note:
After
20 years of maintaining the Esmond Rottweilers website, and these
news pages, we will now work toward archiving it as a living history
for our puppy owners, co-breeders and the fancy in general. We
thank everyone who has enjoyed our site over the years and look
forward to you joining us on our
new platform for 2021 and beyond at:

2021
Recap
As
we reflect back to 2021, we are amazed at the resiliancy and
dedication of our puppy owners as they worked to find new ways to
stay safe while also achieving great things with their dogs.
For many, training options have been severely limited, shows have
been scheduled and subsequently cancelled, and we all learned to be
very flexible and adaptable. Outdoor venues became the norm,
challenging us with weather conditions and our dogs learned to show
and trial while we were masked and social distancing. We hope
that the new year will bring better conditions, but we'd like to
recognize all of our pups and owners who persevered and found success
in 2021.

well as various trick dog titles.
In
our own home, our tiny addition, JJ
stole the show for 2021, finishing his AKC Championship, CKC
Championship and Grand Championship, UKC Championship, as well as the
RN, CA, BCAT, TT, NS, CGC and TKN titles! Our own three
Rottweilers, SOLA!, Loki
and Vida have been living a life of
leisure while JJ was out showing. Unfortunately, we did lose Stella
in 2021 and her big presence is missed.
As
we look forward to 2022, we realize that our recaps have been
shorter over the past few years due to Covid restrictions. We
wish health and happienss to everyone in the coming year and hope
that someday we'll all be together again in person!

2020
Recap
2020
has been a unique year for so many due to the Covid-19
pandemic. As families, businesses and schools around the world
learned to adapt to this new reality, dog shows were also
cancelled. Those that went on had protocols adjusted.
Mostly we all stayed home and focused sqarely on keeping those we
care about safe.
Because
of the border closures, we also did not have an Esmond Litters or
co-bred litters in 2020. We hope to be able to announce a
summer 2021 breeding between Vida and Chip,
as well as perhaps one or two related breedings. We thank
everyone for your patience.
Despite
all of this, our puppy owners managed to do truly exceptional things
in the past year. I hope you will all help me to
celebrate these below:
Another
great year for Pan!!!
Pan
had a very short show season, but managed to bring home four more
Best in Show wins in just four weekends out. He finished as
Canada's #1 Rottweiler, #2 Working Dog and #8 All Breeds!!!
Congratulations to owner Dawn Phillips and handler Lori-Ann Fischer!
Pan's
niece Rayna (Ace/Beejus) also finished the year as Canada's #1
Rottweiler Bitch - owner handled by Lisa Boucher in New Brunswick!

pup Khonshu (Nox/Bindi) also some nice wins in 2020, earning back to
back majors in Indianapolis, including BOW and Select Dog at the
Hoosier Rottweiler Club Specialties! Congratulations to owner
Sarah Rowbotham-Northrup!
There
were also plenty of pups earning the TT, HIC, CGN or CGC titles as
well as various trick dog titles. Note that Wiser, above,
finished his Trick Dog Championship with owner Sue Trout!
And...
JJ has finally arrived!
We
also have big news that JJ the Papillon has arrived in Canada after
earning his FCI International Championship at his one and only show
in 2020. We're excited to see what his future holds for this
lovely boy. Go to www.queenblessjj.com
to view his own webpage.
While
2020 proved that we never know what the future will hold,
we will focus on the positive and will be cheering our friends and
puppy owners on to success in 2021.
