looking forward to it. This weekend was special and turned out to be
Fantastic for my owners and their dogs. My girl Krista vom Drakkenfels was
in the Bred by and won Best Bred by for the Specialty and the first day of the
Miami shows. Lothar vom Drakkenfels owned by Lynn Murdocca was 1st place
in 12-15 sweeps at the specialty and won his first pts from Michelle Billings

King vom Drakkenfels (Spartan) owned by Kevin Borkenhagen of Boca Raton made his
first speciality and 2nd time out with a 2nd at the Specialty and 1st for the

potential for future dog events with the amount of space it offered.

Hello everyone,
Over the years I have seen many pictures of Rottweilers doing
carting. They used to be called the Butcher's Dog. I have done many different
things with Damien since he was a puppy and have had some great success with
him. After I finished his Schutzhund title I wanted to try something new with
him. I contacted Dr Tommy Caisango who is a carting Judge and asked him to
train Damien. He agreed & we got started in April. Our first time out Damien
was bucking the cart which is normal the first time a dog gets hooked up to
it. Our second time out was much better as was each time after that. He got
better & better each time we practiced. The trial date was set for October
11th in Melbourne, FL. Our Judge for the day was Carol Burke. Damien & I were
the first to do our Carting Started routine. I was a bit nervous but knew
Damien would be up for the challenge. During CS the dog is on-lead. After the
rest of the dogs finished their routines we all had to do our 3 minute down
stay with the cart still attached. From start to finish our routine was
nearly flawless with a score of 198/200.
Next up Damien got paired with Jane Dyar's bitch "Paid" to do Carting Started
Team. Tommy wanted to take the dogs in for their routine. As he was taking
both dogs to get hooked to the cart was the first time Damien & Paid were
around eachother. They worked excellent together with a 2nd Place finish with
a score of 194/200 and a National ranking pending ARC approval.
Last but not least we did our Carting Intermediate routine. CI is the same
course as CS but it is off-lead. He was ready once again to strut his stuff.
We had lots of fun during our routine then went back for our group down stay.
After the scores were tabulated we earned another first place finish with
196/200. Damien also earned HIT High in Trial for his performance. There are 3
levels to Carting: CS, CI, CX. Each level there is a single & team
competition. On Sunday Damien earned 3 titles CS, CS Team and CI. During their
next trial in Feb 2010 I plan on doing Damien CX. The CX level is the driving
portion ofcarting. Maybe I can talk Kim into getting Damien's sister Arushka
entered so they can earn their CI Team title. Tommy Thank you very much for
all of your help during our training. Without your help this might not of been
possible.
   Damien and his Sister Arusha Congrats Quinn!! and special Thank you to Tommy Casango...you are a great coach and teacher.
The rolling hills of southern Kentucky was the setting of the 2009 Schutzhund Championship and Select Show hosted by the Bluegrass Working Rottweiler Club. The Schutzhund trial was held in the mornings followed by the Select show in the afternoon.
Schutzhund Championship Nine competitors for SCH III, 1 competitor each for SCH I and SCHII were in attendance. Friday was a tough day for the dogs for tracking. It was rainy and windy. Tracking high score was accomplished by Sharon Wilson and her dog Mora. Saturday was chilly, which meant great weather for the dogs (but a bit chilly for some of their human companions) for their obedience. Sharon was on a roll and again took highest score. Sunday was a perfect day for protection and the dogs were all jazzed up to go. Tony Sajewicz and his dog Leo did it again with the highest score. Not bad for the oldest dog in the competition!
Final placements were as follows: Champion Tony Sajewicz and Eastlake’s Leo vom Radelsfuhrer
2nd: Amanda Hoskinson and Voss du Clos Lenka
It was amazing to watch every handler and their dog. One must appreciate just how much time and work these people put into training. It is truly inspirational. Congrats to everyone! Way to go Tony!
Select Show Puppies There were 3 puppies shown by vom Drakkenfels. “Manouk” was first up in the 4-6 month old males, ending up with a 4th placement. “Yoga”, owned by Evie Johnson took a 2nd in 4-6 months females. And “Annika”, owned by James Kelly, also took a 2nd. Best Puppy was awarded to Male “Brock” Bill von der Eifelhexe, owned by Robert Flood Female “Frannie” Francesca, owned by Kassie Jillerat Keep an eye out for these beautiful babies in the future!
Youth The most competitive class, in my opinion, was the 12-18 month female. There were some really nice little girls in this class. “Wally”, owned by James Kelly, took 2nd and “Nirvana”, owned by Evie Johnson and Micheal Stuckenberger, not only took 1st in the class, but went on to win Youth Select Female!
Youth Select was awarded to Male Apollo von Vida, owned by Leilani & Ben Downing Female “Nirvana” Nirvana vom Vlistaler Land
This bitch is going to do great things! Talk about drive!
Adults Sunday was James Kelly’s day! In open males, his dog “Theo” took 1st. In open females, his dogs “Dori” and “Tilly” took 1st and 3rd respectively. Dori also went on to be awarded Select Female! Way to go James! You should be proud! Dori is one nice dog! Select was awarded to Male Force vom Waldbach, owned by Sharon Wilson and Chuck Wilson Female “Dori” Dori Aus der Espenstatte
Thanks to all of the owners for the privilege of presenting some great dogs! Thanks to Kimmy for the opportunity and for sharing her knowledge and answering my infinite questions. Thanks to all the kind people for helping me after a slight hamstring re-injury problem: Michael Kuchta for stretching me to get me through the adults. Jim Sharf for running and then running some more; I could not have done it without you. And to Dan Williams and Tony Sajewicz for their advice, wisdom and friendship. I had a blast!
GREAT JOB Denise!! I knew you could do it hon...you made us all proud.

