2014 Bundessiegerzuchtschau in Nürnberg Working Males V 17 Large, powerful and substantial, masculine male dog, which is built in correct building conditions. Very good character with well formed expressive head. Well developed topline with high set withers, firm back and well laid back croup of sufficient length. Good forehand and very good hindquarters angulations. The chest proportions are balanced. The front position is straight. The stride and step sequences are parallel and absolutely straight. The sequence of movements is productive and space-gain with effective replenishment and good forequarters. The advantages of Ken lie in his absolutely masculine male character with good substance and bone strength combined with very correct height and length ratio. In addition, he has good general strength, as well as good condition and willingness to run. I hope that this Zamp grandson will have a positive influence on the breeding and will be able to continue the paternal line successfully. TSB: A: more attentive and temperamental to go along with. B: even more energetic to fend off the attack, grasping harder is annoying. C: more determined catching up, even fuller grasp, more attentive banish, stay closer to the helper WZ(3/3)
2013 Bundessiegerzuchtschau Youth Dog (12-18 Months) Males SG 8 Ken is a large, very powerful and substantial, bone-strong, in correct building conditions built, dry and firm male. He has very good character and strong head formation. The high withers, the harmonious topline as well as the well positioned croup of good length result in a very good topline. With good forehand and very good hindquarters angulation he shows a pronounced chest formation with long underchest. The front lines are straight, his correct step sequence is to be praised. He convinces by his very ground covering gaits with powerful supply and free step forward and has reached an already considerable degree of maturity for his age. Ken was presented to me at two LG breeding shows and a total of three times. I would have liked to have been able to judge him in a larger youth class. Ken goes back via his sire Quattro to one of the most successful sires, Zamp Thermodos. But also the maternal line deserves to be mentioned, as there are such successful sires like Vegas as well as the excellent sire Ambra from Team Baierblick. His sister was rated SG 14 in the youth class bitches. Ken is inbred in wide inbreeding to Ursus von Batu and Jango Fürstenberg. It is to be hoped and also wished that with him perhaps the paternal line over Zamp can be continued. In my opinion, he is especially suitable for improving bone strength and substance as well as in cases of lack of strength.
