Dilly is an intelligent, calm, elegant female with a ton of natural ability. She is a dream to train, and learns with minimal repetition. Her drive to work is excellent. Dilly is quiet in the home with a true off switch and is gentle with children.

She has a very fine nose, scenting at a long distance. Her search is methodical, ranging in distance due to the amount of cover, far and open in short wide open spaces and close and tight in dense woods. She adapts on her own. Dilly has excellent manners behind game. She knows how to move with the game that is not sitting tight and not bump it. She has a high natural retrieve instinct wanting to give you everything. Her love of water showed at a young age. She has proven herself as a hunting dog at 18 months old, in North Dakota and Michigan. Dilly has been started in human scent and blood tracking and is taking to it easily. She is sight loud on fur. Dilly will be testing in the VGP in this fall.

His achievements in testing reflect his high aptitude and alignment with the DK standard, but his consistent success in the field is where he truly shines. Whether chasing wild birds or tracking deer, Günther’s relentless work ethic and keen nose make him an invaluable and efficient companion. Günther has been tracking and pointing birds since three months old, showcasing his natural talents. He has been a joy to train making him a pleasure to handle both in the field and at home. Rarely needing to be told twice, he is cooperative and eager to please. His calm, focused mindset allows him to adapt to and overcome the unique challenges of hunting and tracking with remarkable consistency. Günther is exped to test in the VGP this fall.

Delta is a full time house dog that rides well in the car.

Amigo KS vom Seeliggrund

Amigo KS vom Seeliggrund Liver and White, Registration Number 1022/20, born on July 7, 2020 Achieved tests: BTR, D1, HN, Dog Handler Course 1 Point/80 Points, SJ, S1, Suitability Test, VGP 1 Point 336 Points/ÜF, Retrieve Indication, VBR, World Association-VGP 1st Prize 407 Points, Shorthair Champion HD A2; free of OCD/ED, Conformation Rating Very Good

Amigo is a compact, powerful, and elegant medium-sized male (65 cm at the withers). He stands out for his dark pigment and pleasant nature. He is friendly and stress-free with other dogs and demonstrates exceptional willingness to learn. Already in his first year of testing, he delivered flawless performances and successfully passed the VGP test as the highlight. Like his father Jester KS Anjules and his grandfather Dexter KS von der Königsleite, Amigo also shows outstanding performance in water. During the Solms test, Amigo demonstrated this and received a "4h" in the Duck Search. He is used in duck and driven hunts and shows endurance, determination, and excellent pointing manners. Particularly noteworthy is his calm and concentrated work during tracking. He is uncompromising and intelligent when dealing with predatory animals, and at the same time, affectionate and uncomplicated within the family. I would describe Amigo as a "cool guy"! In the Dr. Kleemann Breeding Selection Test 2023, he passed as the second-best male. He received a "4h" in both the search and pointing.

Whelp Date: January 29th, 2025

Echo vom Cedar Valley
Derby P1 all 4s, Derby P1 all 4s, Solms P1 all 4s, VGP P3 290 4h search with out a duck SG 1 HD-A-2 OCD-free

Echo is a beautiful, sweet, and talented DK. In the field, she appears unaffected by gravity, running full speed up and down creek banks all day without tiring or slowing down. In the water, she performs exceptionally, as is characteristic of her lineage, earning a 4h in the VGP search without a duck. I use her for duck hunting, upland hunting, and blood tracking. She is full speed in the field but completely calm in the house and car. Echo is a beloved member of our family who adores children and gets along wonderfully with other dogs.

Akzent is a powerful, intelligent male, with a blood connection we were looking for. Living as a cherished family member, Akzent is as comfortable in the home as he is in the field. His natural hunting instincts and steady demeanor make him an indispensable guide dog at an Orvis-endorsed lodge throughout the hunting season. He boasts speed, power, and an enviable “off switch,” perfectly complementing Echo's qualities.

vom Bosque River - H Litter

Anticipated Whelp Date: Early June 2025

Dayna vom Bosque River 0479/22 - D1, AZP1, HN, HDA2, OCD-Frei, Fw: SG
Grand Dam: Blair vom Kleinen Fluss 1242/17 – D1, AZP2, HDA2, HN, Fw: SG
Grand Sire: Achilles vom Texas A1 0975/19 – AZP2, VGP P2 - 287 pts, HDA2, OCD-Frei, HN, Fw: V

Dayna is out of one of my best litters to date. She is like her sire - exceptional in the water. She will cover a large body of water pursuing a duck, and uses her nose to her advantage. But she also covers ground in the field like nobody’s business and therefore finds a lot of birds - and yet stays within perfect range for hunting over. She is a cooperative dog with a natural retrieve, and like her parents, naturally adjusts her distance based on the terrain and cover. She has hunted a wide variety of different species across multiple states, has a striking appearance, and like all of the pups in her bloodline, is an affectionate cuddler and very calm in the home. She is very thick and muscular, and a medium height.

Angus vom Gansehimmel 0130/23 - D1, S2, HN, HDA2, OCD-Frei, Fw: V
Grand Dam: Valeska vom Gansehimmel 0096/18 - D1, VJP67, S1, HN, HDA1, Fw: V
Grand Sire: Bosko vom Dakota 1115/15 / D1, VJP67, AZP1, VGP1 309 pts, BTR, HN, HDA2, Fw: V

Angus is the type of dog that turns heads. At only 17 months of age he was awarded a “V” (Excellent) in conformation. His confidence and drive in the field are strong and impressive. He is also a very biddable and cooperative dog as well. He has hunted a number of different species across multiple states. Angus has a very calm demeanor and affectionate personality in the home, and when he is in the field, he does his job with stellar performance. He has a natural retrieve as well. He is one of my favorite dogs to hunt over because of his biddability combined with his incredible drive. Angus is a larger framed male and within the breed standard for height. He carries the liver and white gene, so could throw both black-and-white and liver and white pups.

I anticipate this breeding will produce puppies with very strong drive both in field and water, biddability, calmness in the home, and good build with thick muscling. Very likely to have both black-and-white and liver and white puppies in this litter.

vom Bosque River - I Litter

Anticipated Whelp Date: Mid June 2025

Emma vom Bosque River 1086/23
D2, S3, Fw: G, HDA2, OCD-Frei
Grand Dam: Arielle von Feuer-Haus 0617/19 - D1, AZP3, HDA2, HN, Fw: SG
Grand Sire: Achilles vom Texas A1 0975/19 – AZP2, VGP P2 - 287 pts, HDA2, OCD-Frei, HN, Fw: V

Emma is a stunning female, and a bird finding machine. She is thick and muscular, moderate height, and has a very sweet personality. From a young age, she has hunted multiple species of upland game, and this season she was finding wild pheasants that even some more experienced dogs missed. In the home, she is the type to curl up on the couch next to you. Some of her littermates were actively hunting ducks all season long at six months of age, with a natural retrieve and no training. Emma is a real pleasure to hunt over, and a joy to own. She carries the liver and white gene, so could throw both black-and-white and liver and white pups in this breeding.
