Sometimes as breeders, we find ourselves wondering why we do what we do.  Surely there are other things we could do in life that would bring us less heartache.  Today, we were very clearly reminded why it is all worthwhile by owner Lucy Newton, of Vermont, who wrote this about her up and coming SAR/Cadevar dog Dugan's first official search...

Dugan found a missing 22 year old woman today!!! 

"She had been missing since Thursday morning, she was hypothermic and, due to her mental status, not likely to have done anything to get herself out of the woods or to avoid succumbing to hypothermia. Dugan worked well, he is still young and inexperienced, but clearly knew why he was out there and what he was looking for.  He sure took a big giant step in convincing me to trust him today!!  I was more than thrilled to discover that the only thing in a huge area filled with a lot of distractions (especially deer and geese) that captured his attention was the scent of a missing person."

While we are all aware of how much our dogs enrich our lives, we never dreamed that one of our dogs could affect the life of another so greatly.  We thank Lucy for giving Dugan the opportunity to reach his full potential as a true working dog.  Click on the photo below to see more of Lucy and Dugan...

The Gabe/Iza Puppies (6 Males/4 Females) have arrived!!!!!

 

January 1, 2007

Each January 1st, I try to include a little recap of the previous year for the website.  This year, I hardly know where to start.  To say I'm overwhelmed by the events of 2006 would be an understatement.  When I began breeding, I had three goals that I hoped to eventually achieve.  The first, to make both Quilla and Tressy ARC Gold Dams.  The second, to produce a dog that could earn both it's AKC Championship and Schutzhund 3 and the third, an ongoing goal to know that every puppy we brought into this world ends up in its perfect forever home.  2006 saw each of these dreams come true.  Quilla joined Tressy as an ARC Gold Dam (as did Gambol & Beca), not one but TWO of our girls (Iza & Charm) earned both their AKC Championship and Schutzhund 3 titles, and as always, our pups ended up in the most wonderful of homes.

In the show rings, 2006 was simply too good to be true.  Our pups won major awards at the ARC National, Medallion Rottweiler Club, Northstar Rottweiler Club, Hoosier Rottweiler Club, Dogwood Rottweiler Club, Rottweiler Club of Greater NY, Sovereign Rottweiler Club and RCC Regional Specialties.   Five finished AKC Championships and nine finished CKC Championships.  Five more were AKC Major pointed.  Patton won BISS and Iza was again BOSS in 2006.  More than we can count earned working titles across nearly every venue (see below).  We are especially proud that three of our pups (Duck, Charm & Flapper) earned the AKC Versatile Companion Dog (VCD1) designation. 

As always, our success is the result of a team effort and 2006 saw both our own pups, and Yngo's pups, far exceeding our expectations once again.  Congratulations to the following:

Moe Mullen & Devlin ~ RN

2006 also saw 10 pups pass the Temperament Test, 10 pass the Herding Instinct Test and 28 earn their CGC (or CGN) certificate!

In our own home, Mike & Yngo earned the long coveted AKC TDX title, Iza thrilled us by finishing her AKC and UKC Championships as well as earning her AKC & CKC CDX, RA and RE with Ann, plus SchHIII & IPOIII titles with Mike.  Daughter, Nova, finished her CKC Championship.  Even Grandma Gambol got into the act, earning her RN and RA titles at age 10 1/2!  Also in 2006,  Yngo  took his position as the Top Producing Rottweiler of all time in Canada, and Iza & Envy received their ARC Versatility Excellent Awards.

We co-bred two litters in 2006.  Thank you to breeders Donna Wielert (Bailey) and Cassie Levy (Emma) for raising outstanding pups under our Kennel name.  Through these litters, we were pleased to welcome the following owners to our family in 2006:  Dr. Sue Reis DVM & Chris Southard, Dr. Michelle Amtower DVM, Lisa Boucher, Jacqui Woodhall, Preston Luckett, Brettschneider & Chris Getschow, John & Robin Pinner, Maria Germano, Barbara & Cassie Young, Gus Alexandropoulos & Christine Triggs, Darci Proctor, Crystal & Cliff Wyatt, Rick & Karen Malone and Dr. James & Janice Wilson.  We also forged relationships with stud dog owners, Stacie Fults (Oso) and Kathy Howse (Gabe) while doing our 2006 breedings and once again used Stuart & Sue Larsen's Elvis.  We are excited to see what these new pups grow up to become.

2007 will be a bit of a turning point for Esmond Rottweilers.  Tressy, Gambol, Beca, Envy and yes, even Yngo, are now retired.  We have two new additions...Clare & Simone, both of whom we are very excited about.  It all seems a little like the changing of the guard and, while we're excited about the future, it is bittersweet.  2007 will begin a new direction for our breeding program as well.  We will no longer be seeking outside stud dogs after Iza's breedings, but instead will breed back into our own family lines for a few years.  We hope that our endeavors in this regard will enable us to continue breeding superior working dogs who can also excel in the conformation rings. 

We wish you all the best in the coming year and look forward to seeing you and your dogs at the shows and trials...
