hehehe... I will be leaving the tails on this litter as agreed with my stud owner. I will give them every chance at success on a worldwide basis. Thanks for letting me share.

When life is a downer And things get pretty rough. The best cure I can think of Is to hug me a pup.
Their paws are so tiny And breath sugar sweet Life suddenly gets better From just this tiny treat.
So Blondy my dearest, Lets get over all this fuss, ‘cause that breath I’m awaiting Can’t come soon enough!

Morphine, ketamine, and Lidocaine. He was able to rest comfortably, however,
lab work indicated renal and liver complications. Godspeed Elric...Thank you for little Gryphon to comfort her and I will do
what i can to take care of her for you. |

USRC North East Regional Sieger Show
We arrived to the show with 14 dogs from all over the state of Florida. I was very lucky to have Lynn go up with me this trip to help take on some of the work. We started our day with the pup males which we brought along a few for Eve and Manson. They were on thier way to the show and the flight was due to land that afternoon...I took in little Sundance for Eve for 4-6 and he was 3rd place, Lynn's boy Lothar vom Drakkenfels had a wonderful show and was 2nd place in 6-9, We were hoping before the girls started that Eve would be there because she was going to show her special ones...Nirvana vom Vilstaler Land and Maggie (Imagine. It was still a good showing for the girls...Paul Johnson's little one Achelios was VP3 in 4-6 , Nirvana was VP1 was VP1 with Anthony, Maggie was VP1 in the 9-12 and EVE MADE IT for her...hehehe...She and Manson went back in with them later and we cheered them on! I had both Krista and Kara vom Drakkenfels in for the 9-12 class and they both went VP. Then it was James Kelley's girl Dori aus der Espenstatte from the Hause Kellemen Kennel next... V1 from the 18-24 class!! she just turned 18 mo that past week so this was a great win for her and her owner. The next day was very close to the performance the dogs gave the day before. Sue Lynch's boy Ketelhaus' da devil Made me do it (Demen) was V2 from a HUGE open male class. On the move that boy is unstoppable. Tony was V2 with Karthago vom Vilstaler Land in the Champions class, Fara vom Beni was again V1 but this time from the Champions class since I got her paperwork in from over seas. Eve's girl Unforgetable was V2 from the Champions class. The big news was Tony Sajiewicz and his boy Eastlakes Leo vom Radersfuhrer. They completed the AD 2 days before the show and walked into the Working males class only to move from V1 to USRC NE Reg 2009 Sieger!! GRATS TONY!!!!! You deserve it hon...You worked HARD with a beautiful dog and it paid off... CONGRATS to all the winners for the 2009 USRC NE Regionals/Spark sieger Show. This show was another outstanding time and Samantha and Steve worked VERY hard to make sure we all had a wonderful time. Dieter Hoffman as always was a teacher and picked the dogs that best fit the standard. Thank you for your insights and knowledge. Grethen Caldwell took some shots that I'm hoping to see soon....and post a few. |

A'Damien vom Drakkenfels is now SchH/VPG1 with Hard work and alot of Training hours that has paid off for my Grandpup and his dedicated owner Quinn Webb. They passed this title under respected judge Roland Siebel. I will let Quinn tell you in his words:
"Hello all, I hope everyone had a good weekend. Mine was fantastic. When I
got Damien as a puppy I wanted him to attain certain titles by a certain
age. After a revision or two Damien passed his SchH I today. A very special
thank you goes out to Amanda Hoskinson and Steve Gregalunas for all of their
help. Steve put in a lot of time & effort with us so we could earn our
title. Amanda helped me out tremendously in tracking which showed in his
performance today with a score of 93. Not too bad for a dog that pretty much
learned how to track 4 months ago. So be patient with your dogs and they
will make you proud. "
Quinn Webb
vom Langenshof Rottweilers I am PROUD of you and Damien, Quinn...No words could ever express how happy you have made me with the love you have shown this beautiful boy. Thank you.

This was his first shows and his owners Lynn Murdocca is now a VERY happy and proud mama. Her daughter Marissa is now part of the team and becoming really good with the leash. Of course Grandma Kimmy stepped in to lend a hand. Kaiya, Kara, and Krista were all present but this time it was Krista who would make it into the placements with a VP4. We took with us 3 littles ones for Eve and Manson Johnson at vom Evman's who were not able to join us trip. Her little girls were wonderful! and very full of spirit! But her best news came when her young boy champion Karthago vom Vilstaler land won the Champion class. Eve shared with me that this boy has 3 back to back 4 pt majors in AKC and a group placement already. He just turned 2 so I know there is great things in store for him. I'm Sure we will be hearing only great things about Karthago. Sue Lynch from Ketelhaus Rottweilers was there with us this show and close at hand for her boy Demen to win the V4 from the Open male class. She has some super nice young ones up and coming and for me that means more fun as they grow. My friends Joanna Lockner and Terry fom von Mitternadt were there with thier kids all the way from Illinios. |

a message from our newest Family members.... "We’ve just brought home the cutest rottie pup ever! Check out the attached photos and our Picasa online album for some great “group” shots (http://picasaweb.google.com/cstanley77/SamsonComesHome2182009#)... His “sister from another mister”, our Shih-Tzu “Empress” doesn’t quite know what to make of him at the moment… the second shot could easily have the subtitle “Stop touching me! Dad, Samson is touching me!!!”… should be a blast watching them get to know each other. We adopted Samson from vom Drakkenfels (www.vomdrakkenfels.com) nearby in Polk City where he was fed mostly miracle grow (must have been because he’s soooooo big and healthy)…. Gonna be a monstah! Can’t wait for everyone to see him up close and personal… better hurry because Kimmy predicts he’ll double his weight in the next two weeks (right now he’s 15 pounds)… the chubby bouncing bear stage won’t last long… Nikko vom Drakkenfels (aka Samson)

I took Damien to Seminole Rottweiler Club's Specialty show in Valdosta, GA.
We started on his Rally Excellent. In Rally excellent one of the excersises
is a walking stand and stay. A walking stand I've only seen in a AKC UD
routine and a SchH II routine. In Rally they post your routine outside the
ring for eveyone to see. Once I saw we had to do a walking stand I freaked
out a bit because we never practiced it. Damien is such an amazing dog he
learned it in less than 5 minutes. So after all was said & done at the end
of the day Damien nailed his walking stand earning his first leg towards his
Rally Excellent with 97 points out of a possible 100.