NEW Champion! Congrats to Ketelhaus' Jada Gumstone and her owner Susan LynchJada was wonderful for the shows held in Deland and we got the final major for her to finish in just 15 shows. Jada was a Natural and didn't need even a day of training from me. We headed into the ring to start just a couple weeks back but Jada had other plans winning in back to back weekends both her majors, Multi BoS, and Multi BoW. She was on fire! It was a pleasure to be on the end of her leash as she taught me all a show dog can do and more. Bred, Owned by Susan Lynch of Ketelhaus Rottweilers and shown by me (pictures)
Damien wins Best of Winners in Tennesee winning yet more points for his AKC Ch!!. Grats Quinn!
"On September 12-13 I took Damien & Lucia to an AKC show in East Ridge, TN.
That was Lucia's first time in an AKC ring. I must say she is going to be a
force to be reckoned with when she gets older. The Judges really loved her.
She stayed in place for her stand for exam like a statue. When we came back to
the Judge from our down & back Lucia stopped on cue gave a look with a twinkle
in her eyes as if she was trying to say don't worry Dad I know what to do. She
certainly did know exactly what to do. Not only did Damien earn Winners Dog &
Best of Winners but Lucia earned Winners Bitch.
Two weeks later I took Damien & Lucia to an AKC show in North Augusta, SC for
another AKC show. Damien stepped into the ring winning his Class then went
back in for points. After he earned 1 point and Winners Dog it was Lucia's
turn in the ring. She was a bit wired that day but still got First Place in
her Class. She is going to kick all their butts in due time. She has an
excellent future ahead of her."

Dogwood Rottweiler Speciality and Atlanta 4 day, GAOnce again we were on the road back up to Atlanta for more shows and attempts to get a few of the kids their AKC points and possibly finish them. A very busy show year for us but worth all the time and effort to accomplish our goals for the dogs. Lynn once again was with me for this trip and we were going to celebrate her son Lothar vom Drakkenfels 1st Birthday. I took Lothar in on for the Speciality show winning 2nd place in the 12-18 month class where he was gifted with toys and treats. We followed that up with Lothar going back into the ring for the Sweepstakes. He not only WON the 12-18 class he went on to win the
Dogwood Rottweiler Club BEST PUPPY IN SPECIALITY SWEEPSTAKES 2009
Lothar is the son of FCI Int.Ch ADamien vom Drakkenfels, SchH/VPG1, BH, BST, RE, CD, CI, CS, TT, CGC and Int Ch. Multi V-1 Bea Elez Rott, CGC.
I think it took me about an hour to pry Lynn off the ceiling and hand her all the toys, ribbons, bowls, ect that were his prize. Lothar continued to show very well the rest of the weekend with us and while we were there we hit all our favorite spots to eat. I had with us little Kimro's Kall me Krazy (Kallie) owned by Elizabeth Williams and she too had a very wonderful weekend winning Reserve Winners Bitch at the Atlanta Toy Breed Speciality the same day as our win with Lothar and taking more AKC points the day we were due to leave. It was truly a Week to remember for us and the owner of Damien and Kallie. I see very promising things for Lothar as he grows. |

| Sue and I went BACK to North Carolina to try to finish up Demen and Jada with thier final majors, more points for Tyson and Kali. It was the 5 days of specialities including the ARC Regionals with breeder judges from actoss the US. We didn't realize it would be a week full of meeting new people and seeing dogs from all over the country. We had the pleasure of spending the weekend with good friend Nancy Noble who had her girl "Helen" entered in the Champions class and Nancy, Rosemary, and Vicky. Everyone had a fantastic time and even came home with some nice gifts from the events. The best part for me for was seeing a boy I had not met before shown by Julie Foster. His name was "Patrone" http://www.chancellorrottweilers.com/patrone.htm. and he impressed me beyond words. We watched as he won Group 1 and cheered him on toward his attempts at Best in Show. We might not have come home with the top placements from this event but it was still very enjoyable and we will do it again next year. | ||||||||||||||||||

Atlanta Circuit, GAThis trip was very much like the trip we spent in NC 2 weeks ago. Lynn was with me on this trip to help and to be honest I am so happy to have my owners along for some good fun while ont he road. We had wonderful wins for both Durenda Henry's boy Tyson and Sue Lynch's girl Jada. The first day of the show Lothar wins First in his class of the 9-12 to show his mom Lynn Murdocca " I can do it too!" Then Tyson wins the Open Class and takes Winners Dog and 2 pts and Jada wins Reserve Winners Bitch with little Kali finishing the day with another Reserve. Second day we saw Jada take Winners and the third and final day she won Winners and Best of Winners! Now all Jada will need is a Major to finish up. Thank you to all the judges and to everyone ringside cheering us on. Next stop: Raleigh, NC to hopefully finish Demen and Jada and give Tyson his last major. We hope to see you there!!
Jada- Tyson and Lothar |

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.

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. |

Congrats to Eve and Manson of von Evman for your success with Karthago vom Vilstalerland accomplishing his AKC Championship with a 5pt Major and a Best of Winners! Karthago is now the first rottweiler to win a Group Placement and second Rottweiler to accomplish the American Championship with a tail. Eve said now Karthago will be heading back to Germany to complete his working titles and breed tests. She recently won the FCI Puerto Rican Grand Championship with back to back Best of Breeds and has goals with this very young boy for much more over the upcoming years.

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…

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.
