surveyed considerable hardness, courage and fight drive. His
strength of nerve is outstanding. He is absolutely 100%

His working drives, as noted by Novotny are considerable! Lary

without reason. His protection skills are excellent with bites that

A dog that was not up for
commercial sale, Lary has been purchased directly out of a top
breeding program of working dogs in the Czech Republic. Lary
was utilized there for the past 2 years as a top producing stud dog
for this world famous working dog breeding program, owned and operated
by both the former head of genetics and director of training of the
world-renowned Z Pohranicni straze (z PS) kennel. At the relatively young age of 5 -1/2, Lary has
sired well over 40 successful working litters at various top
breeding programs in Europe. It is interesting to note that
Lary received the ZVV 3 title under the training and handling of
Jiri Novotny. There are only a few dogs each year that are of high
enough caliber to be able to obtain the prestigious ZVV 3 title!!

Jiri Novotny has this to say
about Lary:
Hello Ramona,
He has gained ZVV3 in 2005. I did it with him. He is the only
son of CAK with ZVV3. His progeny I know has great retrieve drive,
great biting and excellent working willingness. Their use is in S&R,
Law Enforcement and top Sport. Lary has been used in different
kennels.
Best Regards,
Jiri
Jiri has also stated to me in
various correspondence that "LARY keeps the hips clean very
well. His progeny is full of energy with good pigmentation, great
ball and prey drives and excellent biting. His progeny is medium
large, with lot of energy and working abilities for any purpose. He
has an excellent blood from both sides. I use him to breed to
any line I have because he is a great refresher of my blood. "
Lary's bloodlines on both sides are
outstanding. Lary's mother ONI Honajzer the
result of beauty and top training is a strong, solid black female.
She brings wonderful working blood to Lary's excellent
pedigree a 4,4 linebreeding on the exceptional producing stud dog
INGO von Rudingen!!! Her
grandmother, ASTA v.
Hainecker belongs to 100% DDR (East German) blood going
back to the best of the old vintage DDR stud dogs in history
Don v Rolandsteich in her 3rd generation, along with v. Osterberg
and v.Grafental lines. Her grandfather
EMON ze Znojemskeho hradu leads the old style show
line over VILO v. Arminius a ZVV2 level
dog. EMON himself had very nice IPO3, ZVV2 rating and in his
time he belonged to the hardest protection dogs in the Czech
Republic! ONI is a very well know and well proven producer of exceptional
working dogs!!
Oni is also the mother of:
Piko Bret-Bett: ZVV3, IPO3, FH1, ZPS2, ZPO1; Hips/Elbows: a-Normal.
And the grandmother of:
Atila z Kociciho dvora: ZVV1 (96/90/94), IPO1 (93/85/92), IPO2
(93/83/91), IPO3 (91/80/89), VPG1 (97/91/91), VPG2 (94/84/87), ZPO1
(92/90), Hips/Elbows: 0/0.
Both
these males are currently being utilized as top producing stud dogs for the world
renown working kennel which is owned by the former head of genetics for the z Pohranicni straze government ran kennel.
From his father's side, Lary belongs to
the 6th blood line founded by Utz v. Haus Schutting
over the great DAR z Przma and then
DRAGO z Humnan over CIR z Vrtovske doliny
over ABBE z Ansy and GERO Chmelovy
kvitek to his father CAK Pisecna boure.
It is worth noticing that all these ancestors represented
the Czech Republic in top competitions and that almost all of them
represented at FCI World Championship and WUSV Championship!
His first 2 litters at Sapphire Shepherds have
produced pups that are now being prepared for working fields such as
Search and Rescue, detection, breeding programs, and top sport. Lary strengthens bone
structure and required pigmentation. He brings hard working blood
refreshed with beauty. He has well demonstrated the ability to be bred to
various lines with much success.
