Tim Abfuhr - Page 2

Bob is in greensboro nc..... Yukon earned his schutzhund 3 this past spring.

gustav....we've had this conversation recently,with so many pedigrees floating around in my head,it was hard for me to make a connection right away,we both agreed that TIM was a good dog to have in a pedigree....i totally forgot that TIM was(is) a TROLL son...as you're well aware,TIM sired JANKO VORWERKSWALD,oddly enough i had a JANKO son in my yard for about 6 months....TOM VOM SUNNENBRINK...clean kennel dog,super drives,tracked like a maniac,super article indicator,excellent agility on field equiptment,very nice retreives....huge dog(26+ in ,105 lbs) a bit soft in the pasterns,but still excellent speed....handler hard and a real"GROWN MAN" of a dog...old school ALPHA TYPE. a little too intimidating overall for me,oddly enough he's being handled by a 100 lb woman now and he seems happy...there was another son over in georgia(JANKO son,also named JANKO)who was cross trained as a guard dog at a high performance mustang shop that was being constantly being broken into....JANKO put the stops on that enterprise in short order..i'll spare you the gorrie details,but it wasn't pretty.so i would have to say that after being that close to"TIM ABFUHR" progeny,it's almost a slam dunk when bred into stable bitches to bring character and presence to the traditional lines and TIM could very well go down as one of the mainstays of the working lines.

Gustav.....Trial is being held at the Armory in Spring City, Pa.

Thanks Rog,
I will call you later this week to get the 411 on these two dogs. I think Tim is in both Ewo and Wasko's pedigree also. Both of those dogs are absolute manstoppers as I know firsthand!!!
Thanks Ron....hope to see ya tomorrow.
