If one dog is generally admitted to be one of the most influent in modern breeding, it’s Ives Eulenspiegel, here in picture. It was born at Marianne Bruns’ kennel, a woman who devoted more than 50 years of her life to the Rottweilers. Ives represented a new bloodline in Germany: actually, from his father Astor V Landgraben, he descended from Scandinavian lines, among which was the famous Thor. Ives left in breeding all the tenors from the late 70’s: let’s name only a few here: Dingo V Schwaiger Wappen, Nero V Schloss Reitheim, etc. Those dogs were accomplishing the majority of the mating in the early 80’s.
The influent in the breeding of Von Diverhus of these dogs, has being significant, specially THOR, our kennel own probably the closest breeding to that great dog. The base of our breeding is RUBEN a grand son of THOR
With many wins in Internationals Competitions, and the most important the World Championship of 1988 in Peru.
As years went by, the fame and value of a stud dog were fortunately not only the results of its titles, but mostly of its long term influence on breeding and of its own qualities (Körung, DH, SchH, etc.). Despite what some purists may think, the two dogs below: Noris Vom Gruntenblick, on the left, and Doc Von Der Teufelsbrücke, on the right, are unavoidable studs in today’s selection, and this is true not only in Germany, but also in the majority of the European countries.
Closer to us, i.e. in the past 5 years, new studs have taken over: just to name a few, they are:
Jackomo Von Der Bleichstrasse (a direct son of Noris), below left, and Rick Von Der Burgthann (a son of Doc), below on the right.
Ari Von Hertener Wappen, renown for giving to its descendents a strong character, but also a lot of type. Pascha V Hegestrauch was the best example of this. It’s quite funny to note that Ari was a direct descendent of Buli V Hungerbuhl ZB #42465, the very first ADRK Klubsieger, in 1971, in Rottweil, and which also won the year after in Cologne.
Hassan Von Königsgarten, a descendent from the Ives Eulenspeigel line, left it smark with its sons and grandsons, Chris, Irk, et Pascha Vom Obergrombascher Schloss, Matcho V Burgthann and Endy Von Der Kurpfalz etc.
Falco Von Der Tente, a small male which left famous descendents like Ingo, Iwan, and Ilco, 3 brothers from the same litter born at the Von Fusse Der Eifel Kennel.
The head
There’s a determining element which one should not forget to mention in this article about the Rottweiler, and it’s the head, the appreciation of which can vary depending on the judges. Below are the heads of two great champions from the last 3 years, and yet they are quite different.
This may be surprising for the neophyte, as this is also true in the native country of the breed. On the left, the Klubsieger 2000, Arko, a dog which won almost everything that year, and on the right Mambo Von Der Crossener Ranch, the most titled dogs in the last 5 months in German shows, and which may very likely be the Winner of the next ADRK Klubsiegerschau…
Contrary to what has often been written or said about Germany, mass breeding never was a common practice in the country. There never was the same phenomenon which crossed the whole world, and which caused a boom in the number of births. Anyway, there’s a compulsory test, the ZTP, for any future reproducer in Germany: excessive size, lack of character, result of hips exam ++ or +++, damaged elbows (ED), lacking teeth, yellowish eyes, and the dog fails the test!
Un perro que generalmente ha sido admitido como el mas influyente en las crías modernas, es el perro Ives Eulenspiegel, aquí lo vemos en la foto. Nació en el criadero Mariannne Bruns’ Kennels, una señora que dedicó mas de 50 años de su vida, a la raza Rottweiler. Ives representó una nueva línea de sangre en Alemania actualmente. Su padre Astor V Landgraben, era descendiente de líneas Danesas, en la que estaba el Famoso perro THOR. Ives dejó hijos importantes en la década de los ’70 y para nombrar algunos aquí, mencionamos a Dingo Von Schwaiger Wappen, Nero V Schloss, etc.. Todos estos perros completaron sus crianzas al principio de la década de los ’80.
La influencia en las crias Von Diverhus de estos perros, ha sido significativa, especialmente la de THOR, siendo nuestro criadero, poseedor muy probable de la sangre mas cercana a este gran Perro. Base de nuestro criadero es Ruben nieto de Thor y ganador de innumerables competencias Internacionales, entre ellas el campeonato mundial de 1988 en Perú.
