Hoky Va-Pe - Page 3

I have seen Tyson in person while he was in Slovakia for matings,his keeper Mr. Sudimak, the owner of Eqidius kennel told us the same - a very dominant dog. However,I can say that Hoky is much better producer than Tyson. Tyson gave some great dogs but on the other hand also a lot not very good dogs.He was quite a disappointment,breeders expected more from him.A lot of pups from him didn´t have retrieve drive,were on smaller size plus sometimes weak nerves.It seems that he gave some good dogs with females that were very strong in passing their type on their progeny.
Hoky´s mom Beky Va-Pe was a top female from top lines.Her dam Loggi Maineiche produced top progeny - Akim,Arne,Cir,Cisko,Dunco,Duna,Dona,Darka Va-Pe. Hoky was the only pup in the litter.He has produced more than well in each of his matings regardless of the qualities of the females.Hoky gives strong nerves,social behaviour,high drives,willingness to work,high trainability.Lot of his sons and daughters are incredibly fast in protection work,bite hard with full and calm grips. His only problem is that despite the fact that he has correct elbows,he sometimes produce bad elbows - it goes from Loggi.He also carries gene for long coat.No dog is perfect but Hoky is very very close to it.

So possessiveness with poor retrieves is typical of this line?  Does Hoky have and/or produce this?

Lasso looks like an awesome dog; though I admit on the defense of handler video, I'm not really sure what it's suppose to look like.  I'd love to get into more bite sports other than SchH, but SchH is all I have in my area.

Hoky passes high drives - prey and retrieve as well plus social behaviour and willingness to work for the handler.A lot of his sons and daughters are extremely fast and hard in bitework with full and calm bite,environmentally safe.Lot of them have very good civil drive,easy to switch on/off.

Check out the female Jennifer Moravia Artex that is out of Hoky Va-Pe on youtube.  I'll try to attached a link:

I have a 14 month old female coming to me out of Jennifer in the next couple of weeks.  Very excited about this new pup.
 

I know this thread is older now, but thought I would bump it back up because Hoky really deserves the recognition. His son, Irmus Galan Nalag is cleaning up here in the US & is already becoming a strong producer himself!


in February, I also became the proud new mom of a Hoky son :) his name is Bax Kedul Hof aka "Brix" and he a dream puppy. I fully expect him to be a powerhouse and stellar competition dog, as long as I don't screw him up!

I LOVE this puppy! (even though he can be quite naughty.. as indicated by the above picture)

I saw Irmus in Columbus last month......he is a very strong dog. Is Hoky still producing and where is he located?

Hoky is in Slovakia and Yes, he is still producing. I know of a breeder that will have his son for sale soon. I have brought in two of his sons and so far all is good. Nice family dogs that work too, raised by nice people, socialized and prepared for further training.

The pup in this video is Hoky's Granddaughter, Sire is Hoky’s son Rush.

Got to stick up for the decoy/helper in the first hocky video. Watch his right foot its more of a slip than the speed of the dog which takes him down...

Great dogs though! The fact it was a slip takes nothing away from them...
