Ghira is our first German import Giant Schnauzer!
She arrived at 9 weeks old from Von
Klingsgarten Kennels. We had been in contact with owner Rolf
Wassmuth for a couple of years, however one thing or another would
prevent us from getting a pup! After our D-litter with sire Ascan
Von Klingsgarten, we were determined to import a puppy from sister
Aica! We were very excited that Rolf chose Kastor von der Villa
Klara as the stud for this litter, since we've heard that he is
a very strong male! In 2004 Kastor won the
BLSP!!!

Ghira is an independent natured bitch with a great balance of
prey and defense drives. She also has a pronounced hunt drive
and keeps all the critters on the property on the lookout.
Ghira is very energetic which has earned her the nickname "eight
seconds" in reference to how long a bull ride is supposed
to last. ;) She is a little rodeo queen.
In
2008 she achieved her VPG1 with Ron and was TSB rated "a"
or "pronounced"!
In
2009 she achieved her VPG2
with SG rating,
and her TSB was rated "pronounced" once again!
In 2010 Ghira achieved her VPG3 with a G rating, and a "pronounced"
in courage! The remarkable part of this achievement is that Ghira
had only weaned the H-litter 4 weeks before our trial!

Ghira spent the spring of 2008 being a mom for
the first time but got back to work with her new handler and achieved
her VPG 1 at the SWDA
club trial September 20 and 21, 2008. Ghira had another beautiful
litter in June 2009 and was back to work preparing for her VPG
2 which she achieved September
19, 2009. Ghira (with Ron Murray) with a score of 90/90/91 and
"pronounced" on her TSB! This score was also enough
to achieve the High in Trial for the weekend!
Ghira's scores on her VPG 3 weren't quite as stellar as previous
years however, she had just regained her girlish figure from raising
FOURTEEN puppies!
Ghira
and Degen will have one more litter for sure, possibly two, and
will enjoy some semi-retirement so we can focus our efforts on
their amazing son Glock!
