I have just now noticed your comments, Preston, and I am touched and stunned. I have always felt in my heart Uzi was special, but of course I think so as she is mine. I did title her myself, her protection work up to her SchH1 was done by Wolfgang Gross and after her title I worked with various agitators at TOPS in Dog Training, IL, to balance her civil drives. My two deepest regrets with her are that I have not had more successful breedings with her, and that I did not take her to a SchH3. I should have. Hopefully the daughter I have from her here has good xrays, she is showing her mother's stable temperament and strong bitework.

This video clip shows V Uzi's perfect temperament and great confirmation. This is the living GSD standard we so rarely see. Less than 3% of the West German blooded GSDs bred anywhere in the world are this good looking.

Undoubtedly V Uzi is one of the very finest bitches in the USA. She has the ideal temperament that a German Shepherd should have. There are very few bitches this good overall in the USA anywhere. Actually it is not an exageration to call her temperament perfect. This is the type of soundness needed in German Shepherds. Do not doubt however that her calmness, stability and innate friendliness to children and people in general in any way detracts from her serious need to dominate her environment and her ability to defend her master or her space in a split second with extremely pronounced, ideal bitework. This bitch knows no fear, it doesn't fit into her head. Notice the very heavy close linebreeding. This proves the value of her sire and dam bloodlines since she is such a valuable bitch. She has produced some very nice progeny, especially notable one bitch linebred off of the fabulous producer Mark, and one male, both from different sires, displaying her producing ability. Beautiful proportions, angulation,ideal front construction, good pigment and overall most excellent confirmation make this a very valuable bitch. Congratulations to her owner and whoever is responsible for her training.

Does anyone know how this breeding came out? Progeny results? Email is fine, janisnovak@comcast.net

Okay, *sniffle* for details on the out come of the litter, I would call Kelly directly.
A repeat breeding will be taking place very soon as Ms. "Thang" will be coming into season again. xoxo I love you Ty! You're lookin' good Tigra, don't listen to what your mom has to say about you blowing your coat! :) {it's always in good condition}

Okay, so I was going to say nothing and let Kelly talk about her first breeding, but I see nothing here yet, so Im'a do it!!! :)
"Tigra" (Uzi von der Mausespitz) HER FIRST BREEDING IS TAKING PLACE THIS WEEK!!!!!!!!

Uzi (Tigra) made her SchH1 9/14/03, under SV/GSSC Raino Flugge, pronounced courage in protection.
