Of further interest to us are lines of dogs from USA kennels (active 1960’s into 2000) who purposely bred dogs for performance competition, with pedigrees full of OTCH, UD, TD back through many generations, producing SANE dogs of excellent trainability & versatility, bringing in valuable old herding HGH & DDR lines. Most notable of these dogs are;
~ G Jamie v. Stolzenfels SchH1 CD, daughter of 1979 DDR Sieger Bodo vom Grafental one of 2 foundation breeding males used by guide and seeing eye breeding programs. Often ranked within the yearly top 10 producing dams of working titled offspring in the USA during the 1990’s according to GSDCA records.
~ Hodenhof’s Jette von Fernheim SchH1 CDX TD HT, used as brood bitch for guide dog program. Daughter of HGH Herding Sieger Gauner vom Kirschental,… Both ranked within the yearly top 10 producing sire/dam of working titled offspring in the USA during the 1990’s according to GSDCA records.
~ Valiantdale’s Boss vom Icon CDX FH TD SchH3, Boss was of sold temperament, a very correct & easily trained dog. His sire Valiantdale’s Icon vom Irwin UT TD SchH3 consistently ranked within the yearly top 10 producing sires of working titled offspring in the USA during the 1990’s according to GSDCA records (often ranked the # 1 sire).
Valiantdale along with Fernheim, were kennels that produced some very good working dogs. 

The pedigree of Gabi provides excellent genetic diversity, working ability & health... In the words of z Pohranicni straze / Jinopo CZ geneticist- Jiri Novotny ... "Working blood refreshed with beauty" like Quanto Jipo-me and our Lary Bret-Bett & Pen z Jirkova Dvora etc.
