Judges

We are delighted to welcome Erich Bösl and Albrecht Woerner to Reston, VA, to judge our 2011 North American Sieger Show.

SV Körmeister Judge Erich Bösl

Having discovered a love for animals at an early age, Erich Bösl joined the SV in 1977. In December 1978 he established his breeding program under the kennel name "von der Piste Trophe." Only two years later, in 1980, he won the North Bavarian Regional Show (his home area) in the youth class with his female "Jessy von der Wienerau". In 1990 he presented for the first time a breeding group at the BSZS ("Siegershow").

Through the years of continious work this kennel has produced many top ranking dogs and the kennel "von der Piste Trophe" is well known all over the world. The dog
that Erich Bösel is probably most proud of is Enschi von der Piste Trophe. In 1999 this fabulous female won the young dog class females at BSZS in Karlsruhe. At BSZS 2001 in Düsseldorf Enschi went directly into the VA group and became VA3.

In 1993 Erich Bösl became an SV judge. He has judged in many countries of the world. In 1999 he was nominated as Körmeister.  He is also LG 19 breed-representative (LG Zuchtwart) in Nothern Bavaria. Erich Bösel had been awarded the very enviable task of judging the working class females at BSZS 2010 in Nürnberg. In 2000 he judged the youth class males at BSZS in Bremen, and his very convincing winner that year was SG1 Bax von der Luisenstrasse. Bax later, in 2003, became VA1.

SV Körmeister Judge Albrecht Woerner

An independent architect by profession, Albrecht Woerner has been active in the SV since 1975.

Many famous dogs stem from his kennel “vom Thermodos,” crowned by the ultimate victory in 2006 of World Sieger Zamp vom Thermodos. The “Thermodos” kennel name owes to Herr Woerner’s fascination with Greek mythology. Living close to the Neckar river in Germany, Herr Woerner’s dogs often walked the banks and frolicked in the waters. The kennel name was born in 1978, when Herr Woerner recalled legends surrounding the river Thermodos located in Hades (especially those of Aphrodite, the goddess of love, bathing with her favorite mortal Adonis).

An SV Breed Judge since 1992 and Körmeister since 1997, Herr Woerner has judged all over the world, including the German Sieger Show in 2007 and 2008, and most recenty, the GSDCA-WDA Inaugural National Universal Sieger Championship.

GO TEAM HUERTA HOF!!!! 

For those not yet entered but considering entering, time may be short. Here's a list of what you will need to do to complete your entry for a puppy.

• Your puppy must be individually registered with the AKC.
• You must become a member of the GSDCA-WDA.
• Your puppy must be tattooed and/or micro chipped.
• You must obtain a verification form for tattoo/microchip from GDCA-WDA and have the form completed by a licensed veterinarian.
• You must obtain a 4 generation pedigree from the AKC.
• The completed verification form together with the 4 generation pedigree and fee must be sent to GSDCA-WDA for registering.
• Your puppy must have a current rabies certificate.
• Finally your puppy must be entered into the NASS.

If anyone needs help, just write. I'll help walk you through the process or point you in the right direction.

Good advice, Randy; I'm currently helping a friend through the process.

There are a couple of things can be done to streamline the process...order the 4 generation pedigree at the same time as the registration and download and print the tattoo/microchip verification form from the WDA website and take it with you and have the vet fill it out when the dog is microchipped.

In my experience, the things that will take the longest are getting your WDA membership processed and getting the tatto/microchip verification on the 4 generation pedigree.  I doubt that there is time now to announce a new member, ask for objections and process the membership before the show but there is an allowance for a pending membership on the entry form leaving the tattoo/microchip verification as the last potential sticking point.  I'm not sure how they will handle a situation in which you've sent in your verification form and pedigree but they haven't had time to process it yet...that would be a question for Cindy or Joy...I'd keep copies of the paperwork when you submit it, though, just in case.
