Envy vom Quellwasser
Envy is our promising young dog. She is from a very special breeding, coming from an old line thanks to frozen semen. Please take a moment to read about her facinating pedigree.
Mother: SG Zami vom Haus Pixner, IPO1, AD a-normal hips and elbows, was bred by the famous Austrian working line German Shepherd Kennel “Haus Pixner” that has bred a number of top working dogs who have competed at the regional and national level Schutzhund/IPO competitions in Germany and have become an integral part of today’s working line German Shepherds.
The mother line of all of these dogs go back to SG Lona vom Bayrischen Oberland, SchH3, an Uwe vom Kirschental daughter with her mother being a Grief zum Lahntal daughter. Rudolf Pixner, the breeder of Haus Pixner kennel, bred Lona to Ilko vom Peko Haus (one of the strongest and toughest dog from that period) to produce Fenja vom Haus Pixner. Fenja bred to Ernst vom Weinbergblick (a World Champion, and from the sister kennel to Haus Pixner), produced Mary vom Haus Pixner and Mona vom Haus Pixner, who were inbred 3-2 on Lona vom Bayrischen Oberland through the mother lines of the sire and the dam thus establishing the type and character the kennel wanted to propagate in their future generations.
Mary stayed with the Haus Pixner kennel and went on to produce a number of top competition dogs including Sid, Yak, Yankee, Felix, Filiph, Foxi, Nessi, Nils, Ozzy, Otti, Querri all vom haus Pixer kennel), and Mona went to the Weinbergblick kennel and produced many good dog including Mike vom Weinbergblick. Rudolf Pixner bred Mary to Xaver vom Michelskirchlein and kept Nessi from that breeding for himself because Nessi was true to the character from his bloodline, i.e., a strong and stable dog who had nerve and instincts to do real life protection work.
Nessi then went on to produce many good dogs including Wotan vom Haus Pixner who has competed two times at the WUSV on the Austrian team. He bred Nessi to another legendary strong dog from his region, Malu vom Reimsloherwald, a Karn vom Fegelhof son, that produced Zami vom Haus Pixner. Malu’s littermates (Mec and Mira) were also good dogs and produced a number of top working dogs who have good health, character, type, and pigmentation. Malu’s pedigree is also full of dogs who have very strong fighting drive, full and hard grips, tight ligamentation, and jumping ability which only complimented the mother’s (Nessi’s) pedigree.
Father: SG Olsen vom Leipheimer Moor, SchH3, OFA excellent was bred by Elmar Mannes, who owned both his father – Ilko vom Peko Haus and Zita vom Karlmitblick. Elmar repeated this breeding five times (for good reason) and this breeding produced a number of top competition dogs including Laines, Qyosch, and Blackie (male). A number of dogs from this breeding were used by other breeders. Olsen was imported to Canada by Doug Deacon as an 8 week old pup and was owned by one of his club members. After working Olsen in Canada, Elmar felt that he let the best dog leave the Country. Heinz Balonier came to judge a trial in Canada and offered $10,000 and a trip to Germany to the handler. Olsen was worked by Dorwin Anderson in Lower Mainland Club and according to him he was the toughest and the most powerful dog he has worked with no handler aggression. Olsen was a very confident, and dominant dog and was always easy with the kids. Elmar always felt that Ilko was one of his best dogs and people who met Zita’s father Grisha vom Schwarzen Milan felt the same way. Olsen produced many good dogs in Canada but unfortunately he was not owned by a famous handler or a top competitor so only the local people or top German helpers who worked the dog knew him.
