V1-YIMMY VAN CONTRA
Last years v5, I was impressed by this attractive well pigmented male.
He is of correct size and of very good proportions. He moves with
excellent free front reach and very powerful hind thrust. I liked his
over and underline, much better looking dog in actual than in the
photograph. He had a decent progeny (better than some of the va dogs)
but could not be included in the elite club because of incest breeding
in the mother line and a very high breed value zw(114). He produced in
the young class males - sg 30-cassious .v contra and sg 44- connan v.
contra. In the young class (18-24 months) females, Vimmy produced
sg-38-Alfons david afra, sg-80, 104, 106 and 109. In the youth class
(12-18 months) males, Vimmy produced sg-28-mork dei profeti, sg
45-Gatillo von batu, sg-76,107 and 118. In the youth female class, he
produced sg-59-Guarda von batu and sg-107.

The fact is that Vimmy has produced some of these offsprings without
getting top females from top german kennels, I presume that this is
Vimmy�s last year in Germany as Mr. Mayer is very strict about the hips
and zw scores. So, Vimmy has reached the highest point of his show
carrier and will definitely get out of Germany as he is favoured little
by german breeders for the above reason.
V2-The mack v. aducht son Aron Terra dei forte is a very well
proportioned correct size male with very good expression and excellent
overline. He had a lot of fire and willingness, and showed fluid
movement. His immense enthusiasm in the fast lap, and excellent ground
coverage, I suppose, made Mr. Mayer include him in the top position
without a progeny group to continue.
RIKKOR- MACK ADUCHT blood-line as there were no top males from the
double seiger . RIKKOR.
V3-NEGUS V. HOLTKAMPERSEE
Sired by Sieiger Zamp thermodos, to me he was the most correctly
constructed dog, the best zamp son with a proven mother line. A
deserving winner, this year his daughter, the young class seigerin
sg-1-paula v. gutlethe stole everybody�s heart with her faultless
anatomy and effortless performance, surely an outstanding female in
recent years. For me, if she passes the courage test in 2008, she must
be a va female. If Negus passes this kind of anatomical virtues to his
progeny in 2008, he will be included in va. His brother naxos also
became v-29, and is widely used in the
US
as well as in Germany.
Apart from the above dogs, following are some of the males from the rest
of the open class that I liked.
V6-BAZI.V.D.URBECKE - for his courage test, anatomy and blood-line
V7-YEROM VOM HAUS SALIHIN - a beautifully constructed dog
V9-ILBO VOM HOLTKAMPERSEE - great improvement from v-32 in 2006 to top
positioning 2007
V10- KALI V.D.WERTHER-MUHLE � excellent temperament and consistent
performance. In 2008, he will have very good offspring.
V18-XENON .V. QUARTIERLATIN - well balanced dog with excellent
blood-line
V21=JUMBO DI ZENVREDO - good looking dog with excellent blood line,
producing nice puppies
V23-DIGGER VOM ELZMUNDUNGSRAUM - a top class zamp son, with excellent
mother line, tipped to be a top producer
V28-AREX VOM HERBRAMERWALD � With his willingness to move and
outstanding character, this Timo son entertained the entire stadium with
his spirit and energy, and moved many places ahead. A beautiful gray
dog, his only set back is his high zw score. Bitches of low zw score
should be taken to him.
According to me, in the progeny group, Zamp thermodos presented superb
progeny with very good over and under line, head, expression,
pigmentation and croupe.
The PROGENY group of Quenn V.Loherweg was the highlight of the 2007
Seiger Show. Quenn produced well proportioned, strong, masculine males
and big, feminine top quality females. in some cases the upper arm and
the croupe must be longer.
VA
Vegas Du Haus Mansard in a short span of stud time presented a progeny
group of 42, from which 14 dogs and 14 bitches were present at the show.
Vegas produced good front and hind angulation, good over and under line,
with a dark mask over the head and dark pigmentation. This year clearly,
the balance was in favour of his females. Much of Vegas progeny had
long, loose hocks and were wide in the front. Many males looked like
big-size females. I am sure that Vegas will be the surprise package of
2008.
VA3, the hill son dux produced correct size, very good females and few
top males with pronounced character and temperament. This year, he has a
super son in the young class - sg-2-sony.v����

Sieger and Siegerin 2007 !

After the Seiger show, I had the opportunity to visit og-illingen,
og-beeden and belheim. Og-beeden was celebrating its 60th
year and I was privileged to be there. It was really a memorable evening
with people singing and dancing, of-course with the best of food and
liquor.
I
also visited an event organized by the special police Saraland. It
included a demonstration of special work by trained dogs - arresting a
person (with fire arms) from the car, detecting narcotics, dispersing a
fighting mob, discriminating scent, arresting a culprit riding a bike.
It was fun and enjoyable to watch highly trained dogs performing
faultlessly. It was time to be back to my country, but my French friends
invited me to join them at the French Seiger show in Haguenau.
