Ouch is a phenomenal female that was whelped here at Hillview. She stood out in the litter very early on.  She is a very intelligent, confident, happy, social female, that showed a very serious side on the field at an early age. She is the fastest and most agile female we have ever produced. She is a freight train that doesn't slow down on a courage test. Her desire to please and work shows in her tracking, 100 points on her IPO 1, IPO 2 and IPO 3.

Her sire, Isaac vom Bracheler See, competed in the Bundessiegerprüfung 2 times and the WUSV in 2009. Isaac's sire is one of our favorites, Olex de Valsory. Ouch's dam is our now retired, Yessy vom Welzbachtal. Yessy is a very strong and powerful female from strong maternal lines. Yessy's siblings, all females, are SchH3. Her granddam competed in the LGA.

Ouch resides in Germany and earned her titles in Germany with her handler Nils Freund, member of the Hillview Germany team. They are proving to be an excellent team. She will be busy training with Nils in 2013. Our plans are to have a litter from her late 2013/early 2014.

Lucy was whelped here at Hillview, from the L2 Hügelblick litter. She is from Drago vom Patriot’s first breeding, upon his arrival to the US, to our Conny vom Linzgau. It takes a team to make Hillview Kennels successful. Our good friend Gina Bishop Pfeffer imprinted and raised Lucy for her first year. Silke Dersch is now training Lucy in our SV club OG Hügelblick-Hirzenhain in Germany, where Lucy and Silke passed the BH.

She has an unbelievable pedigree. Her sire, Drago vom Patriot, is one of the most widely used studs in Germany and the USA. Drago’s sire, Nox von del Lupo Nero competed at the LGA several times, his dam, Eiwie vom bösen Bruderblick, was a 2 time SV BSP and 1 time FCI BSP competitor. Her sire was Aron vom Bracheler See, a Yoschy son. That is just the paternal side!

Lucy’s dam Conny vom Linzgau, Sch3, sire is Javir vom Talka Marda, 4 x LGA, 1st place 2008 BSP and went on to place 3rd that year at the WUSV. Lucy’s granddam, Aika vom schwarzen Vorro, Sch3 daughter of LGA and BSP competitor, Sid vom Haus Pixner.

Ussel is a young, IPO3, FH1 German import. We purchased her directly from the prestigious Salztablick kennel. In the past 30 years, they have bred many famous schutzhund competitors. On her paternal lineage, she has many solid Salztablick dogs, Granit Rose, BSP competitor, Uruk Schwarzen Milan. Her dam, Fraya vom Salztablick was a LGA competitor, sired by the famous Belgian, multiple WUSV competitor, Troll vom Haus Mellinda. 2nd place in 2000 WUSV.

Ussel is a solid black female with beautiful feminine qualities. She has the personality, strong nerves and temperament to die for. She is environmentally sound. She possesses all the great qualities that we feel make up a wonderful brood female for our kennel. She is sweet with all humans, old or young, especially the children. Fabulous with animals. But can turn on her protective side when necessary.

Ussel has arrived from Germany, pregnant by our stud male in Germany, D’Atze von Hügelblick. I knew without a doubt, that their physical traits and bloodlines will complement each other well.

Isis von Hügelblick, IPO1

HD-normal/ED normal

Sometimes things don’t go as planned. Never would I have imagined that due to personal circumstances, that Isis von Hügelblickwould fall back into our hands. Mike Holbrook, the owner of her brother, Ice von Hügelblick, definitely wanted the opportunity to meet her once she was available. We decided to do a co ownership with Mike. Together they did the IPO1. Isis happily resides with the Holbrook’s and is very happy living with her brother and half sister Andra vom casa Arado and romping around Wolfbrook Dog Club with lots of Hügelblick.

Isis came from our large 'I litter' full of outstanding littermates, including Ickky. Ickky was the only American born dog to compete on the USA team for the WUSV Championships in 2013. Not only is Isis as solid nerved as they get, like her mother Baghira von der Riesling Route, but she is as social and confident. Her mother Baghira is the matriarch of Hillview and one of our all time favorite producing females. Her sire is none other than Falk von den Wolfen. 3 X BSP competitor and sire of many LGA, BSP and WUSV competitors.

You can watch her early videos and see the level of intensity and desire to work at a young age.

The moment we arrived at the home of Brigitte Sobek, breeder of Mörfelder Land kennel in Germany, and met Franzi, we loved her energy and personality. The deal was sealed after having the opportunity to meet her half brother, Eyko, while we were there. We feel that Franzi has all the qualities in a female to make an excellent breeding female. She possesses the beauty, intelligence, strong nerves, drives, full grips, clear headedness and the gentleness that makes her excellent with children.

Franzi's pedigree is exceptional. Her dam, Buffy vom Mörfelder Land, produced her half brother, Caro vom Mörfelder Land. Caro won the 2006 Bundesseiger prufung and the WUSV at the very young age of 2 years.

Franzi's sire, Uno vom Stadtfeld, is a highly regarded, proven producer in Germany. He is highly sought after for his substance, power, pigment, drives, and very healthy bloodlines. We have waited patiently for Franzi to come to the states since October 2009. While in Germany we met with Javir vom Talka Marda's owner and trainer, Michaela Knoche. After discussing Franzi's bloodlines, Michaela liked the possible mating between Franzi and Javir vom Talka Marda and we arranged for Franzi to wait in Germany until she could be bred to Javir. Michaela informed us that there have only been four litters from Javir whelped in the United States. We are very honored to announce that the breeding that took place in Germany was successful. The puppies are due to arrive around April 1st.

