SOLD to Jan N., South Elgin, Illinois!
Alexa's pedigree: http://www.pedigreedatabase.com/gsd/pedigree/464282.html
Alexa just turned five years old. Alexa was imported by me from Germany. She
has a bubbly personality, very social with people, social with male dogs, but not
social with female dogs. Alexa is good with children, but her manners can be a
bit rough, having been raised to be a sport competition dog in Germany, not a
family pet.
Alexa would be an excellent Schutzhund competitor. She has over the top prey
drive, and she is very hard. You can give her a hard correction and all Alexa does
is change the direction at which she approaches the problem, and this is even in
the obedience phase of Schutzhund. She is strong and intense in protection, and
has a good calm full bite. She displays good barking. She has a short coupled
and powerful, stocky, deep body. She has been a great brood bitch the last two
years, producing progeny who will be soon be certified in SAR, scent detection
for a Sheriffs department, and titled in Schutzhund, while she herself is only 5
years old and produced her first of two litters at three years of age.
Alexa is bred 2-3 on Crok vom Erlenbusch (SG-BSP) Kkl 2. She carries the solid
black gene and has produced several solid black puppies. Alexa whelped a litter
last April of nine puppies. The litter before that was a litter of 11 puppies.
I am not selling Alexa as a brood bitch primarily, hence the very reasonable price
for such a great looking titled tough Schutzhund bitch with this powerhouse
pedigree. Alexa lost her most recent litter last month at about her fifth week of
pregnancy. My vet and I have discussed her symptoms and we believe that she
has the very treat-able condition of not producing progesterone at some point in
the pregnancy. It is possible to get her pregnant and keep her pregnant with this
condition with the help of a reproductive veterinarian. One has to pull blood for
progesterone testing right after breeding, then again one month later, and if
necessary give her some progesterone shots, apparently on a schedule. I have
not investigated all of the particulars of doing this schedule as I myself own
several other European import titled females with equally great pedigrees who do
not require any extra help to stay pregnant. I think Alexa would be happier being
someone else's constant buddy and to produce an occassional litter for them.
Alexa deserves that. I invite you to speak to my reproductive veterinarian or have
your own vet speak to him concerning the progesterone proceedure for keeping a
dog with this issue pregnant to produce you a nice big litter of top working dogs.
Pictures are available. I may be able to do a video of her in training if you require
one, please call or write me about your requests. References are available from
my Schutzhund club training director and you can also contact owners of her
pups who are very happy to let you know how great Alexa's offspring are--if you
were to decide to go to the trouble of doing the progesterone scheduling thing. It
would be well worth your time to breed a pup or two for yourself as well as make
up her purchase price, as the people who have her pups are absolutely crazy
about them and their working talents.
Shipping is easy, and will not cost you as much as you probably think it would. I
used to send out all of my females for breeding to top studs all over the USA and
back again.
I am asking $2000 for Alexa. She is up to date on her shots, tattooed, AKC
registration as well as her SV pink papers, and microchipped.

this Crok bred female.

A video of "Pekoe" in the Schutzhund trial where he acquired his SchH2 title:

Pekoe's dam was a certified search and rescue dog, who's certification was in searching
for drowning victims. Pekoes sire was titled SchH3, and his grandsire was the world
famous producer Eron Mat Roz, ZVV3, IPO3, OP2, SchH3.
Peko's full brother Fox is currently a certified police dog for the Pierce County Sheriff's
Dept. in Washington State. Fox is a Patrol Dog and has been working the street since
2003.
Pekoe's pedigree: http://www.pedigreedatabase.com/gsd/pedigree/460400.html
"Pekoe" is a medium-large, solid black German Shepherd male with protection training
to the SchH3 level. He is a dog with a strong protective instinct, and yet has super
obedience and control, having been raised since eight weeks of age by a Schutzhund
trainer/competitor with ten+ years of experience. Pekoe is NOT dominant with other
dogs, and he has been raised up with a family with a small child from his little person's
birth (the child is now 5 years old). Pekoe is aloof with strangers, but is completely
under control. He has been known to growl warningly at strange men he thinks looks
suspicious, though he has never been forced to take action. A growl from this serious
looking black German Shepherd has been good enough to forestall any possible issues.
The owner states that Pekoe has only done this with a few strange men, and not any
women.
As a competition dog, Pekoe is wonderful in tracking and obedience. In the protection
phase in Schutzhund, he lacks the showing of power specifically in the barking and
guarding elements that the owner would like to have in a dog to compete at the higher
levels of Schutzhund sport competitions. The dog has no handler aggression.
Pekoe loves to retrieve and could play or run with you all day. It would be easy to teach
Pekoe to skijor and carry a backpack for hiking, two activities he would love to learn
from you.
The owner states that he believes that Pekoe would do best at AKC Obedience, or AKC
Tracking pursuits, or as an active and super under control family protective companion
dog. Any persons seeking to have Pekoe as a protection type dog is encouraged to talk
to the owner in greater depth.
Pekoe would also make a good agility dog with his super athleticism. He has been in the
house, though not strictly a house dog, and is crate trained. He is not familiar with cats,
and we cannot guarantee his good behavior with cats, though it is possible he could
become accustomed to them. Pekoes pack drive is very strong, and therefore he is
willing and even eager to please his family.
Pekoe is priced at $3,800. He comes with full registration, his USCA scorebook, and is up
to date on shots and wormings. He is already microchipped and tattooed.
Please contact Veronica at: sales@worthykennels.com or call me at 907-868-3548 if you
are interested in acquiring Pekoe as your family member.
