New owner: What do the codes mean? - Page 1

We have just acquired our first pedigree GS and have been given what looks like a pedigee but it is only in German and Bulgarian which adds to out trouble understanding the codes used on the form.  Can / will anyone assist please?

Something which may be to do with "evaluation": Kkl.1; V, SchH2, DNA; SG IRK Korkl.2; SchH3 FH; SchH1; VA "a"zuerkant Lebenszent; V Korkl.1 JU; 3xCAC; 1XCACIB; Korkl.1a  IP01

Something which may be to do with Colour and making: SbrA

If you can't help me directly perhaps you could direct me to somewhere where I can find them for myself.

Thankyou

I hope you have many years of enjoyment with your new GSD.

What did the importer of the dog tell you about the dog? 

Thanks, that makes it much clearer, but what might SbrA mean as a colour or marking.

All the breeder told us was that the puppy was bred in Bulgaria, the father (Hagdahl's Arex - SZ 2008846) was bought in Germany for 1,500 Euros.  We saw his mother and father (and his older brothers).

Oh, I see.  I thought you were talking about your dog, I didn't realize you got a puppy and were wondering about titles of dogs in the pedigree.  Sorry for the confusion.

sbrA means black with brown markings, it is the usual color breeders enter when they are talking about black and red showlines.     s-schwarz-black               br-braun-brown        A-Abzeichen-markings      g-gelb-yellow    gr-grau-sable

and a few other color Abbreviations include toemarks, mask, etc.

Thanks for all your help, we are nearly there now , just DNA, IRK and JU to go - any more ideas?