SG Layla von Hugelblick, SchH3, FH (v score of 98 pts), Kkl 1

SV- "a" normal hips and normal elbows

DOB- 10/02/2009

At the tender young age of only 5 weeks, I knew there was something very special about Layla and it was not because she shares her sire's birthday. At 7 weeks, while her siblings were running wild in the kitchen, she was at the refrigerator wanting cheese and asking to perform her sitzs, platzs and work on focus. I had never witnessed anything like it. At about 3 months all by herself she was working on her flip finishes. She was doing her potty #1's and #2's on command also. Six months rolled around and our team, Roland and Sandro came in from Germany to do a seminar. She was done teething so it was time to start some fun bite work. I put her little harness on and took her out on the field to a puppy circle for the first time. She performed like an adult dog, it was quite amazing what a little natural she was. She was doing little courage tests with a rag. Her barking was excellent and most importantly all of her grips were very full and calm. After she was done, Sandro said "This one must come to Germany to be trained, titled and she must be bred".

At a year old more confirmation came when our SV judge from Germany stayed in our home for a week. As soon as he arrived he asked "Where is the little black female from last year?" He saw her when she was only 7 weeks. After watching her out playing and hanging out with her in the house, he couldn't believe she was only a year old. That night he raved about her character, intelligence and conformation as he fed her table food from the dinner table. He wanted to take Layla home, but she was already spoken for.

November 3rd 2010, my husband and I drove to Atlanta with Layla and boarded a plane to Frankfurt, Germany. That weekend we took my little girl to a beautiful little town north of Frankfurt. There she met her new German family, excellent handler Jürgen Rein, his wife and daughter. Layla has little creek running by her exceptional brand new kennel in the back yard that she shares with multiple Sch3, FH male, Daiko vom Baumgarten. She is settled in now and having a blast. We will keep you posted on her progress. We hope that Layla can accomplish great things before she comes back home. Above you can see some videos of her at 15 months.

One can't help but falling in love with her once you are greeted with her intense her dark eyes. She is a very happy, social and confident female with a lush mahogany sable coat. She has a strong head with distinct mask around her eyes. She has substantial bone, strong legs and beautiful tight feet for a female.

She is very athletic with extreme drive and lightning fast reflexes combined with a very clear head. She is so interactive with her play, that she throws balls at you when she wants to play. She interacts really well with children. We can't say enough about Leni. And it gets better; Leni comes from the most exceptional, proven, world champion, Belgian bloodlines in schutzhund history. Not only have her bloodlines produced world competition dogs from around the world, but Leni is a direct descendant of multiple WUSV champions. Two weeks after we purchased Leni, the bloodlines proved themselves once again in Seville Spain at the WUSV. Leni's half brother, Como vom Bonauer Wald won the world championship with a V score of 291 points. Leni's sire is Eros von der Mohnwiese, winner of the 2004 and 2005 WUSV, his sire the very famous producer, Tom van't Leefdaalhof won the 1999 WUSV. Tom's sire, Querry von Haus Antverpa never won, but participated in the WUSV 4 times! Queery's sire Orry von Haus Antverpa won WUSV two times and a FCI world championship. She has multiple BSP competitors on her dam's side, Timmy von der bösen Nachbarschaft, Mink vom Haus Wittfeld, and Gildo vom Körbelbach. Gildo was the producer of many great dogs with the likes of Blacky vom Neuen Lande, WUSV champion and BSP champion, he was the brother to Berry vom Neuen Lande, Leni's great grandsire.

We are fortunate once again for our team in Germany for finding us this spectacular female. We are excited for what the future holds in our breedings with Leni here at Hillview Kennels. She is definitely adding intensity to the family.

Planka comes to us from our Baghira von der Riesling Route's former owner. We can't thank Torsten Mink enough for giving us the opportunity to add her to the Hillview family. Planka was raised in Torsten's home with his family. She was trialed all the way to the LGA, by Torsten. Her IPO3 scores are very impressive, first IPO3 with a V scores in all phases 96/97/97-290. 2nd IPO3, another V score of 97/93/96-286! Planka competed in August of 2012 (#8) LGA with 93/91/85-269. We couldn't ask for a more proven female on the trial field, in the home with a family, and best of all, she has proven that she is a wonderful mother and producer. She whelped a litter of 8 very healthy, substantial, balanced, and solid nerved puppies,last fall. I had the pleasure of seeing them for myself.

Planka has some of the best working bloodlines in her pedigree, especially in her maternal line. Her dam, Mandy vom Wällerhorst's litter had many schutzhund 3 titled dogs, including Mika vom Wällerhorst a BSP competitor. The sire of that litter was none other than 3 X BSP and WUSV competitor Falk von den Wölfen. Planka's maternal line goes back to the famous BSP V1 Gotthilf von der Kine.

Her sire Elliot von Prevent and grandsire Hutch vom dunklen Zwinger , are very well known, proven studs, with over 300 progeny each, in Germany alone. Hutch is the son of the legendary producer Yoschy von der Döllenwiese.

We are very excited about what the future has in store with Planka contributing to Hillview Kennels' breeding program.
