Kaiser was a large, dark sable male with rich pigment and a gorgeous head. His pedigree is phenomenal, with lines to Greif zum Lahntal, Bernd Lierberg, Urs aus der Hopfenstraße, Anderl vom kleinen Pfahl, Arthus vom Lünsholz, Caro Allerswald and Enno Beilstein. His sire, Ron, is an import from the renowned Peko Haus kennel, and a son of the famous Karlo vom Peko Haus. Kaiser's dam, Bianca, is one of the most incredible bitches we have ever had the pleasure to know. She is a Queck von der Krötteeck daughter out of Tacky de Brucelee, a Canadian national schutzhund champion and WUSV championship participant, and a proven producer of excellent working dogs.

Kaiser was, in a word, incredible. He had rock solid nerves and extremely strong drives. He was a very hard, dominant and confident dog who never backed down from a challenge. He showed drive and power in every phase. We raised Kaiser from a young pup, and he was always a joy to live with and to work. He was a happy, willing worker who tackled any task set before him with great enthusiasm. His tracking was intense, his obedience flashy and attentive, and his protection work was second to none. His bites were naturally full and he had a crushing grip. He hit hard and has intense fight drive toward the helper. He was one of our first schutzhund dogs, and we couldn't have asked for a better teacher.

Yet even more amazing than his outstanding working ability was his temperament. He could come right off the protection field into a crowd of children and as he let them hug him and sit on him like he's a horse, his only reaction would be a lot of tail wagging and face licking. His friendly and outgoing personality, solid nerves, confident attitude and intense drive made him the ideal dog both on and off the training field. Kaiser was a perfect example of what the German Shepherd Dog breed was designed to be; a tireless worker, faithful partner, vigilant guardian, and gentle companion.
