juneau was an honour to watch at the 2010 usa sieger show. a true specimen of a total german shepherd who can excel in both areas. i hope more work and show breeders take advantage of him.

I would like to congratulate My Dear Friend/Coach Mr. Ravi Iyer once again after knowing some of the facts which indeed are worth begin proud of someone in this game.
In the history of Schutzhund in USA it is very rare for someone who has never done Schutzhund before to train his 1st dog and that too a show line dog to the level of National Championship.

Right now Juneau vom Haus Tyson is one of the few Show line GSD to become the hottest favorite for winning the Universal Sieger title.

We should learn the Amount of dedication Ravi has put in being a Doctor and spending time for training the dog to such a level is not a Joke. We should instead of wasting our time in doing the entire foolish thing we do on this site can use this site for the betterment and learning some good things with people who are sincerely doing something.

Hope we all can wish Ravi as being an INDIAN to compete and attain the best result for his dog in the National Championships.
All the best Ravi.

Regards,

Here is another dog that is well structured, nicely pigmented and has been demonstrating excellent working abilities.I know this dog from a very young age.A complete German shepherd, true to the breed characteristics envisioned by Max Von stephanitz.Good luck with future achievements in the show and working rings!

Looking at the previous comments about this dog - I'd say he's definately shaped up to be a great dog!!!! Super.

Comments by SV Judge Herr Hans-Peter Schweimer at the Lighthouse Schutzhund Club Conformation show in Long Island, NY.

"Catalogue # 96.. Juneau vom Haus Tyson. Here we see another young male who is a V-category. He has not yet been breed surveyed but I fully expect him to pass that in the near future. Structure is medium build with good bone. Very good expression. High at the withers, straight back, croup could be somewhat longer. Good angulation at the front. Very good angulation at the rear. Good chest proportions. Straight in the front and straight coming and going. Powerful and effective rear drive, with ground covering gait and free front reach. V-3 Congratulations."

SV Judge Vic Wilms comments on Juneau vom Haus Tyson at his BH trial at Upper Bucks Schutzhund Club on Apr. 29th, 2006:

"A great dog with excellent drive for work and conformationally correct. He would rate as a V in any conformation assessment. We need to see more dogs like this in the Schutzhund sport."

The following are quoted comments by T. Floyd on Juneau vom Haus Tyson at a Schutzhund seminar in Northern Virginia held on July 28-30, 2005. Juneau was 13 and 1/2 months old at the time and had received 16 sessions of Schutzhund training at Blitzburg Hundesport Schutzhund club under Joe Gribben.

"A V-class dog with excellent drive, very confident with superb temperament, solid nerves, very clear head and good bite. Strong love of his handler with desire to work and please him. Handles corrections very well with immediate improvement in working performance."

Juneau was exposed to the sleeve for the first time by T. Floyd and his comments were," Solid bite, strong power for a 13 month old. Needs more experience and training in targeting but overall this dog can easily make it to a Schutzhund III level."

On tracking: " This dog clearly likes to use his nose and shows good drive and distraction free focus."

Juneau placed VP9 in the 9-12 month male puppy class at the Northeastern Regional Conformation & Breed Survey held on Apr 1-3, 2005 at the Schutzhund Club of Fairfax, VA, U.S.A. Conformation Judge: SV Erich Bosl

This is an early picture of Juneau at 5.5 months age. He is still very much a puppy but is shaping up with great temperament, unflappable nerve and tremendous drive. Very typey structure and should do very well in any conformation assessment. I expect him to be a great dog.
