Wulf is a gorgeous upper-medium sized, dark sable male. He possesses an outgoing, confident personality, rock solid nerve and endless drive. He is the pride of our B litter and the product of months of careful research and planning. His sire, Ernst Weinbergblick, has proven himself time and time again both as a schutzhund competitor and as a producer of excellent working dogs. Ernst competed twice in the WUSV world schutzhund championships and three times in the Bundessiegerprufung, winning the BSP in 2000. Ernst progeny are in high demand in Europe due to his consistent production of excellent drive, hardness, fight and outstanding overall working ability. Ernst and his offspring aren't sporty dogs, they are dogs who show true power and aggression in their work. We feel very fortunate to have been able to utilize Ernst in our breeding program during his brief stay in the United States and we found him to be a perfect match for our foundation bitch, Wulf's dam, Ira, who has consistently produced for us her balanced drive, biddable and social nature, super nose and natural tracking talent, full and calm grips, bomb-proof nerve and that all important "on/off" switch.
We couldn't be happier with Wulf, as he epitomizes the goal we had for this breeding; melding together the strengths of both of his parents in perfect harmony. His tracking is superb. Like both of his parents, he shows great desire for the work, a deep nose and endless determination. His obedience is quick, correct and enthusiastic, always with strong focus, willingness and directability. He doesn't just show flash in obedience, he shows power. Constantly pushing his handler further and further and throwing himself at every exercise with complete dedication. In the bite work he is outstanding. Serious, strong barking, full and very hard bites, and quick strikes. He slams into the helper like a freight train, and when he's on the sleeve he doesn't just go along for the ride. He fights the helper constantly, trying to dominate his opponent. Helpers love to work Wulf as he presents a welcome challenge, always showing tremendous drive, hardness, power and intensity in his work.
Off the field he is a delightful companion and a true ambassador for the German Shepherd breed. His nerve is impeccable and he possesses a very bold and confident personality. Aloof with strangers, open and social with welcome guests, and very loving toward his family. Excellent with children, other dogs, puppies, and even our cats and horses, he is proving to be a wonderful pet in addition to an outstanding schutzhund dog. Whether at home or on the training field, he does everything we could ask with great willingness, enthusiasm, and heart.
